We enlisted UFC veteran Claude Patrick to break down Rougned’s fighting technique, and provide Bautista with options should he again wind up nose-to-nose with a foul Odor. Whether Bautista instigated things with his hard slide into second is open to question, but this much is clear: when Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor shoved him, the physical confrontation was on. But as Blue Jays star Jose Bautista learned last Sunday, sometimes a fight finds you. It didn’t end well for Bautista, but could he have done differently after such a blatant provocation? We don’t advocate fighting.
