Florida Marlins shortstop Hanley Ramirez defended his play Tuesday and took shots at his manager and teammates, a day after he was pulled from a game for not hustling. Ramirez, a two-time All-Star and last year's NL batting champion, wasn't in manager Fredi Gonzalez's starting lineup against Arizona. On Monday night, he accidentally kicked a ball and then lightly jogged after it, allowing two runs to score. "It's his team. He can do whatever," Ramirez said, mixing in an expletive. "There's nothing I can do about it." "That's OK. He doesn't understand that. He never played in the big leagues," he said. Responded Gonzalez: "He's right, but I know how to play the game." http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=5197935
