Lol who beans Hunter Pence. He never calls time or anything.

It was probably an accident. Still. Ouch.

I see why they called Wheeler "Little Lincecum"

Wheeler just hit Pence :ohdear:

Maybe it was "retaliation" for Sandoval tagging out den Dekker in the chin/face earlier (even though it didn't look at all intentional)? I don't know, maybe it was just an accident.

But if it was on purpose, I hope it was worth a run, Wheeler. :v:

Wheeler certainly didn't sell it being an accident very well. Oh well, got a run out of it.

Well first there was this

http://m.mlb.com/bal/video/topic/8879002/v33486795/oakbal-benches-clear-after-donaldson-tags-machado/?c_id=bal

Which was responded to by Donaldson being thrown at twice (hit the second time), first one was kinda up around his head.

And then today there was this

http://m.mlb.com/video/v33549401/oakbal-norris-exits-the-game-with-an-injury/?c_id=mlb

Which knocked Norris out of the game. Note Machado makes no sign of caring that he hit a guy in the head with his bat.

Ultimatlely leading to this in his next at bat

http://m.mlb.com/video/topic/6479266/v33552351/oakbal-tossed-bat-starts-altercation-in-baltimore

Which was actually the second pitch thrown at him by Abad. First one was around his knee.

EDIT: added clip of the Donaldson "response" at-bat.

Unless you mean "why did he try to throw the bat at 3B when Donaldson wasn't even in the game anymore?" in which case I have no answer.
