The Giants didn't really retaliate against Vicente Padilla, who broke Aaron Rowand's cheekbone in a game a few weeks ago.
Santiago Casilla threw behind Padilla.
"What happened last time was unintentional. It wasn't personal," Padilla said. "What they did today, I understand. They have to protect their players. I respect their decision. They didn't throw at my face or my head. That could end a career."
Rowand stayed away from the topic, telling reporters, "If you want to ask questions about the game, I'll answer you. If you're going to ask about Padilla, I'm not commenting."
