How does Hunter not get tossed?

[24fps]

Norris: "So lemme get this straight, you think I'm throwing at you because I'd rather pitch to Miguel 'Freakin' Cabrera?"

Hunter: "Looks that way to me!"

Norris: "Pass the doobie bro..."

I love Norris

That's some brilliant revisionist history by Hunter. By omission, mind you, but still.

"Picking on the old guy..."

How pathetic.

I missed the game and didn't see what happened. But frankly it doesn't surprise me. The tigers remind me of the blue jays and red

sox as far as being a whiny, punky bunch of brats.

Torii Hunter can be such a girl.

There, Hunter was talking specifically about when Norris was going into the dugout. At that point, I don't believer Hunter said anything, but Norris turned and said some things to Hunter. It was the exact reverse of what happened immediately after the HBP.

Hunter was looking in our dug out almost the whole time he was on 1B, he was baiting Bud into saying more. Hunter should have just charged the mound and see if he's really as tough as he thinks he is.

I saw that too. Guilmet shd have thrown over a few times so that Crush could land some nice solid tags in his gut.

Blame the brass in the commissioner's office. Make a few rules and these situations won't happen:

1. Batter is ejected if they take a step toward the pitcher or if they talk to the pitcher.

2. Anyone who leaves the bench/bullpen is immediately ejected and subject to suspension.

I agree, particularly with the bolded. There is no need to have 50 guys milling around when tempers are high.

If nothing else it will help the umpires control things by keeping down the sheer numbers.

Causing the benches to clear... Telling the pitcher he will whoop his A$$ over and over. That is craziness!!!

Couldn't agree more, that's absurd.

As Buck said in the post game ...."have you ever been drilled with a 95 mph fastball?

The big problem here is not that Hunter did not get ejected!

It was that the umpire way overreacted! Let's put the blame where it belonged. The problem escalated because the delay in the game caused by the immediate toss.

I hope the umpire gets suspended. Between tossing Norris and tapping Hunter in the face, he was completely out of control.
