[One Red Seat]

That's a recap of the current state of affairs. I asked for something different. Specifically, when do you start recognizing, you - not Joe Girardi, that your captain, similar to our firstbaseman, dives into the pitch, and a large majority of his HBP are directly related to this? When does this happen? Furthermore, I'd love to hear the justification for a retalitory action near the head.

EDIT: And the part about diving is important, because, in many cases the need for retaliation does not exist. But, whatever, keep thinking about this like Timmy "Tough Guy".
