Around Baseball

5-0 Boston top first, none out yet.

 

*beat me to it

 

Best reason to edit a post in the history of the written language.

And Lackey hands 2 runs back on 2 HRs.. 6-2 Red Sox.

[Angrioter]

Indians, not Jays, Acquire John McDonald

[digiblader]

No need for Johnny Mac with Kawasaki around and Reyes due back within 1-2 weeks.

Fackin' Red Sox

[G-Snarls]

Did you guys see Kawasaki doing pre-game infield practice by throwing balls back and forth with White Sox fans in the stands???

 

Awesome

 

Would love to find a video of that

League coughs up the save. How much longer can LA possibly let him give up late runs out there?

[TheHurl]

and how does their 2 through 5 hitters go 10 for 15 with a walk and they score only 3 runs?

Solo homer and the rest were all singles, but that still takes talent.

[Abomination]

Dodgers just screwed up 1st and 3rd with no one out, couldn't bring the run home to tie the game.

Doesn't really seem terribly out of the norm, not sure why Maddon reacted like that. I think the whole 'baseball policing itself' thing is a pretty dumb system, but thats the system.

quite the catch by Bourjos

Kennedy just hit Puig in the face...he's up and jogging though

[havok24]

Wow this game is insane.

[GD]

No clue what's happening but it sounds good, can't wait to see it in the morning lol.

[Abomination]

- Greinke hits Cody Ross.

- Kennedy hits Puig in the face.

- Greinke hits Miguel Montero.

- Kennedy hits Greinke, all hell breaks lose.

 

Mark McGwire and Kirk Gibson getting in each others' faces.

 

I wonder why both benches weren't warned after the first retaliation (especially if it's up at the head). What kind of pitch was it that hit Puig?

[Abomination]

Looks like League lost the closer's job.

[G-Snarls]

Wow what a mess last night. Glad the Dodgers beat the D-Bags.

 

Review up in ESPN with lots of video:

[G-Snarls]

Not pinch hitting for Greinke was pretty dumb. Everyone knew they'd plunk him.

 

Yep. Luckily he didn't get hurt.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

lol @ Hazel Mae on Sportsnet asking Rosenthal if Puig is on the level of Trout/Harper

[Abomination]

That second one to Puig didn't look intentional (imo), but that last one to Greinke definitely was. Right at the head too, he's incredibly lucky he just barely got the shoulder up to deflect it. That's the kind of idiocy that can end careers (and lives). I hope Kennedy gets a good long suspension for that.

Especially when he's just back from a broken collarbone

[Abomination]

The funny thing is the one guy who didn't seem overly upset was Greinke. He looked like he asked the catcher if it was intentional, was told no, and was ready to take his base.

[Boxcar]

Wow, Kennedy is a f***ing massive douchebag. Two HBP right upstairs, what an *******. Then he even ran away from the mess he started like a pussy.

EYjr DFA'd. Kinda like the Rockies' version of Boni, only probably a bit better.

[G-Snarls]

Why was his collarbone broken? Grienke's a douchebag too.

 

It was broken in the Carlos Quentin brawl. That's why he'd been on the DL so long:
