Baseball fights

You’re not allowed to change what I said to make it seem like I attacked you personally and then whine about me attacking you personally.

I never said anything about <em>you</em> personally attacking me. You’ve twisted the conversation. Also, as I said before, violence is inexcusable in sports when it is not essential. Baseball will survive without physical violence. Period.</p>

You ever have anybody throw a 95 mph fastball up under your chin because you were crowding the plate? If that don’t make you fight you either have a death wish or the reflexes of a mongoose.

I’d ask to have a moment with him to tell him that what he’s doing is inappropriate and should not be repeated.</p>

@higherlead

And how would that violence not be tolerated? Would be send the police with truncheons to subdue the perpetrators and haul them off to jail?

Police brutality is inexcusable unless the police is deliberately and clearly threatened. I would use unharmful chemicals to subdue physically violent protestors. However, my point is that protestors should not be violent in the first place. Some system must be put into place to discourage it.</p>

…would kick a mud hole in the guys butt and then stomp it dry.

I don’t know what that means, but I’m guessing it has to do with Little League coaches regretting their actions for encouraging physical fights. </p>

Yes younger players play under somewhat modified rules

The fact that younger players can play baseball without resorting to physical fights suggests that physical fights are not “necessary” to baseball, as Thxzpi636 claimed.</p>
