He hit .321/.383/.566 in September. It’s utterly rediculous to suggest that the Collapse was down to Delgado’s play.

Time for a reality check here. Wow… you really think there’s a single fan who’s going to boo his next out who’d have even reduced the volume on that boo if he’d taken the curtain call?

Pointless curtain calls are not what anyone gets paid for. He made his effort for the fans when he hit two homeruns and fielded his position pretty well.

If he took the curtain call, there'd no doubt be an uproar that he dared take a curtain call while hitting below the mendoza line after only two solo shots. At least this way he's stayed true to himself, rather than going against his own principles in addition to suffering an inevitable storm of criticism.

It was just not a good time in the game for a curtain call. If it was a go-ahead run or something important, then no harm, but it would have just been insulting to Atlanta to do it then, and why get your opponent riled up and give them another reason to try to come from behind to beat you? They needed the win yesterday more than they needed heat with the Braves. I noticed it too. It was just not a good time in the game for a curtain call.

Let everyone's conscience be his guide, but I would not stand for the national anthem either. It used to be only in Fascist countries where religion and patriotism were so conflated and people were required to demonstrate their patriotism at things as inocuous as sporting events!
