A lot of hitters hug the plate and don't get hit on such a consistent basis.

 

true and id have the same mentality regarding them as well the pitcher should always own his plate but I do agree with you, Youk gets hit ALL THE TIME and if i was him id retaliate too and infact if im Youk i wouldnt give in to a pitcher pitching inside and let them plunk me, it is a free base after all.

Youk is getting hit and pitched real close inside on a consistent basis by opposing teams.

 

I don't blame him for getting pissed.

 

He is a human being after all.

 

If he's human, then I would hope that he would think that losing his bat for five days is a huge blow to his team during a pennant run.

The pitch hit him in the f***ing back!

 

Not exactly a brush-back.

 

Carry on.

 

I know im just saying that if Im a pitcher im bound to bean someone if they keep hugging my plate, especially if someone has just beaned my team mate, im just seeing the other sides mentality there but I do agree that Youk was completely justified there.

Of course he will.

 

Still,can you honestly say you don't lose your temper to the point complete and total rage?

 

Take that, and imagine getting hit by a 90+ fastball with clear intention.

 

Let's see your reaction.

Nope.

 

I'm walking to 1B. Youkilis is obviously different than me, but I'd think about the five game suspension I'd get for charging the mound.

I know, i am agreeing with you he gets far too much s*** from alot of pitchers, im just saying that part of it is him hugging the plate, how many of those were intentional?

Nope.

easy to say that while you are sitting at home watching the game

a pitcher throwing a 90MPH+ fastball at some one on purpose is the equivalent of him throwing a punch you can only take so much of that before you swing back.
