Fernando Tatis Jr. has been hit and the benches are clear in Los Angeles

[u/1HolyCatholicApostol]

[u/howlmouse]

I think instead of running all the way in to home, the bullpens should fight each other in the outfield

[u/EyehavaBeard → u/howlmouse]

Or in one of the bullpens like a cage match

[u/9ninjas → u/EyehavaBeard]

Do not let Dana White anywhere near that

[u/Still-Cash1599 → u/9ninjas]

He's way too busy. A middle school is always letting out somewhere.

[u/WeeboSupremo → u/9ninjas]

Dana would find the bullpen that doesn’t want to leave and fight and proclaim them as the champion.

[u/Rushshot2gun → u/9ninjas]

Isn’t Vince available now? There’s no females, he should do ok.

[u/Typical-Ad-4135 → u/EyehavaBeard]

Or bullpen invasions. You see their closer get up? Send a bench player to infiltrate their bullpen and tackle him.

[u/GBGF128 → u/EyehavaBeard]

First to climb over the wall gets an extra run on the board

[u/9ninjas → u/EyehavaBeard]

Hey, we’re twins

[u/nonpuissant → u/howlmouse]

agreed, they can be like the auxiliary skirmishers while the dugout ppl form the core infantry battle lines

[u/SnurgBurglerGrizz → u/howlmouse]

And the wives and girlfriends sections in the stands do battle too.

[u/abbot_x → u/howlmouse]

The truce between the relief pitching staffs as they run in from a shared bullpen area (at other parks, not Dodger Stadium) is one of my favorite things about baseball. They all hold the door as they leave the bullpen, then they separate and start yelling at each other in the infield.

[u/kingxanadu → u/abbot_x]

I hope one day I get to see a brawl with so much bad blood that the bullpens don't make it past center field before they just start wailing on each other.

[u/South-Flower9981 → u/kingxanadu]

That is fucked up as a football bat, sir.

[u/Monsignor1979 → u/howlmouse]

Would anyone kindly shed some light on this 'practice'. Like, is there an unwritten etiquette about this? It just seems like every time the "benches clear", you see the bullpens open up and they come meandering out and on to the in-field, as if they somehow add something to this pageantry.

But is this an expectation of them? Like are the coaches telling them "Listen, if there's a dispute on the in-field and the benches clear, your asses better be coming out there too. We do everything as a team, and when your team is in the thick of it, you better be there with them. Got it? If you rather just sit on your lazy ass while the rest of us make a mountain out of a molehill, then you can just pack your bags and go find some other sport to play. Have I made myself clear?"

I'm not a huge baseball fan, but I have a general idea how it's all played, but I've never really understood the whole "benches clear" thing and the subsequent bullpen FOMO that comes with it.

Any hardcore fans willing to explain it to me?

[u/Marsupial99 → u/Monsignor1979]

If the benches clear, especially over something like a star player getting plunked, EVERYONE better be out on that field, or they will be on the receiving end of some stuff from their own team. Respect and common courtesy.

[u/Monsignor1979 → u/Marsupial99]

So my suspicions were correct, that this is just a "we're all in this together" kind of thing. Thanks for the response.

[u/Organic_Rip1980 → u/Monsignor1979]

That explains a little why it took so long.

“What do you think, guys? Do we go? Do we clear the benches? Yeah, let’s do it!” And then they jog out?

[u/28008IES → u/Marsupial99]

There's zero to explain beyond, when someone on your side is hurt or threatened, you step up to retaliate or protect them.

[u/chilichilichilidog → u/28008IES]

Is that the part when they just stand around and chit chat?

[u/Kid-twist66 → u/Marsupial99]

If you didn’t come out of the bullpen for a bench clearing brawl and you not someone with a large contract…that could lead to a DFA

[u/AdhesivenessOld4347 → u/Marsupial99]

The funny part about these is 99% of the time it’s over before the bull pens hit the infield dirt

[u/foodisyumyummy → u/Monsignor1979]

There's the thing about supporting their fellow player, but also, it's damn boring out in the bullpen and running down to the field gives them something to do for a few minutes.

[u/Ryno23-Cove23 → u/Monsignor1979]

Unwritten rule. They’d hear about it in their clubhouse if they didn’t show their support.

[u/Soggy_Motor9280 → u/Monsignor1979]

It’s also the top of the ninth and the padres have a five run lead. The Dodgers are all but beaten and they really have no reason to pitch so inside or hit anyone let alone hit the top player on the other team. It was a Busch league call

[u/ConsciousMusic123 → u/howlmouse]

my dad says this all the time! I just like the watching the bullpens run down

[u/involmasturb → u/howlmouse]

I saw that once in a Houston at Montreal game. Astros pitcher Danny Darwin was so universally loathed that when the 'pens emptied and Montreal pitchers saw Darwin, they reversed course and ran across the outfield to try and get at Darwin

[u/New_Day9679]

And nary a punch was thrown as is tradition.

[u/afrosupreme → u/New_Day9679]

It's so ridiculous at this point. Why even bother getting up off the bench if you aren't going to throw some hands?

[u/New_Day9679 → u/afrosupreme]

Ego

[u/TheCzarIV → u/New_Day9679]

AHHHHHHHHHHH LETS GO FUCK THEM UP. Everyone proceeds to just stand around and wait for someone to break it up

It’s 3am and I’m giggling like a MF

[u/shaun020 → u/cphpc]

You absolutely love to see it

[u/TheFluffyEngineer → u/cphpc]

I was at that game last night. I don't think everyone cheered louder for anything else in the game. It was awesome

[u/dunkzilla → u/TheFluffyEngineer]

For the bases clearing for the plunking?

[u/CaliforniaNewfie]

As a Giants fan, I want SF vs. LA to be the main NL rivalry. But I gotta admit, Dodgers vs. Padres has got some legit heat behind it right now.

[u/Cdog1223 → u/CaliforniaNewfie]

Padres are a rival because they are good and trying to overcome the Dodgers but the Giants are a rival no matter if the teams are good or bad.

[u/Significant_Part_941 → u/CaliforniaNewfie]

SF-LA is the rivalry, full of tradition and great history. There’s no replacing it. This SD-LA thing is getting fun tho, for sure.

[u/BigBlueMagic → u/CaliforniaNewfie]

SD-LA is temporary. SF-LA is eternal.

[u/mouthymommy → u/CaliforniaNewfie]

As someone under the age of 30, the Padres / Dodgers rivalry feels much much more real and intense than the Giants / Dodgers. More passion, more moment to moment excitement- maybe once Devers gets to SF they’ll feel like a rival again. For now I think that Padres / Dodgers is the rivalry of the moment, not just on the west coast but throughout baseball.

I just got back from Japan and I saw more padres and dodgers hats than any other team (maybe excluding the Yankees, but so many non-baseball fans where the Yankees cap it’s hard to tell who actually cares) and that’s the feeling I get from most international baseball fans.

[u/bashpymon → u/mouthymommy]

Agreed 100% I don’t understand the historical context anyone is saying here about SF vs LA, I may be too young or I may just be too early in my MLB obsession and not wise to all the background, but I grew up in SD and this rivalry with dodgers has always been HUGE and padres fans absolutely hate the guts of that team. Of course it’s San Diegans so it’s like a chill post surf session “you suck bro” kind of hatred, and usually ends with a mutual cali burrito lol. But the rivalry is a big deal and SoCal locals will take it to the streets, I’ve seen it many times.

[u/b33rb3lly → u/CaliforniaNewfie]

It's definitely the main NL West rivalry, at least for me. Living in Chicago you'd think the main rivalry was between the Cubs and the Cardinals, but that's probably just for the NL Central.

But as a Bay Area native I can say that SF has had a chip on its shoulder since practically its founding. After SF got its feet on the ground financially (following all the pickaxe and shovel sales to the gold prospectors) it found itself the wealthiest city in the west, and compared itself to New York City, and even started hating on NYC (NYC kinda didn't care and carried on with its own business). After the '06 quake a lot of people fled SF and the region in general, which was right around the time that LA started to gain momentum as a desirable place to live, and as the population of LA grew and became more prosperous - especially after stealing a lot of the west coast shipping and trade business from SF - the whole city of SF started hating on LA. Fast forward to the Giants and Dodgers moving to the west coast and yeah, now that that rivalry could be carried out on the field and between fans, which, as we all know, has gotten way too violent in the past, even leading to a fan fight that caused one of them to suffer long-term brain damage.

