You are correct, this is big boy ball, and perhaps that's the way MLB wants situations to be handled. But I really suggest you look at the videos and see where the altercations occurred. Rodriguez was barely out of the box, the pitcher advanced almost all the way to the plate. See that big crowd of people right in front of the plate? Now admittedly, Rodriguez gets restrained by his coach at first on the second incident, but again, see that big crowd of people at first? It was the pitcher he advanced and created the problems.
