Mets pitcher rips Nats cheerleading Incensed at the chants emanating from the Washington dugout during the Mets' 10-4 loss Monday night at Shea, Mets pitcher Nelson Figueroa ripped the Nationals afterward. "They were cheerleading in the dugout like a bunch of softball girls," Figueroa said. "I'm a professional, just like anybody else. I take huge offense to that. If that's what a last-place team needs to do to fire themselves up, so be it. I think you need to show a little bit more class, a little bit more professionalism. They won tonight, but again, in the long run, they are who they are." New York Daily News ---------------------------------------------- You've got to be crapping me? He sounds immature just commenting on them. You lost to a bad team, dont bring attention to yourself....lol
