Yes and no. The Toronto pitcher didn't hit Posada, but he definitely was looking for a confrontation. There was no reason for him to be near home plate on the FIRST base side. If he was trying to stop a run from scoring, then he would have been on the third base side. I think he was looking for Posada.

I agree that Posada should have kept his cool. The last thing they need is an injury or suspension that could screw up their chance at the playoffs! The Toronto pitcher came out looking worse, though! grin

The good news is that Cervelli is back! I really like him as a backup catcher.
