The word "protecting" I think you are taking in a physical sense. Having a batter spout off a ton of things to your pitcher could possibly affect his confidence etc. Pitcher seeing your teammates having your back gives you that confidence back. McCann was "protecting" as any catcher should.

I can see the sticking up for your teammate argument. I doubt Gomez acting like an idiot really did anything to Maholm's confidence and would be surprised if a benches clearing scrum helped calm him down or get his confidence back if he had lost it. But like I said I can see McCann thinking he needed to stick up for his teammate and teach Gomez a lesson.
