Zack Greinke noted that many LA Dodgers poop and don't wash afterwards

Molly Knight’s new book about the Dodgers “The Best Team Money Can Buy,” (can debate that at a later date) includes an anecdote about Zack Greinke speaking up at a team meeting.

About their bathroom habits.

It has to do with a team meeting held as the Dodgers stumbled just prior to clinching the NL West in 2013. Don Mattingly called the meeting and told his charges to loosen up. Then, in an unprecedented move, because he never speaks out like this [Greinke has battled social anxiety disorder throughout his career], Zack Greinke stood up. “I’ve got something to say,” he said. The room was quiet.

“Some of you guys have been doing the number two and not washing your hands. It’s not good. I noticed it even happening earlier today. So if you guys could just be better about it, that would be great.”

Greinke sat down. The team wasn’t sure if he was serious. When they realized he was, they laughed. Then they took the field, far looser than they had been, and went out and beat the Dbacks. Two days later they clinched the division and jumped in the Dbacks pool.


That whole wash after pooping thing in bathrooms is for restaurant personnel only guys. So don't worry about it, Zackary.
