Lucroy hit his second bomb of the night, yes. We had second and third one up, one out. They threw behind Braun, then beaned him on the next pitch. The Arizona dugout went nuts and Gibson even high fived the pitcher after getting ejected. Lurcoy came up and on the first pitch hit a monster grand slam to CF.

Not watching the game........am I to understand Gibson had his guys hit two batters in a row.....to load the bases......in a one run game?

 

Is "old school baseball" THAT important that retaliation is more important than winning?

 

I don't like a lot of things Roenicke does, and I honestly wish we had a better manager, but I'm SO happy we don't get involved in the stupid retaliation games, and that Roenicke doesn't let himself get suckered into that kind of idiocy.

Threw behind Braun and then hit him with the second pitch. Only 1 hbp.

Nah, only hit Braun. Threw behind him the first time, then hit him right in the butt. Pitcher got ejected and got a fist bump from Gibson as he got into the dugout.

Did Braun do something, or is this "retaliation" for Lohse letting a few balls slip?

I think it was just avenging the injustice done by Lohse.

 

What a bunch of knobs. Thanks for the win!

Gibson's a tool. Baseball doesn't need guys like him anymore. He ought to be out playing beer league softball somewhere. Glad that a camera caught the fist bump. I hope he gets a 5 game vacation.

I'll have to watch the MLB videos or see if anyone has the Arizona feed online somewhere. I'd really like to see the Arizona dugout after the Lucroy HR. The thing is, putting Braun on first base there isn't necessarily the worst move, but going about it the way he did (and his reaction)....I can't wait to see his presser tonight if they lose.

 

I know Gibson pretty much hates Braun, and has for quite awhile now. Part of me wonders if he took some real enjoyment out of that. The catcher made the signal, so that call pretty clearly came from the dugout. Not once, but twice.

 

Alright, let's get some insurance now!!

Of course that won't make the sportscenter opener- it should as it was the ultimate Screw You a person could have. Let's replay the scenario:

1. Pitch 1 vs Braun goes way behind him.

2. Ump immediately walks out and was like what the hell was that?

3. Pitch 2 nails Braun to load bases

4. Pitcher gets tossed immediately.

5. Dbags dugout goes nuts high fiving the pitcher like he won the game. Including a fist bump from Gibson.

6. Pitch 1 vs Lucroy ... grand slam.

 

I can re-watch that over and over and over. Screw you Dbags

I literally lol'ed after reading your post. I'm still fired up over all of that - it was just too great for the Brewers. Glad Braun only got beaned on the fanny - if he had to get beaned anywhere.
