Better Than That Spiezio Soul Patch

The White Sox and the Royals had a bench-clearing brawl yesterday, after White Sox pitcher DJ Carassaco plunked Royals catcher Miguel Olivo with a pitch in the 5th inning. Olivo wound up throwing his punches at White Sox catcher AJ Pierzynski.



This whole brouhaha just seemed like a long con to draw Pierzynski out into the open so somebody could slug him.

It was also a nice way to introduce the world to Pierzynski's new dye job. If he's hoping to look like mid-90's Annie Lennox, then he's a success.

Unfortunately, he probably has a brother-in-law named Rocco who found some blond wigs "that fell off the truck." Look for the "Pier-Wigski Blond Wig" (trademark pending) to be draped on sweaty heads in US Cellular throughout September.
