Don't tempt me.

I acknowledge that 77 RBIs is 77 RBIs. I couldn't imagine disliking a Yankee with 77 RBIs this much:

"Later in the game, Mark Teixeira had a run-in with a fan. With Chris Colabello up to lead off the ninth inning, Teixeira raced after a high foul ball. As he stretched far into the seats, the ball landed just out of reach of his glove. An overanxious fan made a hard play for the ball, reaching and bumping Teixeira's shoulder. The 35-year-old responded with anger, making slight contact with the fan and yelling at him.

Texieria said he was OK.

'He just ran into me. He probably just really wanted that baseball,' Teixeira said.
Mostly kidding, Teixeira added, 'We need to tell the fans you can insult, but you cannot assault. We know you're upset. We lost three in a row. We're sorry. Just keep it to insults, not assaults.'"

Insult you? I'd never be able to insult you, Mr. Foul Territory. You just seem like a cool dude who gets lots of clutch hits and would be a good guy to have a post game beer with. Loads of laughs.
