Astros Players Respond to Yadier Molina's IG Post After Marisnick Collision

Jake Marisnick's collision with Jonathan Lucroy in yesterday's win over the Angels has ruffled some feathers all across the MLB. In case you missed it, here is video of the play at the plate in the bottom of the 8th inning:

If you take a closer look, Marisnick seems to shift his body to take an inside line just as Lucroy also goes to the inside which resulted in the big time collision. Making the decision on where to slide is in a split second and unfortunately, this play happened. Was it dirty? In my opinion, no. But, others around the look took notice including veteran catcher Yadier Molina of the St. Louis Cardinals.

Clearly, Yadi did not like a fellow catcher being taken out. Carlos Correa, Jose Altuve, Alex Bregman, Lance McCullers and Justin Verlander all responded to Molina's post.

These two teams square off in St. Louis in three weeks July 26-28. We'll have to wait and see if any tempers flare from this.
