He says he was suffering because he "had a lot of diarrhea."
When you're pitching it towards home and you feel a little foam, Chan Ho Park knows your pain. (Getty Images)The full transcript of the exchange is worth reprinting in its entirety, as it is extremely hilarious.
PARK: I had a lot of diarrhea. That - That is what you want to know?
REPORTER: Your manager said you were sick.
PARK: Yeah, I had a lot of diarrhea. I had diarrhea and then.... what? What, it's funny?
REPORTER: No. He thinks its funny.
PARK: The off day - off day I had a lot of diarrhea.. and flu too...a little. A lot of cough. Chest hurts. I feel dehydrated, something like that.
Park is feeling much better, holding the Red Sox to just one run during his last outing, as the Yankees took it to their East Coast rival, winning 3-1.
