it's hard to believe that the Manager, Mickey Vernon put up with that s***
he didn't take him out - or bench him the next game - he just let him do his assinine thing

I saw willie Davis do a similar stunt with the rangers in 1975. He felt he was thrown at in a game, the Mgr (think jt was billy Martin before he was fired.. if not it was frank lucchesi) disagreed and didn'torder retaliation. So for a half inning Davis sat down in center field in protest.
It was bizarre
