Mariners' Robles throws bat at pitcher following HBP in rehab game
Victor Robles appears to have had enough of minor-league pitching during his rehab assignment.
The Seattle Mariners outfielder took exception to being hit by a pitch during the third inning of Sunday's game with Triple-A Tacoma. Seconds after being drilled, Robles picked up his bat and threw it in the direction of Las Vegas Aviators pitcher Joey Estes.
It's the fourth time in five games against Las Vegas that Robles has been hit by a pitch.

Robles was ejected from the game and proceeded to throw things on field from the dugout.
The 28-year-old is with Tacoma as he makes his way back from a dislocated left shoulder suffered in early April while making an incredible catch in San Francisco.
