Pujols, Soriano Plunked & Everyone Is Happy
Written by wrigleyville   
Sunday, 26 April 2009
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch offers a remarkably evenhanded account of Rich Harden hitting Albert Pujols in the upper butt after Alfonso Soriano got hit in the upper head, with interesting quotes all around:

Cubs manager Lou Piniella, asked if he thought Harden had handled the situation properly, said, "Well, I just think he was going to try to come inside and the ball got away from him. Twice." 

And:

Harden said after Soriano had been hit in the head, something "has to be done. You want to go in on him anyway, just challenge (Pujols). We were just going in there and if something happens, it happens." 

And:

"That's the difficult part of the game," Soriano said. "When somebody gets hit like that, we've got to respond. I feel sorry for Albert, but we've got to respond." 

And:

"I'm not OK with anybody getting hit," Tony La Russa said. "The only thing I've ever said, whether we hit somebody or they hit somebody, this is the big leagues ... you should never get hit in the head. The pitch doesn't get away. If anybody's got to improve his game, it's us. We're the guys who got the ball above the shoulders. I didn't see them doing anything wrong." 

These things go better when Ned Yost isn't involved, I suppose.
