Got him in the upper body, not near the plate, right in the middle of him.  So when Winker hit home run he ran into dugout and high five with Iglesias who had been beaned.  Yes Reds were ticked off at Familia, so they really celebrated that win.  Oh, New York doesn't like it. The hell with New York.  They act like Winker is the bad guy.  It's Familia who is the bad guy.  If Reds play the Mets and not a close game, a Met has a bean ball coming his way, probably the catcher on that Familia bean ball.  Could happen Thursday or when Mets play at Cincy. 

So what you're saying is you're fine with Winker getting his head taken off by a disgruntled Mets pitcher? Please clarify.. That's what happens when teams decide to go tit for tat in the beaning department. I could care less about the NY media and fans myself, but I do worry that some of this hyped up trolling of fans can lead to bad blood between batter and pitcher. 
I like Jesse and like his style of play, but not everyone sees it the same way and pitchers have the ultimate weapon against a batter in the box, the bean ball. Players have been permanently injured that way. The last thing this team needs now is to have Jesse sent to the ER and see the possible end of his baseball career.
