Will Phillips tap Molina's shin guard in Wednesday's game?

Assuming that Phillips and Molina are both playing today, do you think Phillips will tap Molina on the shin guard again this afternoon? How do you think it'll play out?

Not sure about the troll comment...what's with that?

Anyway, that aside, I honestly don't know what happens. Maybe Phillips will just tap the umpire and get on with it. There could be some drama in the first inning again though.

Re: Will Phillips tap Molina's shin guard in Wednesday's game?

I've never heard of this "tapping of the shin guard" stuff by Brandon. Haven't seen him do it, but I'm not looking. Can someone explain this? Why does he do it? Does he give a "Hidily Hi" when doing it? If not, wouldn't most catchers get pissed whether BP said he hated their team or not?

I still say, if you open your hole, back it up or shut it up. Cards kicked our butts wholeheartedly and we look the babies in my mind. Someone change it quick.

A lot of players across baseball do it as a way of greeting the umpire and catcher.

I hope he does, but this time Carlos Fisher needs to be the guy throwing the kicks. This will be a good way to get Aroldis Chapman up here.

I think he will do it...he always does...as does Pujols.

The Cardinals have such thin skin
