Here's Ozzie on Cubs' pitcher Rich Hill after Hill took verbal shots at AJ Pierzynski on Saturday before Hill was sent down to AAA Iowa.

"Who is Hill? That piece of [bleep] who pitched? Michael [Barrett] realized he was wrong [in punching Pierzynski]. Michael realized he overreacted.

"But that little [bleep] Hill, he should be in Triple-A. He is going to make Dusty Baker get fired. Shut up, you just got here in the big leagues. When you make a comment like that, it was a cheap shot. You don't know the game.''
