    Ok, what about a batter who reaches out over the plate because he thinks the pitch is going to be away, but instead it’s inside. We’re talking inches here. So far of all the ways for a player to get injured in the game, the pitcher is the only one who gets any kind of penalty, the batter gets awarded 1st base. Throwing at a hitter intentionally should be dealt with severely, that I can agree with, but unless it’s intentional you have to call it an accident and let it go. This is the most anti pitcher thread I’ve ever seen

    Really? What about a line drive that’s hits a pitcher, shouldn’t the batter be punished because there’s an injury involved, or when a batters follow through hits the catcher? It’s all part of the game, players will get injured

    Supposedly these guys are athletes. Running around the bases an extra time shouldn’t be an issue

    I guess my biggest issue with the inspections is the public spectacle they have made of this. I’m already tired of sports writers telling pitchers to grow up. They’re being treated like criminals. Do all pitchers cheat? I doubt it. They need to find a better way in a hurry or their plan to make the game “better” is going to backfire in a big way. As far as I’m concerned it already has.

    Scherzer can’t be that good. He must be cheating. And the umpire actually rubbing his forehead to see if he has a foreign substance. That’s inappropriate and shouldn’t be allowed, good thing they didn’t suspect he had a foreign substance on his junk

    I agree, and my guess is it won’t. I don’t think MLB will be happy though until they find a way to force pitchers to throw hittable pitches, I’m surprised they haven’t banned the shift yet.

    For years they’ve been trying to “improve” the game by trying to get more offense. I’m sorry but pitchers need to be allowed to pitch inside, and yes batters will get hit. Why not eject a hitter for his long follow through that hits the catcher, usually in the head? You want a fool proof solution to all this. Get rid of pitchers and just play tee ball. I disagree with these constant inspections, there has to be a better way.

    MLB seems to come down harder on pitchers, who have not proven themselves as being the only cheaters in the game. How long did they allow steroids before they overreacted and now the banned substances list is a ridiculously hypocritical reaction to a problem they allowed for years. And what about the Astros? Their response to that situation was weak. P

    Sergio Romo got it right last night.
  10. LVTwinsfan
    Pretty soon they’re going to be throwing at umpires
  11. LVTwinsfan
    How much more grief do pitchers need to be subjected to. Batters get hit, it’s part of the game, but automatic ejections is going to far. Constantly checking pitches for foreign substances goes too far also. Let them play, if they violate the rules take the appropriate action, but stop with all the inspections.

    Ok but what has that to do with Buxton getting hit by a Reds pitcher several years ago
  21. LVTwinsfan
    Who knew
  22. LVTwinsfan
    Or, it was Bailey Ober the fence
  23. LVTwinsfan
    That one was Ober the fence
  24. LVTwinsfan
    Yes, sit up straight
  25. LVTwinsfan
    So if a 7 inning game goes into extras is there a runner on 2nd to start the 8th?
