But when facing his old team the evidence suggests he's a Man-imal! <br /><br />Rod Barajas is not a well-liked fellow when in the city of brotherly love. Despite spending just one year in Philadelphia, Barajas managed to earn the hatred of the Philly faithful. Since departing for Toronto in 2008, however, Barajas has continued to torment the Phillies.<br /><br />• Barajas has batted against the Phillies in five games since joining Toronto in 2008; all five games were Blue Jays wins.<br /><br />• He has hit 8-for-16 with four home runs and 10 RBIs in the five games.<br /><br />• His slugging pct is 1.375 in the five games and he has the game-winning RBI in three of the five games. <br /><br /><br />BAAAAA-RAGES!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-31235175515192908302009-06-18T18:47:42.213-04:002009-06-18T18:47:42.213-04:00@The Ack
