I'm the biggest Pirates fan alive so I am sure I come at this a little biased. That said, Arizona was out of line as always.
The pitch to Goldschmidt ran up and in from a horrible pitcher, Ernesto Frieri. It was no way intentional........ the lead was 8 to 3 I think but if it were 8-8 the Diamondbacks would have reacted the same way so they need to quit using that excuse. The Douchebacks wait until the 9th inning of a blowout loss and put a 95 MPH fastball in McCutchens back. The pitch came after the count had run to 2-0 and the 2nd pitch was a slider away.
Hit someone and get it over with .... and maybe we accept it. From Goldschmidt's reaction... I dont think he wanted McCuthen hit.
