The slide was legal. But he came in hard, with a leg in the air, slid past the bag, and it looked like his left hand may have connected with Daly’s crotchal region. Daly had every right to be mad and say something, and the other dude should expect it after a slide like that. If he just goes to the dugout it’s over and everything is fine. But he had to run his mouth …

the dude lifted his right foot, came in spikes high and slid past the bag.  I can see why Daly was pissed. Daly's feet weren't in front of the bag.

I thought it was dirty at first, but the slide was clean. The throw location brought Daly right into his path. He didn't have his leg up until he turned to the side after hitting Daly and the bag.

i'm with hank . hand on junk -all bets off . had it  been a strike .....

What is he supposed to do, slide with arms pinned to his side and not try to protect his body? 

You can clearly see in the 2nd photo his arm is up into Daly's shoulder/chest before the collision. Daly then flips over the top of him.

How people think he made a deliberate nut shot in the split second of an unpredictable collision where the guy flies over his head,  is beyond me. It's a completely normal reaction to keep the arm up in front of you and push the person about to teabag you away.

There was nothing wrong at all with that slide.

Everybody make a bookmark, because this is rare - DD is 100% correct.  Good, clean, hard slide.  Not a thing wrong with it.  His foot comes up at the end of the slide having gone over the base, which protrudes quite a bit.  He was not trying to spike Daly.  Not in the slightest.

‘All the hullabaloo was nothing more than pent up angst between the two teams and the slide was a pin juuuuust big enough to pop the balloon.

That’s it.  That’s all there was.

Also note he did slide past the base but not so far that he was off of it. Normal slide, unfortunate result, tempers flare. It happens. 

Disagree that it was a normal slide on a stolen base attempt.  No reason to slide that far past the base.  Not saying it was dirty, just not normal.  To break up a DP, yeah.  But not on a steal.

 

Also got a kick out of KS announcers saying he was trying to apologize to Daly, when he was very clearly saying "Fuck you!"

Lots of guys slide over the bag so that their momentum gets any slowed sooner than necessary. 
 

the apology was when he grabbed his arm before he started jogging off, thinking he was out.  Daly said something, he turns around, and then starts with the fuck yous to daly and/or faltine.

He originally did try to apologize, then Daly said something to him as he was walking away and the dude clapped back with “Fuck you!”.

… and has anyone noted Daly’s left knee is on the ground in the baseline?  Yet, he’s untouchable according to the Orange Tinted crew?

I think we have a pair of mouthy middle IF who need to play more and talk less.

Sounds like the majority of this team honestly.

Slide into 2nd. Don't know what Daly was upset about, throw was up the first base side and he got there late, a clean slide into 2nd base if you ask me

 

Watching Kash during this whole thing is hilarious.
