Didn't see a post on this so far..

Betemit was running down the line, Pujols caught the ball a bit inside the line, Betemit ran into his glove, and Pujols' wrist snapped back. He went down wincing in pain.

Preliminary report is a sprained wrist, but they'll evaluate him further tomorrow.

Brian Tallet came in and intentionally hit Alex Gordon. He actually threw at Gordon twice, missing the first time..

As a 1B...that is one of the easiest ways to get seriously hurt (Cliff Floyd). Hopefully he's ok.

~~They could use those Orange/White double bases like in Slow-Pitch Softball~~

Hopefully they'll change the 100 year old rules of baseball to protect Pujols in the future. Maybe make the first base line some sort of tunnel.

Seriously though his arm was fully in the runners path on that play. There was no where for Betemit to run and still touch the bag. Batter has the right of way in that situation.

All class to throw at Gordon, too. That's just good, knowledgeable baseball, right there.

LaRussa is such a *******.

I almost don't think it was Tony's move. Tony isn't afraid to retaliate, but I don't see him ordering that. I watched a La Russa interview with Costas a few weeks ago that kind of made me think that wasn't his call there. But who knows, maybe it was.

That is both funny and sad...

You're just saying that because he's a big star! I think they should move him behind the plate so he can have some protective gear on...
