Taze the dumbass.Before 17-year-old Steve Consalvi ran onto the field at Citizen's Bank Park on Monday, where he was Tasered by a police officer, the teenager reportedly called his father for permission to do so.
"He said, 'Dad, can I run on the field? I said, 'I don't think you should, son,'" Wayne Consalvi told the Philadelphia Daily News of the conversation he had with his son.
"This would be a once in a lifetime experience!" Steve Consalvi replied to his father, according to the newspaper.
Wayne Consalvi told the newspaper that his son was not drinking and he wasn't on drugs. Steve Consalvi is "a real good student, heading to Penn State," his father told the Philadelphia Daily News.
The father also told the newspaper that his son didn't run onto the field as a result of a dare or bet, either.
"I don't recommend running on the field, but I don't think they should have Tased him at all," he told the newspaper.
The Phillies and Philadelphia police are investigating whether a police officer's use of a Taser to apprehend Steve Consalvi was an appropriate use of force.
Lt. Frank Vanore, a police spokesman, says Commissioner Charles Ramsey reviewed the tape and felt the officer had acted within the department's guidelines, which allow officers to use Tasers to arrest fleeing suspects. Vanore says internal affairs is still investigating.
Ramsey told KYW Radio in Philadelphia that he supported the officer's decision to use a Taser.
"It was inappropriate for him to be out there on the field," Ramsey said. "Unless I read something to the contrary, that officer acted appropriately. I support him 100 percent."
Consalvi, wearing a baseball cap, red T-shirt and khaki shorts, hopped a fence and scurried around the outfield, eluding two security officers in the bottom of the eighth inning against the St. Louis Cardinals. One officer used a Taser and the fan went down in a heap. Several Phillies placed gloves over their faces and appeared to be stifling laughter at the wild scene.
Phillies spokeswomen Bonnie Clark said the police department is investigating the matter and discussing with the team whether using the stun gun was appropriate.
The team said it's the first time a Taser has been used by police to apprehend a spectator who ran onto the field.

Jesus he's a crybaby.Dallas Braden Still Talking About A-Rod
Posted May 5th 2010 11:46PM by Tom Fornelli
Filed under: Athletics, Yankees
If you thought the little feud between Oakland Athletics pitcher Dallas Braden and New York Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez was over, you're wrong.
Braden took umbrage with Rodriguez crossing over the pitcher's mound during a game on April 22. The two exchanged words on the field, and after the game Braden kept going at A-Rod, saying that he should "take a note from his captain over there."
Well, upon hearing of Braden's comments on the situation, Rodriguez said he wasn't aware of any unwritten rules about crossing the pitcher's mound, and that he was surprised somebody with so few career victories under his belt would challenge him. So naturally when CSNBayArea's Mychael Urban asked Braden about the situation again on Wednesday, Braden and his low win total kept on talking.
Even intimating that the only way to settle this feud would not be with a pitch up and in, but with a fist directly to his face.

Braden was asked by CSN if he felt that he and Rodriguez might have to exchange blows for this to come to an end, and well, he basically said yes.
"There are things that are going to have to happen," Braden told Urban. "Out of respect to my teammates, out of respect to the game. I think he's probably garnered a new respect for the unwritten rules and the people who hold them close to their game. But I think you're right, we don't do much talking in the 209 (a reference to Stockton, Calif., where Braden went to high school)."
Which is obviously a lie because Dallas Braden has been doing a lot of talking in the 209 lately. In fact, he kept talking and had even more to say about Rodriguez.
In response to Rodriguez's comments about his career resume, Braden said he didn't realize he needed qualifications to comment.
"There's two ways that I can comment on that, and I'll give you both of them," Braden offered. "One, I was always told if you give a fool enough rope, he'll hang himself, and with those comments, he had all the rope he needed. Two, I didn't know there was a criteria in order to compete against A-Rod. I didn't know that."
The pitcher didn't stop there, either, discussing Rodriguez's real motivation.
"He's an individualistic player. He plays for the name on the back of the jersey, not the front. I don't know if he's noticed, but he doesn't have a name on the back over there so he should play for the name on the front over."
Needless to say, things could get pretty interesting the next time Braden and the Athletics face the Yankees. Circle your calendars: New York returns to Oakland on July 5 for a three-game series.
Here's a song for Braden:
