Newspaper A reports..."Logan Tom stopped short of guaranteeing a win over Cuba. "They put a foot in our MOUTH last time," she said.
Newspaper B reports...""They put a foot in our ASS last time," Tom said."

Either way I'd like to see more of the context of the quote.

I too vote B. It looks like it would be a non-english speaking reporter who was trying to translate: "they kicked our ass" and ended up with "they put their foot on ass..." or something like that. Some of our slang sayings don't translate too well...

I'd say both foot in our ass, and they kicked are ass are accurate.
