You bring up an interesting point: the reason there is no “jerk wad prancing and chest pounding” in MLB is because someone will get drilled the next inning.
Doesn’t even have to be the next inning, it could be a game 3 months down the road. That’s one of the benefits of having a 162 game regular season, self policing still works even with umps warning benches. No one wants 90+ anywhere much less in the eye socket. Same thing with a lot of pitchers not hitting. They’ll just stick your hot hitter.
Here’s the Sumo match throwing thing, I guess the guys who are 7-7 in a tournament win their next match a ridiculous amount of the time, or at least they did at one time.
