Nor condoning the HBP by Bush on Bautista which was obviously intentional. Had that not happened, and the Rangers not been butthurt by a batflip, which didn't have the potential to hurt anyone or anything except people feelings, the Jose would not have felt the need to retaliate.
Not defending the slide by Bautista either, because he could have chose not to do anything and be the bigger man, just that the Rangers got the ball rolling with the HBP in retaliation for hurt feelings.
