Well of course the kid is going to get thrown out. The Frozen Ropes parents probably would have stormed the feild if he hadn't. It could have gone either way. Every one is just getting so bent out of shape about it because of the extent of the injuries to the other kid. The kid got hurt really bad, so it couldn't possibly be an accident, right? It doesn't work that way. Accidents produce serious injuries just as often.
And in response to Heavy D's comment that that's bar-none the dirtiest play you've ever seen on an athletic feild: you must be watching some clean athletic play, because that wasn't near as bad as incidents I have seen before. Kids get stepped on and cleated all the time. Just part of baseball. Yes, the injury was bad and yes I feel horrible for the kid who got hurt, but baseball players and thier parents know what they are getting into when they sign up.
