I don't think the Royals are a bunch of innocent choir boys. I've been openly critical of Yordano all season. Probably been one of his biggest critics.
I also don't think the Royals have to apologize for standing up for themselves. Every baseball team does it. The Cardinals do it frequently. And if they felt someone was stealing their signs, or if one of their players is HBP and knocked out of a game, most teams will do something about it. That is the heart of this issue. You can all write 10000 word diatribes if you want. The Blue Jays have been in their fair share of scrums the last two years too. You know why? Because everyone does it.
And now we have to sit and be lectured on the rules of baseball. As if every team doesn't stand up for themselves. Heck most of you are Cards fans. You're the same fanbase that will give a 5 minute standing O every time they roll Bob Gibson out there, and he was one of the most feared pitchers ever. Point being that most every good team stands up for themselves. That's not immaturity. You can certainly argue that's not how the game should be played. But it is. By everyone.

Of ****ing stow it.
High horse my ass, you people just don't feel like speaking to a very clear set of facts so you continue to deflect. Cardinals fans this, rules of baseball that. You weren't ****ing lectured on the rulebook - I gave an explanation as to why Donaldson is pissed and cited MLB rules as justification; what's the damn problem?
Nobody here is being holier than thou - I'm asking you to speak to very direct questions that have nothing to do with anybodies fandom you can't do it so you just jump on the 'derp Cardinals' dogpile.
Like I said, you fellas have acquitted yourself quite nicely in this particular pile of shit. Apart from Duncan, not a one of you are capable of rationally discussing baseball. Fine - enjoy your circle jerk. Donaldson shot first, or some other such make believe bullshit.
