There was nothing wrong with knocking down Posey. It sent a message that intentional or not, you're not going to let anyone fool around with Votto. If it fires up the Giants, so be it. They'll think twice before they throw inside to joey again.
Let Chapman throw at a few guys, that will send a message?
No that it really matters, but that plate umpire was terrible. His strike zone changed all night and what clown isues a warning in a 9-0 in the 9th inning lol
Marmol still blows --- Crapinals 2-1
The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
I miss Raisor
I wasn't paying that close attention, but I think the pitch was down and made Buster skip rope. It might have been behind him, but I never felt like he was in danger of getting hurt. Just seemd like old time baseball to me, and Posey reacted to it like Frank Robinson used to when getting brushed back, by hitting it far and hard.
I sort of liked the whole affair.
Except for the warning which, under the circumstancesz, lacked common sense.
