What Gurriel did was dumb, absolutely. He was asked about it after the game, because by then he had exploded social media at the same time McNair was still exploding it. He then apologized, tried to explain what he meant, suggesting that he was making a joke with his teammates about how little success he's had against Japanese pitchers, and how perhaps Darvish — against whom he had homered, loudly, in the second inning — had pitched him as if he, Gurriel, were Japanese.
