Seattle has a star?

I mean besides Felix?

That article pretty much is about how MS and Mike Trout don't think it's anything other than him being pitched inside, and how the Angels have hit more batters than have been hit.

Same thing they say in NHL when players knock out Sidney Crosby with a concussion.....who happens to be the best player in the game.

Same thing in the NHL when teams remember to Check a certain player harder.
