Machado needs a heater to the ribs.  Grow some balls.

I had just read the article linked from that article. http://deadspin.com/a-major-league-pitch...1585433770

I'm all for one in the ribs. There wasn't shit wrong with that tag and the way Machado was already throwing his helmet on his way to the ground suggests to me that there's some history here. He was looking for any excuse for that confrontation.

 

The ump laughing at him is the best thing ever.
