@TonyLaneNV Why in the world does it bother you with somebody else does when the plane lands? As for me, I’m tall and I want to get up and stretch my legs.
@dos_lynx@4thOfJuly365 I think you’re right he probably was blocking the plate illegally. However, malicious contact which this clearly was is also illegal and it supersedes illegally blocking the plate. The penalty from malicious contact is an automatic out and an ejection.
@4thOfJuly365 All of these people whining about how baseball has gotten soft and this should be a legal play, yada yada yada. They obviously don’t give a damn about concussions or the health of players. They just want it to be the way that it “always was”. That’s so stupid.
@androidmorrow@4thOfJuly365 Way to bring politics into kids baseball game. It’s called malicious contact and it’s illegal. The rules are clear on it. And it’s supercedes whether the catcher was in an illegal or legal position. It’s an automatic out and an automatic ejection.
@RightWayGuy@4thOfJuly365 It’s called malicious contact. Look it up. It’s an automatic out and ejection, and it trumps whether or not the catcher is blocking the plate.
@RightWayGuy@4thOfJuly365 Yeah, God forbid that we prevent concussions! Let’s go back to playing football with leather helmets or no helmets while we’re at it.
@SleeperYankees It’s better for him to play every day then to sit on the bench in the Bronx. Sending them down was absolutely clearly positively no-brainer the right move.
@Rickeyhenley24@Captain2Corner I don’t think this is giving up on him. It’s giving him a chance to play every day because he wouldn’t be playing every day at the major league level.
