Who Shot Alex Ochoa? (AKA Threw Sunflower Seeds In His Face)
This video is going viral right now. It’s from a game in Chicago apparently in April. The guy taking the faceful of sunflower seeds is Sox 1st Base Coach Alex Ochoa. The phony tough guy in the catcher’s gear adding insult to injury with the “Bring in on” gesture is Kelly Shoppach. But the question remains, who was the triggerman who threw the seeds in his face? I’ve broken down this thing like it was the Zapruder Film, blew it up, examined every frame and I still can’t be sure. But I’m going with the consensus opinion that the Lone Gunman is Jon Lester. The only reason I’m not 100% positive is that it’s the only time all year he’s thrown something that didn’t get hit 400 feet.
And if it is Lester that means one of the few remaining guys on the roster who was even remotely likable is also a complete dick. The good news is the Sox just Tweeted that commemorative bricks are now 25% off!
PS – I can’t wait to see the text that Adrien Gonzalez sends about this incident
PPS – I think Johnny Pesky died of disgust.
@JerryThornton1
I remember when Ochoa was supposed to be our (Mets) star RF for a decade. Ugh.
Every post from you is fucking painful. At least you fool your fanboys with your Z formation, double gap, zoom position bullshit.
who cares about this team?
holy shit that was horrible. literally a 0/10 .. you and neil should just get married and run away
^^Take your sandy vagina elsewhere.
My comment was meant for whorefrost not 4 guys.
25% off for a brick? Shit, I kinda want one now. Touche, Lucchino, touche…
Maybe it’s Lester, but wouldn’t a lefty pour the seeds with his left hand into his right? That’s the way I’d do it at least. I pour things with my dominant hand.
there is NOBODY even remotely likable on this roster, even pedroia and lester can go fuck themselves at this point. ps – why is this video going viral?
The Jamaican fencing team could beat this embarrassing group of sock-fuckers.
Time to clean house over @ Fenway. If Gonzo faced off vs. Romney in November, Romney might win. That says it all.
Shoppach is 6’0. The assailant looks to be 4″ taller than Shoppach. Lester is 6’4. @Tonytwotoes Solid point, but if you were going to throw whatever you poured into your hand you would do it the other way around. The assailant threw the seeds with his left hand. Finally, the guy throwing the seeds has the same exact face as Jon Lester.
Conclusion: Jon Lester
Jerry this flat out sucked. I hope this doesnt carry over into Football season
do i get to throw the brick i buy at the dugout?
what am i looking for in this video?
I think its Lars Anderson. 6’4″, threw seeds left-handed(could be coincidence), was traded a few days later, in dugout during that game
Who gives a fack.. This team is as food as a poopy flavored lollipop
That 400 feet line is gold, Jerry, gold. I’m actively rooting against the Red Sox. Sad.
At first I thought it was Jon Lester, but after further review it couldn’t have been. He was way too accurate hitting him in the face.
It is Lester, a second before what the video showed he was having fun with Ochoa though.
lester is next to bard congratulating him when ochoa gets hit… jeff frye could be a suspect
If it was Lester, it would’ve missed outside.
or maybe these guys were just messing around with each other
Actually Josh Beckett held a pillow over Johnny Pesky’s face. True story.
Go back and watch the 30 for 30 4 Days in October. That team was filled with men that would fight for each other. They were grizzled and the entire city was behind them. This team is filled with fucking crybabies that nobody likes. I hate them so much and want them all to get aids while on the road trip.
Who fucking cares? Why is this being blogged?
Lester appears to be sitting next to Youlk drinking something with his left hand.

Shoppach is 6’0. The assailant looks to be 4″ taller than Shoppach. Lester is 6’4.
Other 6′ 4″ players with big noses on the bench Ryan Sweeney, Lars Anderson.

That is everyones favorite Red Sox John Lackey as the seed chucker.
Lester is sitting next to Youkilis on the bench.
Kelly Shoppach is a complete chode. Triple A catcher
