Chipper, Smoltz resolve controversy
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Chipper Jones and John Smoltz cleared the air Sunday in a meeting with manager Bobby Cox and said afterward that their disagreement over post-game comments this weekend is behind them.
“Total misunderstanding,” said Smoltz.
Chipper agreed. He said he apologized to Smoltz for Jones’ reaction to what he thought was Smoltz singling him out for sitting with an injury Friday.
“Obviously there was a misunderstanding and I apologized to him for my comments in (Saturday’s) interviews,” Jones said. “He assured me that he wasn’t singling me out.”
What’s your take on the situation and Sunday’s developments?
