@Satsuma Our pitcher plonked a Red Sox batter really squarely (it's unclear if it was intentional or not but it was a very square hit) and EVERYONE came onto the field

@SportsGoblin this is wayy too early in the season to be getting that upset over being down 8

@Satsuma I'm honestly not even sure he did it on purpose, the ball might have just slipped

But if it was on purpose, yeah, I don't love that

@SportsGoblin one of the color commentators is Valle, who caught for Randy Johnson & apparently he got the league record for most hit by pitch walks one season (Randy being both good at pissing people off by pitching well and by accidentally hitting people with his pitches). Which implies intentional hbp at least used to be alarmingly common
