Seriously, that pic someone posted is damning evidence. What is our recourse if the Tigers wind up winning this game? Do we protest? Would St.-Louis-Hater Selig even bat an eyelash about it? Doubt it for some reason. :evil:
IF he gets punished (I say if because he wasn't caught in the act and that substance can be explained away as anything) he would probably be fined and possible suspended from his next start.

This team's approach against lefties is just atrocious.
I've read that McRae is on the way out, and I would bet that's why.
I'm not going to be upset if he gets canned, but in all fairness I don't think he's advocating the approaches that Encarnacion, Wilson, and Belliard have had against lefties (and, in general) this postseason and regular season.

If he didn't booted from this game I seriously doubt anything will happen to him.

I think some of you guys are blowing the "pine tar" thing way out of proportion. The guy wiped whatever it was off early in the game, and he's still kept the Cards from scoring. Give credit where credit is due.

I never liked Rogers per se... now in one short night, my hatred for him runs as deep as it does for just about anyone you could name in baseball...
