For the record, I believe Farnsworth has tackled two people in his major league career in two separate incidents. Hence the confusion.

Well A.J. is the type of guy you love to have on your team, and hate if he palys for the other team....

Absolutely..

That is too funny.. Farnsworth is the man..

And the Nolan Ryan-Ventura fight was unbeatable.. Best thing I've ever seen!..

I think it hardly constituted a fight: Ventura ran up to Ryan and practically buried his head in Ryan's bosom.

I will never forget that old NYY Coach, I belive it was Zimmer, going down swinging against the Red Sox..

Yep, Pedro grabbed that watermelon head of his and threw that man down on the ground. Pedro didn't have to do that. The man was about 97 years old.

Seconded, I don't know anything about an Affeldt (Jeremy Affeldt?) fight, but I can't get the image of Sean Casey staggering back to the dugout bloodied out of my head.  Farnsworth was a Cub and Casey was a Red, I'm pretty sure it was '04.  And Casey's not a little guy either.

EDIT:  I'm wrong, Sean Casey was not involved in the fight I'm think of.  And it was '03.  http://www.cincypost.com/2003/06/20/reds06-20-2003.html  Here's the link.  It was pitcher Paul Wilson.  Kinda looks like Casey though...   But the conclusion that you don't mess with Kyle Farnsworth remains true, despite the false premises.

verb

"Wilson, who had to lean backward to avoid being clipped by the pitch, took a few steps out of the batter's box and glared at Farnsworth. They jawed at each other, each taking cautious steps toward the other. Finally when they were separated by only about three feet, they tangled. Wilson swung at Farnsworth, who grabbed Wilson low and body-slammed him to the ground. "

Yeah.. I wouldnt mess with that guy.
