Fielder's normally friendly face had turned into a scowl that could peel the paint off the clubhouse wall. Suddenly, the 262-pound first baseman shouted a word symbolizing frustration and anger. Almost everybody looked up.
Then he boomed, "We've got to gather ourselves."
After a pause, there was another shock word that reverberated through the clubhouse. Nobody else said a word, and a muted tone characterized the clubhouse until the last players left.
I like that he's a player that won't except loosing and is not afraid to let the team know about it.
I bet the "word symbolizing frustration and anger" was a F-bomb and the "We've got to gather ourselves" can be translated to "we got to get our F'n Sh*t together around here!"
And he goes out and backs it up. Leader, enforcer, I like it either way.
