Oh, he knew why he was thrown at. My point is that the fault
ultimately lay with his own pitchers. The Phillies threw dangerously
up and in repeatedly, after all.

Actually, I would rather it was up and in to a pitcher - but the ones
who were guilty weren't going to come to the plate, and a very strong
message had to be sent, asap.

The pitch was 2 feet over his head, so it'd not like Kuroda buzzed him.

Too bad Victorino isn't still in a Dodger uniform. Furcal, Manny and a
couple of others, not Kemp and Loney, play the game with passion, like
Victorino does.
