Millar running his mouth

"One hundred percent," Millar said when asked if he thought the pitch was intentional. "I was upset they threw him out of the game because he's really good hitting. He's a cute little fella, he didn't throw that hard and he doesn't have very good stuff. So it's probably a good idea they threw him out, because it probably would've been in Monument Park."
"There just needs to be a thing about how to throw at a guy, that's all. Stay in the waist-below, it's part of baseball. You don't want to mess with anybody's career," Millar said. "He doesn't throw that hard, so it wouldn't have hurt, but I wouldn't have minded facing him."
"If they can't throw in," Millar said, "then throw down, that's all it is. It's not a big deal. Ramirez tries his little heart out, but I love facing him. He doesn't have many out pitches. [He is] fortunate he's in the big leagues."
Considering that Edwar has a 2.35 ERA and in 38.1 has allowed 21 hits and struck out 44 (K/9 of 10.4), I'd say Edwar must have a pretty good out pitch.
Whats even funnier is Millar saying he would crush the pitch, considering he is 1 for 4 with a single and 3 STRIKEOUTS against Edwar "No out pitch" Ramirez.
