Talk:A. J. Pierzynski

message: Does anyone have a reference for the nickname "Dr. P" for Pierzynski? As a White Sox fan, I've near heard nor seen anyone ever call AJ this. Is this from his time with the Twins or the Giants? Or is this someone's attempt at a neologism? — Linnwood 04:59, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Doctor P?   

message: Tried to clarify the application of the uncaught third strike rules. I have added the link to the Official Baseball Rules Rule 6, which includes the rules on the uncaught third strike.  In addition, I rewrote some of the narrative to conform to NPOV.  I am thinking of adding a reference to the rule change that was made after the 2005 season in response to that particular incident, but I am unsure whether it belongs in this article, which is primarily about Mr. Pierzynski.  However, it is not clear that outcome of the play in question would necessarily have been different had the rule change been in place. Justus R 21:28, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Can we clean that section up? References would be great but of course I am too lazy :). Seriously, I will try to help even though I am a football fan :). Cheers! --Tom 16:23, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There was a pretty good description of the incident, after a lot of back and forth editing.  However, someone deleted it and I did not object.  It is one of Pierzynski's most famous moments in baseball, so it probably does belong in the article.  I will dig up the best version I've seen and substitute it for the version that is in there now.

replies: text: Thanks, I actually remeber the play. I do watch baseball from the playoffs one :). I just hope the new version will just stick to the facts and avoid original research/commentary. Cheers! --Tom 18:16, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

text: I think the new version works - t is NPOV and has citations to the rule and to an interview with the Home Plate Umpire published at MLB.com. Justus R 19:34, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Ok, my spelling SUCKS, but it seems that this article could use more sources, especially in the lead paragraph. I added the fact template for now. Thanks in advance and cheers! --Tom 20:07, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

message: ::I have posted two references to an article about AJ kicking his trainer in the groin after a collision at home plate when the trainer asked AJ how he felt. Why does this keep getting removed? Two independent references of this fact have been presented, but it keeps getting removed. I do not understand. --Anonymous 01:08, 21 Oct 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I clicked on the one source that was given and nothing came up (other sources on the page worked). --Brewcrewer 03:16, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, your sources are as unreliable as you are. 65.96.23.113 (talk) 15:50, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Also: this past year: one player (Manny), shoved a Red Sox employee to the ground and the story broke the next day. Another player, Shawn Chacon, attacked his GM and the story broke almost immediately. Do you really think these things would be covered up, because the trainer just did not want to hurt the team? That's a load of crap, and Bruce Jenkins knows nothing about Baseball.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.96.23.113 (talk) 16:46, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why Does Article Keep Getting Removed? 

message: There has been no discussin here regarding neutrality since the article had the large edit nearly a year ago.  I see no reason to keep the neutrality tag.  If anyone disagrees, please speak up. Justus R (talk) 14:50, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removing "Neutrality Dispute" Tag 

message: Reverted two edits which changed the wording of the description of the incident with Barrett.  The newer wording would have it that Pierzynski's action "caused" Barret to hit him.  NPOV would be to describe it something like "Barrett reacted by ...."  However, I thought the previous wording was sufficiently clear, descriptive and neutral, so only reverted it.  Let me know if you have other thoughts on the matter. Justus R (talk) 12:38, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
