I want to thank whatever slapdick threw that banana towards my direction in CF in the last inning. Way to show ur class u jackass

Thoughts?

Frankly I am a little surprised to see this from a Giants crowd. having been out there they seem like the type of crowd that is beyond such crass things.

Only takes one racist to throw a banana.

My thought is that putting it out there just plays into the hands of the d-bag who did it. Obviously, he's not going to feel any shame.

Hopefully it gets all the camera footage reviewed and they can identify the culprit.

This stuff still goes on. Unbelievable. Wish AJ had a banjo and toothbrush he could throw back at the guy.

I think some partying Lincecum fans caught his HR ball, got confused when they tried to throw it back when he came out the next inning, and now have some guy looking for his munchies.

"Dude, I said ball, not banana!"

"Whaaa?... Baaalllaaana?"

"Dude!"

"Dude. Where's my banana, maaaaan? I'm hungry."

Right because the only racists are from Appalachia.

Way to rail against the use of stereotypes by using a stereotype.

For people that do that sort of thing is sad. Unfortunately there are fans of every

team that do that sort of thing.

Maybe the guy was trying to impress his boyfriend?

I love Adam Jones. He's such a beast on and off the field! Glad he didn't sweat the small stuff. He gave the Giants crowd the long stroke with that HR anyway AND a win. So... lulz!

In the 8th inning, I noticed that immediately after he caught a ball for an out, Nick Markakis looked toward the stands in right-field.

I wonder if that is when it happened?

I mentioned it in the game thread, but I had no idea that that may have been the reason. At the time, I just thought that it was funny that Nick was looking into the stands like he wanted to kick somebody's ass.

Even if they do ID the idiot whAt can be done? The Giants will or are embarrassed

by that act. Maybe some apologies will come to AJ.

I'm guessing he didn't ask the crowd for a banana because of a potassium deficiency.

Show it on the evening news. :mwahaha:

AJ handled the situation the best way. The O's won. Didnt AJ hit a home run? You

don't ever wAnt to lower your standards to an idiot like that.
