April 10, 20214 yr There's no reason the K-State catcher should still be in the game. His going back towards Antico and standing over him started the whole thing.

April 10, 20214 yr I’m thrilled he’s out, but turf base pits suck. As does the softball esqe Longhorn in CF.
April 10, 20214 yr Is %age of ABs with an 0-2 count a stat that is kept? I swear Zubia is an All-American level player on that stat. Dude digs holes better than a ditch digger.

And you certainly don't get a pass just because you were "defending your dude." Turned out, there was nothing to defend. Antico kind of fucked up the slide thanks to the stupid send. Catcher got knocked back, came forward to show the ball, re-apply the tag, maybe scrap, but Antico just walked away, like Williams and Faltine should have done.

Yeah William's and Faltine fucked up because they were the major instigators in the situation. The catcher had no need to get back at Antico to apply the tag though. His movement backs Antico and standing over Antico is what set William's off. Daly must have said something pretty bad or just wouldn't shut up after being told to by an umpire. If he was tossed just for the typical shit talking that occurs during those "fights" then that's bullshit.

From the back, the catcher looked like he had bad intentions, but from the front and the umpires' view, it wasn't very bad. So I don't really see them seeing that as a provocation or participation.
