Reds manager Dusty Baker considered skipping his turn in the rotation, but decided Leake wouldn't let the arrest distract from his pitching preparations. A few fans had fun at his expense. This is just another example of how stupid athletes can be sometimes. You knew it was only a matter of time before someone came up with a shirt mocking Reds P Mike Leake’s recent arrest for shoplifting $60 worth of shirts from Macy’s. It’s simple yet effective, and sure to be out in full force in St. Louis this weekend as the Reds take on the Cardinals in a three game series.
Hopefully Leake has the ability to laugh at his own foibles and not be offended by the shirt. Poking fun at an opposing player for being arrested really is a victimless crime—like jaywalking, not wearing pants to the bank, or punching a clown in the dark.
