I was in a benches clearing brawl (video included)

[Eurotrash]

that takedown was Farnsworth-esque, darko. excellent.

shame you didn't put it in his earflap, guy sounds like a huge [censored].

russellmj-

I was suspended 5 games. Batter was suspended 6 games. 6 others got a combination of 3 and 2 games which completely doesn't add up. I will break it down.

--First I shouldn't have been ejected let alone suspended. He charged me, I didn't do anything but hit him with a pitch and that can't be proven on purpose and the only time you are ejected for hit batters is if there were warning given and none were. I hit him and he charged, all I did was defend myself, I didn't even leave my position. Yet I get one less game than this pyscho that puts a guy in a hospital and the charges me on the mound, wtf? Then the other 6 that were suspended were guys having boxing matches and bludgeoning each other, how do they get less games than me? None if this made any sense and the league really dropped the ball. Sucked b/c I was fined $500 for the ejection and then not paid my salary for the 5 games suspended.

Was he called out for running outside the base path?

That is actually a rule that most people don't understand. You can actually run anywhere you want b/c technically there isn't a base path until you are trying to avoid a tag. Since the ball wasn't even there yet, it was still rolling in the infield he wasn't "out of the basebath," but I don't think you can go out of the baseline or out of your way to crush another player--that seems wrong eh?

As for the rule, if you hit a ball down the left field line into the corner you can round first base, run and high five the right fielder if you wanted to before trying for second--not wise, but you wouldn't be "out of the base path."

KotOD- Released, sadly. That was a tough luck release too.

I get the whole payback thing and he definitely deserved it but why did you plunk him? What I mean is why wasn’t he beaned in the same game that he dropped your catcher, why did everyone wait a game? How was it decided that you would do it? If it’s understood that you had to do it because it was your start is anyone passing the hat in the locker room to pay your fine/salary? It doesn’t seem right that you get screwed over for a team decision.

Awesome.

If the story went down as you told it I think this might actually be a place where it is ok to throw your pitch a couple inches behind his head (something that I rarely ever advocate.)

2 points for the take down although I would have really appreciated a Chan Ho Parkesque flying scissor kick... maybe next time you can work that into your repertoire

[NT!]

darko,

i would have hit him in the head.

nice video. thread delivers.

Looked more like a spinebuster to me, 5 stars imo.

Darko's custom title should obviously be "Professor Farnsworth."
