5.7.02: Excerpts from Trot Nixon's  interview with Joe Castiglione on WEEI:

Trot:  "I read the reports and some of the things they said about me trying to hurt someone and what they said wasn't true... it was a brand new bat, I didn't tarp it up enough... the players' union will take of things, my focus is on these next three games with Oakland. We're going to keep our focus out here through this tough stretch of games.

It's all kind of baffling, all kind of funny how you figure it out. It was a total surprise to me. I know what happened to me, the bat slipped out of my hands... I'm not sweatin' it one bit. They misinterpreted my remarks (not going to push us around)... getting hit by the ball (Rupe) dictates what is going to happen out there. We didn't start it. When you have hit-batsmen, that starts it off... I don't know what Rupe was doing, he had good control out there, only one walk...

No one intentionally tries to hurt anyone out there, the bat slipped out of my hands."


Shea has his say:

"Whether pitches were intentionally thrown at my head or not, I don't know...and I don't care. But it's good that we have a team that will retaliate to these things. Not that there was any retaliation by Nixon or Castillo. I haven't spoken to them about that, it would just be speculation on my part.

But it good to know that this is a team that sticks together.
