I was listening to some of the KC-Phillie game today. Mike Schmidt was in the booth with Georg Brett. Their stories were worth the price of admission. The were two great and tough ballplayers. They were telling stories about taking out second baseman with hard slides and the badge of honor of having that reputation. They questioned whether that mentality exists today. Brett told a story about Dickie Noles throwing behind his head in the World Series (I think). He wasn't pissed about being thrown at. He was pissed that he was unable to get on base to get the opportunity to break a leg of one of the middle IFs. That's playing the game the right way. Let the players police themselves.
