Some bad baseball blood in the Olympics?

Looks like the Chinese and the Americans decided to play the old fashioned way and bring it back to the 1950's. Did anyone see Nate Schierholtz (Giants prospect) take out the Chinese catcher, Yang Yang, on a sacrifice fly (picture below)? It helped spark a bean ball parade which ended in 6 hitters from the two teams getting plunked. The worst of which was Matt LaPorta, (Indians Prospect) who received a pitch to the head and had to leave the game with a mild concussion. Here's wishing a speedy, Baseball Project recovery to Mr. LaPorta.
