Lol Buehrle wasn't doing anything. Wow.

 

My guess is because he isn't on the roster, he can't be on the field.

That Bautista HR and subsequent bat flip was amazing

Easily the most bat flip with most swagger, ever.

They play 7 games against each other next May. I'm sure that will be addressed.

That game was crazy- great for baseball. One question that will need to be answered, but will never be heard....

 

What was Dale Scott thinking calling time out when Russell Martin messed up? Terrible umpiring.

I'm not disagreeing with you but it'll be pretty dumb if Texas does anything. If there's ever a time to celebrate and get crazy it's when you hit THAT homerun.

I wouldn't have a problem with a spontaneous, joyous reaction. I do have a huge problem with the looking at the pitcher--always have. It seems to be a new trend to look out at the pitcher to get your jollies on his reaction. I'll be honest, I'm more of an "act like you've been there before" person. I think that's cooler. But I guess people like to see more emotion and histrionics. I think there's a place in Baseball for a certain level of sportsmanship. In my opinion, Bautista crossed it with the staring out, even if it was for a half second...it was jerk move.

Jose is veteran. He's always been a hot dog albeit not on Gomez's level.

 

Yeah it was bush league but the guy just ended the game with that.

Well he hasn't been there before. To each their own but in my world if you hit a homerun like that, do whatever the f*** you want to do. If the pitcher has a problem with it then don't let up the homer.

It was the 7th inning.

Agreed. Everyone demands that players give 110%, but when they get a little fired up people get mad if they show too much emotion.

 

This was an interesting breakdown about how many altercations involve players of different etnnicites:

True but that definitely took steam out the Rangers sails.

Not only that but just about every pitcher goes nuts when they have a big strikeout to end an inning. Why is that ok but not a hitter celebrating a home run?
