A-Rod out 6-8 weeks after getting a broken wrist from the hit-ny-pitch last night -- nm

I'm curious as to why a pitcher was allowed to hit 3 batters in less than an innings work and not be tossed. -- nm

Because the pitcher had only given up one run and has the nickname of King. -- nm

I'd love to find a stat on something like this. I would think most pitchers would have been tossed after #2. -- nm

if a Yankee pitcher would have hit a Mariner after that, a warning would have been issued. nm -- nm

by all rights he should have been pulled by his manager for not making his pitches.

He should have been ejected. Especially after hitting Arod. -- nm

A 91mph changeup. Not exactly the usual changeup. -- nm

I think your reaction is biased as a Yankee and Arod hater. If three Sox were hit you'd be pissed and not making excuses.

and yes, I likely would be upset if it were 3 Sox getting hit.

If he's notorious for hitting guys they shouldn't have let him stay in long enough to hit a third.

they just do not warn you for hitting someone, unless the umpire thinks it is intentional. nm -- nm

A 91mph changeup. That's a fastball for a lot of guys. -- nm

Forget the pitch. He hit three guys! He had poor control. You eject him for not controlling his pitches and hitting THREE guys. -- nm

I'm not sure it's the umpire's job to stop a player from playing like crap. -- nm

No but it is his job to eject a pitcher that continually hits batters which is the result of his poor control. -- nm

loss of control is a quality of play issue, it's not against any rules that I know of.

I call bullshit on that. Hernandez is a Cy Young caliber pitcher...and he hits 3 out of 5 batters?

to be honest, Arod got hit with a changeup, and he did not react all that well in getting out of the way. nm -- nm

Three is too many. Things might get ugly tonight. I don't know if Nova is willing/able to hit batters on purpose.

yeah, but again, if Arod reacts correctly (spinning away from the pitch)

You're blaming the guy that got hit? Come on!?! A MLB pitcher shouldn't hit three guys and he definitely should get to continue

if a player is leaning over the plate and they get hit? yes, it is their fault.

Arod doesn't crowd the plate and he's always looking for the inside pitch. I don't think you can blame him at all.

I sympathize with him getting hurt, but the truth is, he reacted poorly to the pitch.

you have a ball coming at your head, you are taught to turn away from the pitch.

They usually warn both teams after one hbp but almost always after the second. He wasn't even tossed after the third! Intentional or not he should

not true. They warn when there is intent most of the time.
