Right defender Christian Yelich took the initiative to express the clubhouse feeling.

"It's a player who has a history of this kind of case.Once it's an accident, but again and again and again – you're just a dirty player," Yelich said in a screed breathtaking 60 seconds that was preceded by more colorful descriptions of Machado's play.

"It's a dirty game from a dirty player, that's really the case, I have a lot of respect for him as a player, but you can not respect someone who plays it. game like that. "

Aguilar, 28, and Yelich have known Machado for at least a decade. Yelich and Machado played together and on the junior elite baseball circuit and were part of the 2010 preliminary round. Machado was selected third overall by the Baltimore Orioles and the Miami Marlins seized Yelich 20 selections later.

Yelich admits that he is taken aback by Machado's conduct in this series, which included interference at second base when he reached for the goal and grabbed Orlando Arcia, escorted Brewers, as well as a lack. general of haste that pushed him to admit that he did not like running. bullets in an interview with Fox Sports.

Machado was suspended for five games in 2014 when he pitched a stick towards Josh Donaldson, Oakland Athletics' third baseman, two days after their involvement in an incident as a result of the incident. a hard attack on Machado. He also hit Oakland catcher Derek Norris with his backswing several times in this series.

Then the game 4, the 10th round, a ball on the ground at Arcia and a game that looked bad at first, and terribly flagrant slow motion in high definition. Machado said that he "was trying to overtake him and bump his foot in. If it's dirty, it's dirty, I do not know, call it what you want."

Yelich was happy to comply.

"It was a difficult baseball game, but it did not belong in our game," Yelich said. "I mean, we are all on the ground, go through the bag as if you had done it all your life, like everyone else.

"If it's an accident, it's an accident, but during the proofreading, for us, it seems clear that you are doing everything in your power to trample on someone, meet someone, It is unacceptable.

"Honestly, I do not know his problem, I know him and I have been playing against him for a long time, it has no place in the game."

Aguilar and Machado have crossed several levels at the same time and are friendly, said Aguilar. They remain so even after the imbroglio of Game 4.

"We talked and we are good," said Aguilar. "I have known Machado for a long time and we have already spoken.

"I know him very well and he's already gone, we've turned the page and now we have to come play tomorrow."

Several teammates said they did not see the play or watch the replay, but it's about as plausible as Milwaukee's lack of beer to drink.

"Yes, everyone (saw it)," Aguilar said. "Some guys were really angry, but we're just trying to win the game, he did it (excuse me), and that's why I say we're good."
