For many years now, civility has been absent from our society and even in America's National Pastime. Pitchers pump their fists and yell out after striking out an opposing hitter. The hitters, in turn, stop and watch the ascent of their home runs into the stands. For years now, the hitter would charge the mound after being hit by a pitch. Yet, the baseball commissioners and their underlings do very little to address this classless behavior.
Baseball needs to take a page from its more violent counterpart sport of football. At the least the NFL has rules against and penalties for taunting.
By the way, Major League Baseball, think about the example you're setting for our youth.
