Buster Posey is not about that life, apparently.
Posey’s teammate Hunter Strickland got into a fight with Bryce Harper on the mound during Sunday’s game — in which the two exchanged blows — but the Giants catcher wanted no business at all in getting involved.
Normally, you see a catcher stand up for his pitcher, as one of the first players to step into the line of fire, but not in Posey’s case. Strickland and Harper confronted each other while Posey sat idle, and when the two began exchanging haymakers, he remained that away — idle.

Posey said his concussion history didn’t have an impact on his lack of “participation” in the skirmish.
Posey said his concussion didn't enter his mind as he decided to hang back. But acknowledged risk of getting involved with bodies flying.
