Re: Tigers/Red Sox scuffle
I'll spin it this way. Youkillis doesn't charge, the red sox retaliate by hitting inge on the hand. Inge is hurt, Miggy is hurt, buh bye tigers season.

Re: Tigers/Red Sox scuffle
I'm not a fan of either team but my take is that Porcello is a little punk. He tried to throw at Martinez and missed. It should have ended right there. Instead, he intentional throws at Youkillis. What the hell did he expect Youkillis to do?
Porcello should have stopped once he missed hitting Martinez when he clearly threw at him. I didn't see Cabera get hit in the first game, but was it intentional?

I know what you're thinking. We're in the middle of a city, what's a hawk doing there?

I suggest you watch it again. Getting bested by a pitcher in a brawl is about the worst thing you can do as a hitter.

He purposely threw at Youk. It's protocol dude.
I would think throwing equipment with intent to injure should be a bit more than 5 games... I've played in leagues where your banned from the league for actions like that.
Richie Sexson got the same deal for doing the samething. Of course Sexson wasn't actually hit.

Listen nobody is spinning anything. Youk got hit on purpose, Cabrera got hit on accident by Tazawa. There is a big difference.

I've seen it plenty. I do know Porcello was backing up hoping for anybody to help himself out. He used Youk's momentum against himself.

What did Bruce Lee say about using an opponent's motion against them? You stay calm & you can use their aggression against them.
