Adam Dunn reprimanded for being awesome

Adam Dunn was out of the Nationals’ lineup Saturday, so he decided to pay an in-game visit to the Brewers’ radio booth, where legendary broadcaster Bob Uecker was back in action after returning from heart surgery.

Bill Ladson of MLB.com initially spun the visit as a positive thing, but then described manager Jim Riggleman as “unhappy” when he learned about it the next day and now he reports that general manager Mike Rizzo “scolded” Dunn today.

First of all, I’m so happy to know that Adam Dunn and Bob Uecker are friends.

Second, inning-long visits to Bob Uecker should not be considered punishable. They should be considered mandatory. Dude was in Mr. Belvedere.
