Oh I'm well aware of that, but everyone was commenting on how furious he was... guess my sarcasm detector needs re-tuning
Right on. I was simply adding that he wasn't going to look angry in that situation, since he was simply running interference. It was actually smart for him to intentionally tone it down in order to diffuse the situation. The 1B ump actually did a good job ignoring Hairston. A lot of those guys walk after the player to goad them a bit, and this guy didn't. Joe West would have tossed him.
