Thanks to an LA Times article, I was alerted that there is a video on YouTube of a Giants fan burning his no. 29 Jason Schmidt Giants jersey, in obvious resentment of the fact that the former Giants' ace, signed a free agent deal in the off-season to pitch for the rival Dodgers. Before you check it out, be advised that there is a Snoop Dogg song playing in the background with several explicit lyrics. Oh yeah, and if you're not into fans burning jerseys with a blowtorch, don't go here either.
With fans like that, it's easy to see why the Dodgers scheduled their rotation so Schmidt would miss the Giants this time around -- the teams begin a three game series tonight, and Schmidt already pitched on Wednesday. Schmidt has already said he expects to get booed.
