Lots of hoopla with Ubaldo drilling Tulo. Where was the hoopla when Yanks got drilled

Buster Olney ‏ @Buster_ESPN Ubaldo Jimenez played it smart with the incident aftermath with his Sgt. Schultz imitation: "I Know Nothing..." No fuel for MLB inquiry. Yes, reportedly Selig at the game. But it'll be interesting to see if he overrules his umpires, who apparently saw no intent; no ejection. Rocks manager Jim Tracy on Ubaldo: "That was the most gutless act I've seen in 35 years of professional baseball." Jon Heyman ‏ @JonHeymanCBS MLB should be able to rule on ubaldo beanball w/o video. Remember, most crimes aren't taped. Witness accounts count Umps at the game didn't read intent from Jimenez, apparently, because they didn't eject him. So can MLB discipline without video? We'll see. Always proud to be a Yankee fan.

Pedro taught Beckett well. 2 of the biggest slimeballs on the mound in the game. Maybe its just me, but I've also noticed an increase from the O's pitchers since Buck took over.

Yeah, I'm ready to see one of our guys take a big hard swing and accidently let the bat fly right at the pitcher! Or right at Buck or Bobby who are both too old and slow to duck.

Boston and Baltimore pitchers hit the Yankees all the time and nothing's ever done about it. This was never more obvious last season in early June when Red Sox pitchers hit Teixera, Martin, Cano, Jeter, and Rodriquez during a three game series and when Sabathia hits Ortiz during the last game both benches are warned. I love Girardi but he needs to have his pitchers protect his hitters. It's not only about retaliation but keeping opposing pitchers honest in their dealings with Yankee hitters. The Lord will either calm your storm . . . or allow it to rage while He calms you. ~ unknown