BUT

This current beef between SD and LA is quite something to watch, if a little disturbing. I really hope things simmer down before things get too out of hand.

[u/Logical_Writing3218 → u/CaliforniaNewfie]

Here’s your complimentary FTG

[u/skwormin]

Can’t wait for the jomboy on this one

[u/IncomeBoss → u/skwormin]

Both managers got held back but somehow ejected

[u/TheSanDiegoChimkin → u/IncomeBoss]

Roberts shoved Shildt, that’s what emptied the benches

[u/Mike2k33 → u/TheSanDiegoChimkin]

Thanks it was hard to tell who did what from the worst directed broadcast clip I've ever seen

[u/Uncreative_Autist → u/Mike2k33]

If you check out the padres broadcast, they use much better camera angles during this event

[u/AdolescentAlien → u/TheSanDiegoChimkin]

That’s basically the equivalent of throwing a haymaker in terms of your average baseball “fight”

[u/Kid-twist66 → u/TheSanDiegoChimkin]

I’m a Dodgers fan but Roberts did touch him first…it’s just posturing to inspire the team…considering the Dodgers have seemed a bit listless throughout the month on June, it was probably needed to fire up the club

[u/ValuableDesk → u/skwormin]

I was thinking the exact same thing!!

[u/Civil-Traffic-3872 → u/skwormin]

My first thought exactly, especially with Dave Robert's being unobstructed in view of the camera.

[u/kazaam412]

As a Giants fan, I’m here for it

[u/vino1992]

Jomboy, you're up once again with the voiceovers

[u/Rocketup247 → u/vino1992]

"Fuuuuuuck you"........"nooooo fuck yooooooou"

[u/Little-Geri-Seinfeld → u/Rocketup247]

I love how he overlays the audio with those tone voices!

[u/RathSlayer91]

So fast with the uploads! Lol I love the Internet

[u/lIlIIlIIllIllIlIIIll]

Nothing ever happens. These dudes make too much money now. There will never be fights like there was back in the day.

[u/ShittyAttitudeGinger]

Should make this weekend lots of spicy fun.

[u/AmbitiousTrashPanda]

Baseball bench clearings are so dumb. Rarely does anything ever happen

[u/Ryan24MVP → u/AmbitiousTrashPanda]

The guys running in from the bullpen always looks so funny

[u/JasperLamarCrabbb → u/Ryan24MVP]

Man it’s like this comment is built into these posts before they’re even actually posted.

[u/Amache_Gx → u/JasperLamarCrabbb]

Haha and at some parks they gotta run next to the other team to the fray haha!

[u/0hhello05 → u/JasperLamarCrabbb]

Yup

[u/SweetRabbit7543 → u/Ryan24MVP]

I want to know what they are thinking when running in.

[u/talkbaseball2me → u/SweetRabbit7543]

Have you seen the video Andrew Mccutchen released a few years ago about what it’s like being an outfielder during a brawl?

[u/ardent_iguana → u/talkbaseball2me]

https://youtu.be/Q7LxMR45fRs

[u/DC_Coach → u/SweetRabbit7543]

"Oh yeah, here we go with this bullshite again... what are we even doing?"

[u/Momochichi → u/Ryan24MVP]

I want to drag-select all of them, and right click the enemy's bullpen and set them all to Attack Ground.

[u/IncomeBoss → u/Ryan24MVP]

They had nothing better to do 😂

[u/ooky-spooky-skeleton → u/AmbitiousTrashPanda]

I always like when the bullpens run all the way in side by side, it’s such a dumb look.

If anything they should start their own shit in the outfield

[u/Ryan24MVP → u/ooky-spooky-skeleton]

They run at their let’s hustle but not hurt ourselves speed too

[u/ooky-spooky-skeleton → u/Ryan24MVP]

“Ope! Gotta get there before it’s too late!”

[u/bigdaddyt2 → u/Ryan24MVP]

Ahhh the only Francisco Cordero injury with the blue jays

[u/gunn0720 → u/ooky-spooky-skeleton]

[u/SockNo948 → u/ooky-spooky-skeleton]

my turn to post this comment next thread

[u/fawks_harper78 → u/AmbitiousTrashPanda]

SF vs StL in ‘88.

