This is what he said.
He did not specifically refer to violence nor did he say that those unwritten rules in society would be legal. But I'm not gonna fight his fight for him. I am done with that matter. Now, you did not answer my question I posed to you about Gomez.You think punk behavior is OK. Fine. Then do not play MLB or risk getting drilled. And understand that most people understand these unwritten rules. Unwritten rules that punish punk behavior. Too bad society does not have more of these.
- And on the point of HBP...what I was saying is this. In a perfect world there is no violence on the baseball field. But as it stands, a pitcher can exact vengeance on a hitter and simply say "oops".Did he misbehave, and if so, what should be done about it?
Not that this is over by any stretch, which is worse? McCann jawing at Gomez at the plate, or Gomez getting plunked next June? Neither is good, I know.
