After the Dodgers' brawl (June 10) against the Padres, Darryl Strawberry said he stayed on the bench because he couldn't afford to hurt his back by getting in a fight.
I'm so glad his back healed so much in five days to allow him to involve himself in Tuesday's brawl with the Rockies.
With that salary, can't he afford a secretary or something to help him keep straight just when exactly it is that he is hurt and when he is not.
