I think it is clearly the other way around. The Royals are under his skin. It's probably not a coincidence that most of our problems are related to the A's.

Yea maybe it happens. Maybe it's not an obvious pitch but it happens. Many might see it as unintentional but only the players know the truth.

God damn you're ****ing dumb. I said it increases the chances of a team deciding to make the other team wear one. Probably up to the individual pitcher on retaliation.

Oh, I think it's pretty clearly both judging by the posts in this thread.

Nah, I'm just enjoying the rationalization it takes to excuse the Royals in this instance for their beanball.

I may be incorrect, but I don't think anyone in this thread was on the field today. Anyone?

Pointing out someone is being a big baby on the field is not "getting under anyone's skin."

Clearly both and it's fine that way.

Other than the Trout incident, that was just a heat of the moment **** you type deal, the others have all been involved with 2014 A's.

Samardzija
Oakland A's series
Donaldson

But you would think it would be a fight every series how some people think we are.

I was making a reference to Royals fans, not the Royals themselves. This should have been obvious considering it was a response to a Royals fan.

There is no excuse. Actions by both sides in this game. I see nothing wrong with how it went and even said on the game thread a Royal would wear one and then Esky got plunked. The bench clear was related to Donaldson charging in from third as esky walked up the baseline.

As close as this team seems, I think it just their mentality when one gets hurt, maybe subconsciously.

I was going to look for a good example, and I found one with the mighty Cardinals no less.

http://redlegnation.com/2015/05/14/t...ack-alley-way/

Granted this is a Reds blog, but it's still a great example. Kluber hit Matt Holiday in the hand accidentally and knocked him out of the game on May 13th.

A couple innings later, Jason Kipnis gets one straight in the back from John Lackey.

And they actually hit Kipnis a second time later in that game. All over an accidental HBP that knocked a player out of a game. Granted there's a bunch of Reds whining on that blog, but even some of the commenters say that's just baseball. You take someone out, one of your guys is going to wear one. You can certainly argue it shouldn't be that way, but that's how they play the game.

So get on that high horse Cards fan. Get on up there.

****ing Cardinals fans trolling because of behavior. **** off with that shit.

That has been the only I wasn't a fan of. Lawrie took the first HBP like a man. Donaldson knew he had been cold busted stealing signs and that was it.
