Give me a break. Even Braun, who's a bitch-supreme, said he didn't think it was intentional.
<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->MILWAUKEE- Milwaukee manager Ken Macha believes Major League Baseball disciplinarian Bob Watson should look at the video of Ryan Dempster hitting Ryan Braun's helmet in Saturday's game at Miller Park.
"The league frowns on people throwing at people's heads," Macha told reporters this morning. "I don't know if Bob Watson has looked at it or not. But I don't think that's a good idea, throwing at people's heads."
Braun was squaring away to bunt when Dempster's pitch nicked him in the helmet in fifth inning of Saturday's game. Ryan Theriot was subsequently hit in the eighth inning.
Braun declined to talk to reporters after the game, and told Brewers.com on Sunday he was upset but didn't think Dempster's pitch was intentional.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Yeah, Braun didn't think it was intentional, but he still stared Dempster down after he hit that home run. I really fucking hate that guy.
I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.

It definitely didn't hit him, not really even close. It hit his bat.
One thing from all this that is really funny is how bad Bob Brenly hates Ryan Braun, his comments were awesome.

In this video it shows one view from behind where it's VERY obvious it didn't hit him. The video gives Brenly's opinion of Braun's celebration.

wow. I fucking hated him BEFORE I found out he didn't even get hit by that pitch.
The Cubs should literally hit him in the ribs every time he comes to the plate.

I mean literally do it. No exaggeration. Do it EVERY time he comes up. He's a bitch.

I think a player might be upset if a pitch goes near his head, and to hit a monster HR the next AB is impressive. I would agree Macha is a bitch for making a stink.
I like you guys a lot.

Yeah, I agree with Sipes here. Fuck Macha and all, but that Dempster pitch was a beanball, plain and simple. Braun is lucky he was crouching.

It was also a 70-something MPH curve/slider that didn't break. If he's not squaring to bunt, he gets outta the way by ducking.

I'm not sure what Macha is trying to accomplish here. Braun even said he didn't think it was intentional (although his douchery after he hit the homer would suggest otherwise).

Braun was a douche on his HR the day before too, the way he acts is pathetic, sticking his tongue out, giving the coaches low 5's, loafing around the bases, pumping his arm, staring the pitcher down. In the old days he would get one in his earhole every time up to the plate until he quit being a douche.
Also Dempster was not throwing at him, if you think so, you didn't watch the game. It was a curveball that spun out of Demp's hand. It was not an intended bean ball and it didn't hit him anyway. However the Theriot beanball was definitely intentional, it was a fastball right into his ribs as retaliation. We are the ones that ended up with the hurt guy.
I won't argue that Braun is an impressive hitter or even that he should be upset about getting one at his head, it was a great piece of hitting, he is a great player and no one likes getting one high and tight. However he is also a complete douche and I definitely think we owe him one in the ribs next time we play.
There is a reason why Brenly was so pissed off about Braun's antics. He is a young cocky tool with no respect. He needs to get his ass beat. I hate it just as much when Cubs pull that shit, when Soriano walks to first on HRs or when Z fist pumps and yells after K's. I just wish baseball would let the players take care of it the way they used to.
