Pitchers just don't steamroll catchers

Last night not only did Ted Lilly pitch eight innings in a one-run win over their rival Cards, but he ran over and injured Yadier Molina.

I've been watching baseball for 20 years and this is the first time I've seen a pitcher run a catcher over. Kind of like if R.Kelly had destroyed Jay in a rap battle, or if a punter leveled a defensive lineman.

Either way, it's funny but I do feel bad for Molina as he'll never hear the end of this.
