A week's worth of frustration exploded in Richie Sexson's brain as a fourth-inning pitch came at him at face level. Within seconds, Sexson was...

From the Rangers broadcasters (paraphrasing): "If they want to hit someone, they would hit a good hitter - not Sexson, who couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat." "Gutless 6-foot-7, .200 hitting formerly good player." "If you want to fight, fight. But throw a helmet at a guy?" Video via Awful Announcing .

Mariners 1B Richie Sexson charges the mound after freaking out by a high fastball that was nowhere near his head. Rangers color man Tom grieve deftly describes Sexson's cowardly act. "That is a gutless six foot seven, 200 hitting, formerly good player, what a joke" Sexson better be careful or the number one Rangers fan in America, President GW Bush will sick the NSA on him for this punk ...

The Big Lead
Rangers 5, Mariners 0: Richie Sexson was hit by a pitch (read: the ball didn’t hit him and wasn’t even close to doing so) on a day when his team failed to score a run, so he felt compelled to brawl. Safe to say he was frustrated, perhaps because he’s not earning his pay. You can view the video right here . Rangers announcer Tom Grieve drops the quote of the night in the ...
Sexson Should Be Suspended —
Real Sports Bloggers
Well, last night’s game was interesting, wasn’t it.
Seriously, Richie Sexson needs to be suspended. That pitch that Kason Gabbard threw at him last night wasn’t even close to hitting his mellon. And he went off.
And using your batting helmet in a fight is kind of dirty.
All in all, I’m disappointed that Gerald Laird didn’t try [...]

Last night, during the Rangers/Mariners game that about 4 people were watching, Mariners 1st basemen Richie Sexson took objection to a pitch that was high, but about 83 feet from him. I mean honestly, the pitch was closer to my chin than yours, Richie.
Anyway, being the little girl he is, he charged the mound in [...]

I know its not the Sox but Richie Sexson killed my fantasy team last year with his awful hitting and in yesterday's game he proved that he can't hit in a fight either. (he does get a good throw in with the helmet) By the location of the pitch he is obviously not seeing the ball very well. Fenway West- The Western Home to Red Sox Nation
What was Richie Sexson Thinking? —
My Pinstripes
Richie Sexson instigated a bench clearing brawl after he was hit by a pitch, he was brushed back a pitch didn't come close to him. Kudos to The Big Lead for the find. Pitcher Kason Gabbard , who had just been reactivated, looked like a deer caught in 6'8" headlights.
Mariners Richie Sexson vs Rangers Kason Gabbard Bench Clearing Fight —
FanIQ Blog
We had't had a good bench clearing, batter storming the mound fight this year.
Thanks to Richie Sexson's lunacy that's been corrected.
Like these Rangers announcers, you'll have some trouble figuring out why Sexson charges the mound. The pitch doesn't hit him. You'll hear that broadcaster Tom Grieve isn't a big fan:
"That pitch wasn't even close. That pitch is a foot ...
Richie Sexson is not a zombie?!?! —
Wax Heaven
When I was 15 years old I thought Richie Sexson was bound for glory. My theory was a bit skewed but somewhat logical. You see, Jose Canseco was 6′4 and hit 44 home runs once, Mark McGwire was just an inch taller and hit 52 in 1996 so what do I make of Sexson, who stood 6 feet 8 inches? 100 home runs, maybe more? Of course, it didn’t quite work out that way and for the most part ...

Go Rangers!
By now, if you’re a Rangers fan, you’ve seen and heard about the big fight tonight, which was mostly just a bunch of handbag swinging. The clear exception was Richie Sexson, who I would expect to get at least a 10 day suspension. You want to throw punches, that’s one thing, but throwing a helmet can cause serious injury. The guys on the Rangers broadcast said he’s ...
