“We want our guys, our athletes to be competitive and hate to lose, but with that passion there’s a fine edge, and when you cross that line there’s going to be consequences,” Bochy said. “And we just saw what happened there.

Bochy said he hasn’t had a chance to talk to Burke about what happened yet but he plans to have a conversation about it.
