agree that pedro defended himself, but "Passive way"? not really. The way he took Zimmer by the side of his head, and threw him down. Maybe a shove, or just getting out of the way... guess that would be too Guillermo Mota.
Either way, who was Pedro trying to provoke? Zimmer? No, the Yanks bench, and specifically Posado it seemed. Where does Zimmer fall into that equation?
idiotic stuff....
