So, earlier today, Brian Bruney told Mike Ashmore the following, when asked about last night's game:

“Unbelievable, I’ve never seen anything like that. I have, but in high school. Couldn’t have happened to a better guy on the mound, either. He’s got a tired act. I think that’s bad, but two years ago, when he lost the game…I don’t know if anybody saw it, I did. He was in Oakland and he was pitching for Anaheim, didn’t get a call, and so he was like complaining. The catcher threw it back and he just kind of did one of these (Bruney half-heartedly holds his arm out) and hit off his glove and bounced behind and the guy from third scored and they won the game. He gets what he deserves, man. I just don’t like watching the guy pitch. I think it’s embarassing.”

Francisco Rodriguez gave a brief comment to Peter Abraham: "I don’t even know who that guy is," Rodriguez said.

As an update, Peter Abraham followed up with Brian Bruney about his remarks from earlier in the day, as well as Rodriguez's reply. "I stand by what I said," Bruney said. "But I'm not going to start a media war with K-Rod. I don't know him, he's probably a good dude. If he says he doesn't know me, he doesn't know me. I learned to play the game a different way."
