Manny Ramirez said he’s been on a bullet train before. One time he rode it in Japan.

 

It’s lost its flavor.

 

While waiting for the bullet train in Taiwan during the Dodgers’ March trip to the island, Ramirez wanted to talk about something else.

 

“I don’t know, but we went and got some snake blood last night,” he said.

 

He explained that he had a picture of it.

 

Dodger second baseman Ronnie Belliard tried to pull him back on the subject.

 

“They’re talking about the train and you’re talking about snake blood? What’s wrong with you?”Belliard asked in a humorous exchange.
