You could argue he was trying to brush Donaldson off the plate in the 7th inning, but that's not illegal. Everybody does that. If you're sitting here arguing, like Donaldson and our friendly Cards fans, that he was trying to take his head off and load the bases for Bautista in a 2 run game... that would be dirty, and stupid. You're basically saying we were okay with throwing the game just to knock Donaldson's head off. If he really wanted to do that, he would've done it with the next pitch. Instead he struck Donaldson out.

But derp te derp derp, don't you see how many situations we've put ourselves in this year? I mean clearly it's our fault that Donaldson was acting like a bitch for being thrown inside on. derp de derp derp
