It's stupid to put the lead off hitter on like that with this close of a game.

But the played the audio of Neal Armstrong's famous quote. 

his practice speech

[Docwaukee]

It was an honest mistake by Noe that the ball got up a little too high on Marisnick.  It was a bang bang play.  He didn't have a lot of time to react.

Just like bowling through a guy's head is not cool?

 

Totally different. 

[UndertheHalo]

His head is still attached.  Seems like Noe made a perfect pitch to me.

Gonna need a ruling from vladdy on this.

It's rather ironic that he hit him in the shoulder....which is attached to the head.  

[beatlesrule]

Okay so he got plunked. Was there a fight? Punches thrown? Any ejections? Anyone's nose get broken? Any blood? Did Jake rush the mound? I admit I was wrong about them not throwing at him but I stand by my position and was right about nothing else happening after that. If Pujols didn't react the way he did for whatever reason, that little incident afterwards wouldn't even have happened.

Another thing, if it was super super serious and there were super bad blood, the Angels would have plunked him right away and that did not happen.

Watching a game live and watching on TV are 2 different things.  I don’t know what happened on replay or what Victor and Gubie said.  All I know is the team got fired up

Yeah, July 16th was when they had the studio ready to film the footage, gosh get your facts straight.

I'm not sure I see the difference. Payback was due.

Bullshit

Still think that was stupid as F*ck to throw at him. They’ve been clawing back all game and have had all the momentum since the 2nd. Why give them anything. Garbage.

Scioscia is watching somewhere or will see this back and forth.  I'd love to hear him comment.

Wow, each sport has it's own way of policing.  Throwing at someone is part of baseball that goes back decades upon decades.  Get over it.  It was due and very much warranted.  No damage done. This should be the end of it.
