I'd bet Dusty made the call to plunk him.

Awful.
There was no way that was intentional at that point in the game.
Rangers fan all the way too.

Abreu appealed, so he was able to play. When will the appeal be heard and when will the suspensions take place if it is upheld?

Plus #1.

Was not intentional but it should have been. Garcia acted like a punk, we will give him a break seeing how he got to watch Altuve round the bases for the win without acting like a [censored].

I was at the game. 100% intentional. Been playing and watching baseball for 35 years.

You could see Maldy watching Garcia at the end of the homer. The pitch was the first pitch of the AB, and it was straight in his back. Garcia bowed up to Maldy and Maldy started bowing right back up to him to let him know it was on purpose. There is 0% chance it wasn't intentional.

So if a pitch straight at Garcia was 100% intentional, what do you think about one from Chapman that was behind McCormick? Did that one deserve an ejection?

Anyone who thinks that was not 1000% on purpose is tripping. Of course it was.

As far as the two game suspension I say good!

Remember when Joe Kelly got 3 games for NOT hitting Correrra and throwing at a few other trash-tros but not hitting any of them?

Still the best exchange ever... Kelly throws at Bregman, misses him. Walks him. Throws at Bergman's ribs a few times while he is over on first... you know. Keeping him on his toes. Maybe trying to hit him in the ribs? Who knows. Sure had him thinking he was going to get hit.

Someone from the Trash-stros bench yells at Kelly as he walks around the mound (this is pre pitch clock and no fans in the building), "Get on the mound and pitch you little fu***er"

Kelly throws at Corerra and spills him. Comes back and strikes him out because he (Corerra) is pretty sure he is going to hit in the head so he is not really into the AB at that point... if I thought 101mph fastball might very well be coming at my head or ribs, TBH I would be out of that AB as well.

Strike three-

Kelly- That sh** is easy. That sh** is fu**ing easy."

Corerra- Oh yeah!? Next time throw your fastball bi***"

Kelly- "What? Oh yeah. I'll throw my fastball right down the middle so you can you hit it. Bi*** shut the f*** up and sit down"

Then the benches clear and Corerra explains to Kelly that if he had hit a homerun, he would have been running the bases? IDK. That guy is not normal. But still..

#Never Forget

But yeah if Kelly got 3 games for NOT hitting someone... This two games is fair, or at least somewhat consistent.
