words for braves pitcher jason mott who sent him back to the dugout with a quick pitch strikeout. what was said is unclear but it was bad enough for a warning from home plate umpire and benches to spill out on the field. the next innings batista sends a home run into left field and accents it with a big bat flip before rounding the bases. he has words with catcher suzuki and benches clear again. atlanta wins it 8-4 and braves pitcher eric o flaherty who game up the home run had comments about the incident after the game. it s turning to look at me stuff. it s not even about winning anymore. he wants to hit a home run in a fife-run game and throw the bat around, i mean, surprised he s ready to fight again after last year, but he s throwing some looks around, so, it is what it
