According to Lowe, Baker has been instructing his pitchers to throw at Lowe for the past five years.
“… This goes back to my last year with the Dodgers. He made up some [bogus] story. A lot of people got involved. People almost got fired over it. You can go ask him right now and he’ll say he has no idea what you’re talking about. But just watch the game. Mat Latos has nothing to do with anything that has gone on. How would he know? Why in the [world] would you throw a 96 mph fastball, first pitch, inside to a pitcher? Ask him.”

I agree with Lowe.....the first pitch Lowe faced he was backing out before the release, he new it was coming at him. I thought it was a retaliation for Valdez's slide the prior half inning.

He started off well definitely. He's fallen off though.Skyhook79;1199481 wrote:He has sucked this year? He is the Indians best starting pitcher. Nice fail.

Anyway, back to discussion. I am sure there is some truth to Lowe's QQing.

Wonder if Baker will get a suspension since he pretty much admitted to it?

Baker came off as a huge douche after that interview.

What did Baker say regarding admitting it? Did Lowe smoke a SF Giant when Dusty was there or something?

Baker said he told Latos to "buzz him." He didn't tell him to hit him specifically. Guess we'll have to wait to see what the league thinks.Laley23;1199604 wrote:What did Baker say regarding admitting it? Did Lowe smoke a SF Giant when Dusty was there or something?

If Baker gets suspended and simply refuses to throw a fit twice a year to fire up his team....I'm going to think he's very dumb.

For telling him to NOT hit him? No he won't get a suspension. He won't get anything.

Baker told him to "buzz him" which implies throw at him but don't hit him.wildcats20;1199635 wrote:For telling him to NOT hit him? No he won't get a suspension. He won't get anything.

Hey, not saying Baker's going to GET a suspension but it wouldn't surprise me if he did.

There is absolutely ZERO chance of Baker being suspended!! He didn't do anything wrong, at all.

But you realize "buzz him" in baseball terminology does not mean hit him, right?BR1986FB;1199702 wrote:Hey, not saying Baker's going to GET a suspension but it wouldn't surprise me if he did.
