Chase Utley figures he’s said what there is to say about his slide into Ruben Tejada that broke the Mets shortstop’s leg in Game 2, at least for now.
The victory was arguably the most important of Zack Greinke’s three seasons with the Dodgers.
The slide was late. The slide was high. The slide was questionably legal and arguably dirty.
Not that this will move the surprise meter any, but Chase Utley’s agent is not exactly thrilled with the two-game suspension his client just received Sunday for his take-out slide in Game 2.
A fastball to the ribs might be the time-honored method of retaliation.
