Thankfully Wright seems to be doing o.k. and in a tie game, with a runner on and ahead 0-2 Cain was certainly trying to waste a pitch but had no intention of trying to hit him much less in the head.
But Mets starter Johan Santana stood up for his teammate and threw behind fellow Venezuelan Pablo Sandoval in the sixth.
The Pandas response? A towering home run off the facade off the second deck in left center that must have left all my neighbors thinking I was watching something truly remarkable happen.
After both benches were warned Santana hit Bengie Molina, the next man up for the G-Men and while home plate umpire Brian O'Nora thought the pitch got away from Johan, Bochy wanted him tossed.
Mets skipper Charlie Manuel pulled Santana and the Giants seemed as if they were in the driver's seat.
But the wheels came off in the 8th and the Mets tied the game at 4.
Molina, just like Sandoval came through in a big way after getting thrown at.
The Giants catcher homered off closer Franky Rodriguez to start the 10th and the Giants wound up with a 5-4 win.
Sanchez goes tomorrow as the Giants look for their second straight win at Citi Field.
