I love you grandma. Just stay off the pitcher's mound, OK?

A's pitcher's Granny says Stick It, A-Rod!
Written by playerpress.com, Monday May 10 2010
After pitching a perfect game on Mothers day, Oakland Athletics pitcher Dallas Braden's grandmother told the Yankees third baseman to "stick it."
Before Sunday's perfect game, Braden had made more of a name for himself this season for his enraged reaction to Rodriguez walking across the mound back on April 22, accusing the three-time AL MVP of breaking an unwritten rule of baseball etiquette.
A day later, A-Rod still thought it was pretty funny and did not see the big deal.
"I was tired," he said. "It's really not that big of a deal. I've done that maybe a few dozen times. It's the shortest route. As I said yesterday, I thought it was pretty funny."
Braden did not think it was funny as he yelled at A-Rod after the inning was over and continued complaining after the game, saying how disappointed he was in the Yankees slugger.
They were going back and forth in recent days and the rift was still making news leading up to Sunday's start.
Following her grandson's perfect game on Mother's Day, a chuckling Peggy Lindsey joined the Braden-A-Rod feud.
"Stick it, A-Rod," said Lindsey, who was in the stands in Oakland on Sunday afternoon to see her grandsons perfect game.
After the Yankees lost 9-3 loss to the Red Sox on Sunday night, A-Rod was asked to comment on Braden's grandma's comments.
"Uncle," A-Rod said.
