Jayson Werth not a fan of Philly microphones

Some players handle it well. Jayson Werth is one of your more surly guys, so when a reporter got a little too close after last night’s game, he took offense.

“Can you get that thing out of my face?” he said, as a CSN Philly mike got a little to close for comfort. Werth then abruptly ended the question portion of the evening with, “Yeah. I’m good.”

The rumor on Twitter is that the mike holder was an intern.

Here’s the video:

QUOTE OF THE NIGHT

Jordan Zimmermann, on possibly not pitching in the All-Star game:

“I’d rather be healthy for the second half than pitch in that. I’d like to pitch in it, but I’m not going to go up there and pitch an inning and have to battle in the second half.”

HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT

Six Zimmermann strikeouts is kinda fun.
