Sexson Is Determined to Charge the Mound

Here's the scene in Seattle last night where Richie Sexson apparently decided to charge the mound because ... well ... I'm not really sure why. I guess he demands you throw him a strike, sir!:

Yeah, so, um, overreact much? If that pitch was about a foot lower it's in the strikezone. I suppose after two Rangers batters had already been plunked, Sexson went to the plate with kickin' some ass already in his head. At least he admitted that throwing the helmet was bush league. The guy is like eight feet tall. Use that 70-inch reach to beat down your opponent.

And excuse me, guy playing peacekeeper, but who are you and what have you done with Milton Bradley?

Update: Big League Stew has video from the Rangers broadcast, in which they call Sexson a "gutless, six-foot-seven, .200-hitting, formerly good player."
