Duh, acting to prevent more damage would be the role of a peacemaker.
As for Zambrano, he apparently was smart enough to stay out of the sightline of the umps.
If I was a pitcher that just put a 90mph fastball an inch away from a mans chin on accident I'd be a bit more humble, might even say sorry. If I'd just retaliated I'd be cocky and tell Lee to get his ### to first and shut-up.
I think Young showed everyone what his intentions were.
I don't fault him for retaliating, but it should have been Soriano, not Lee, but then even the Padre faithful would have had a hard time denying the intent.
