Francoeur Angry About Getting On Base

After being hit by a Russ Ortiz pitch in the second inning of Wednesday's game, Francoeur had to be restrained by Bobby Cox and had a few choice words for the Washington Nationals pitcher as he walked to first base.

One can only surmise that the vitriol Francoeur spewed Ortiz's way was the direct result of his abhorrence of getting on base by any other means than a hit, as evidenced by there only being a difference of .018 points between his OBP and his BA, and not the actual pain incurred from getting hit by a pitch.
