I am not sure what more you want him to do. Sit out the rest of the weekend because the Royals don't want to let it go?

They threw at the Royals again today knowing they wouldn't lose a pitcher. All bets are off. Lawrie should have known he was at the crosshairs. If he's fortunate, he'll be out of the lineup when the Royals go to Oakland. He was anything but calm today.
The Royals hit them where it hurt anyway with a three run 8th inning. That's the best way to retaliate. It's not surprising they came alive after Herrera was tossed.
FWIW......It's been a fantastic series. Can't wait to see the games in Oakland.
