Why does a Cardinals fan care about Blue Jays players stealing signs and hanging heavily padded elbows over the plate?

I don't know how to add tags - but if someone could add "Willie Aikens' Shart" - I'd really appreciate that.

I missed the game yesterday (at my grandma's 80th) but caught up this morning over coffee and breakfast...
Anyone who thinks you're trying to hit a guy intentionally with a changeup is an idiot... Anyone who thinks you're intentionally hitting a guy on the 7th pitch of an at-bat in the late innings of a close game is an idiot... The pitch Madson threw that almost hit Donaldson WAS an inside fastball, made more inside by: 1) Donaldson being 5-8; 2) Donaldson crowding the plate; 3) Donaldson diving in to every pitch. If that had hit him, he would have been run, and I wouldn't have complained. It would have been in line. Donaldson's reaction - and the way he showed up the umpire - was out of line, though. And isn't going to win him any fans among that fraternity. |

But when they encounter someone bigger than them for a day, it pisses them off because they're just not used to that. |

If you'd ever thrown a changeup, you'd know why not. |
