Corey Patterson isn't dating Dusty's daugter

This might be the funniest thing I have read all year.

John Fay:

Dusty Baker finally had enough. When players on the Astros asked him about his daughter dating Corey Patterson, he felt the need to publicly address the issue. Baker has heard the rumor for weeks. There's no truth to it. Natosha is not dating to Patterson.

"She hasn't even been to Cincinnati," Baker said. "This is so far out of line. It's hurtful to my wife and daughter. How can people stoop that low? I don't know who started it. But I've been hearing from fans, players, announcers."

The fact that Astro players were talking about it leaves me in tears. One thing that isn't funny is that Dusty really now has no excuse for playing the guy who ranks 2nd to last in VORP as much as he has. Paul Bako is 18th to last by the way.
