Red Sox/Tigers Brawl

[Marino]

Kevin Youkilis charged the mound at Rick Porcello.

Discuss.

Porcello being ejected is ridiculous.

Youkilis should have sucked it up and gone down to first base. Porcello clearly didn't want any part of him.

Now the Tigers are going to lose this game since they had to bring in Lambert, thank you hothead Youkilis and the stupid umps.

I've always hated Youkilis, he just seems like a giant douche.


(I'd still take him on my team any day of the week)

[Beantown]

Youk is a ****in crazy man, but I love him on the Sox.

And Procello getting ejected isn't ridiculous. He had already tried to hit Martinez, failed, and the first batter of the next inning he hits Youk, after the benches had been warned? He's going to get ejected 9 times out of 10.

[Blaze125]

I don't think the benches were warned, unless I missed it. If they weren't then it by far is ridiculous. If they were warned wouldn't Leyland have been ejected too?

I also don't think Porcello tried to hit Martinez in the first.

[mgoblue678]

He wasn't throwing at Martinez in the first inning. Balls do get away from pro pitchers sometimes too. He didn't even hit him.

I agree he was probably throwing at Youkilis but that was only in response to Cabrera getting hit on the hand and knocked out the game. Youkilis should know that is how the game works instead of acting like a hothead.

And as Blaze said the benches were never warned.

Wonder how many people commenting have been watching the past few games where Youk has been hit square in the back multiple times.
