@@rileyellsworth575 I'm sure it hurts at least a little. 83 mph is slow as far as pitches go, but that's still a high rate of speed to get hit with a solid object.
A-Rod followed that up with an RBI, a single, and bomb. I know people already know this, but that was probably Girardi’s best moment and A-Rod didn’t let it go to waste.
@@vanglez765 of course. But it would be his word against their word…. Would never work. You can’t make a rule based on pure intentions… that’s just silly. You think everyone would be honest?? Ya right!
Why do baseball managers get to berate people they work with? For most other jobs, you'd get canned in a second. Maybe that's why they are involved in a children's game. Never grew up and learned how to handle themselves when things don't go their way.
Where is the one of Bryce Harper getting hit vs the SF Giants. It was so obvious and dumb that the SFG catcher didn't try to stop Harper from charging the mound. Even Mad Bum stayed in the dugout
If it was the one with strickland pitching im glad he got rocked he threw at him over an incident that happened like 3 years ago and that little baby decided to throw at him and lose the fight
Why is it assumed that the pitcher deliberately hit the batter with the ball in all of these incidents? Isn't it possible that the pitcher just threw a bad pitch?
MLB is corrupt! PItchers, catchers, umpires, and announcers are in collusion, in a conspiracy to promote the game by encouraging, allowing and excusing assaults on pitchers with impunity. As soon as the deed is done, three things automatically happen, 1) the catcher jumps up to intercede should the victim march on the pitcher, 2) the umpire acts with indifference and inserted of throwing out the batter he throws the pitcher another baseball, adding a coda,a gesture of approval of the spectacle. 3) the announcers rejoice at the batters being hit, normalizing the bad behavior. 4) fans do not boo very little if at all, since the behavior has been normalized. The Commissioner of baseball is quiet, afraid to upset the state of affairs. This happens due to cowardice on behalf of the umpires and the Commissioner. MLB only cares about ticket sales, to hell with chronic injuries to baseball players. Umpires are cowards when an entire stadium is watching them. Cowardice, cowardly umpires. They issue warnings, AFTER a batter is hit. Every umpire should issue a blanket warning at the beginning of every game, and/or the Commissioner should speak out against intentional assaults on batters at risk of ejection and fines.
@@magicjohnson-o4l A baseball thrown at these speeds is literally a deadly weapon; what sucks is proving without a shadow of a doubt that the pitcher threw intending to cause bodily harm. I still remember the scene from 42 where Robinson's teammate instructed their pitcher to plunk a guy in the head after Jackie got stepped on, and that was before batting helmets. Pretty fucked up...
Every hit in football should be charged with assault. Tackle someone, instant jail time. Hard fouls in basketball, assault. Kick someone in soccer, it's assault. You should be charged with endangering the public for existing.
Will always love that Ryan Dempster plunked ARod, just like he said he was going to. LOL
That clip of Weaver plunking Seager is properly old-school and Bob Gibson would be proud
Yeah it must really hurt getting drilled at 83 mph lmao

Kyle or Corey
Such a different game now.
Seager must have been a major contributing factor in placing pictures and batters on the clock. Seager's delay tactics are annoying.

Change the rules to get one automatic point to the batter team instead of 1st base. You'll see all the hittings stop immediately.
That will never happen.
Because everyone will deny it’s intentional.
And some are actually on accident.
@@TTundragrizzlyyes, many times you can tell it's intentional.
That's a fantastic rule! Intentional or not.

Ya right!

Funny Harper went from getting intentionally hit by the Phillies to being the heart of their city.
Where’s Roger Dorn in all this?
Protecting that face! Lol

@@Diehardbucsfan it caused another Giants pitcher to get hurt. I believe he collided with another Giants player.
It’s because it was hunter strickland. He’s a club house cancer. His teammates hated him.

I hate when the umps gives warnings even if it is an accident that is just flat out wrong
Bad take. Umps can’t know what’s an “accident” and what’s not. Warnings are to help not escalate things further.

They should be charged with assault.
It is baseball so they can’t be charged with assault and they don’t want to cause harm they just want to scare the batter
What?
