"Mitch" In The News

From ESPN.com...

A judge has ordered former National League MVP Kevin Mitchell to stand trial on charges of punching a man several times in the head in July at a golf club in Southern California. The ex-San Francisco Giants and New York Mets slugger faces four years in prison if convicted of battery and assault...The 48-year-old Mitchell has pleaded not guilty and is free on $25,000 bail. Mitchell, who won a World Series ring with the Mets in 1986 and the MVP award three years later as a Giant, is charged with giving another golfer a concussion during an attack at the Bonita Golf Club course.

Those of you who read Dwight Gooden's book know what an angry Kevin Mitchell brings to the table. As a wise man once said, "Anyone who rolls up on 'Mitch' is in big trouble." Amen to that, brother. I don't know who the victim is, but he's lucky to be alive. Just ask the family pet that caught Kevin on the wrong day back in the 1980s.