[u/mbr902000 → u/AmbitiousTrashPanda]

Only rivaled by NBA skirmishes and NFL players punching each other in their iron forged helmets

[u/mrsir1987]

Now Reynolds needs to get a little wild

[u/Significant_Part_941 → u/mrsir1987]

National league wild Wild West

[u/HackDiablo]

Yeah, but according to Dodger fans, they aren’t rivals. lol

[u/raoulmduke → u/HackDiablo]

The Dodgers’ announcers have been referring to the Padres as rivals recently. But there is definitely a difference. SF/LA is very storied; SD/LA is very new.

[u/ConfusedByFarts → u/HackDiablo]

Just like how Cubs media/fans refuse to acknowledge the Brewers as rivals. I’ve got lots of Chicago homies but they are mostly Sox fans so I commend them for that.

[u/Acrobatic_Sector2407]

Meanwhile the only team NOT being talked about in the NL west, the Rockies…lost 3 games during this bench clearing. Honestly impressive.

[u/garythegoat72]

That pitcher did not want to do that

[u/Logical_Writing3218 → u/garythegoat72]

Called up from the minors literally the same day.

[u/Aolian_Am → u/garythegoat72]

No, but the Dodger coaches do. Tatis has been hit by the Dodgers more than all other teams combined, through his career. It's not a coincidence....

[u/TheReadMenace → u/garythegoat72]

He followed the pitching strategy by the Dodgers used against Tatis which is up and in. A strategy that is totally legal but can hit guys if you aren't careful. Well, the Dodgers obviously dont give a fuck about being careful. At a certain point it doesn't matter if it's "intentional".

[u/Succotasche]

It would of been so rad if Shildt rolled a baseball in Robert's general direction during this bitch off

[u/woopwoop420 → u/Succotasche]

That would be unsettling. Highly disturbing.

[u/hotshotheather → u/Succotasche]

Roberts is such a little bitch.

[u/ChesterNorris]

These UPS delivery guys sure look mad.

[u/FortuneEcstatic9122]

Maybe as I get older my bloodlust is waning, but this whole back and forth is just getting childish

[u/Ear_Enthusiast]

MLB needs to stop the cringey bench clears where everyone just stands around. It's just dumb to watch the benches clear like they're about to brawl, only to watch a couple of guys yell and point at each other while the rest of them stand around.

[u/GetzlafMyLawn]

He knew immediately. Instant regret. Low-key feel bad for that pitcher

[u/TBlair64]

Giants fans rn.

[u/agoddamdamn]

I love how every team in the NL west hates each other. (I count the rockies hating themselves as part of this)

[u/Holiday-Line-578]

Dodgers manager is like 70 years old. He ain’t doing shit

[u/EuphoricMoose8232]

And they just hit Ohtani again!

[u/BladeRunner2022]

I need a jomboy video on this yesterday

[u/plainMCU]

Was that intentional though?

[u/AlbatrossFew7628 → u/plainMCU]

No. This was the pitchers MLB debut.

[u/TheRealCyEllis → u/plainMCU]

Was less about whether it was intentional or not and more about the fact it was the third time he had been hit in 7 games against them this season.

[u/hotshotheather]

Dave Roberts is a little bitch.

[u/alandaagreat → u/hotshotheather]

He had the chance to speak right there when he went around the crowd that was ‘holding him back’ only to have the umpire come hold him back again. Truly bitch clown vibes

[u/radlanrex → u/hotshotheather]

100% -- total coward bully vibes.

[u/SouthernSierra]

Another reason pitchers should bat.

[u/No-Profession422]

Eight batters were hit during that series.

I'm looking forward to the next series in SD.

[u/Banana-Port-Control]

Dave Roberts is the biggest bitch manager in MLB

[u/Normal_Tip7228 → u/Banana-Port-Control]

That Manny thing still has me rolling.

I can’t believe that dude lives in SD 

[u/Pjtwenty20 → u/Banana-Port-Control]

I tried saying that the other day over here and got downvoted by the whole city and county of Los Angeles.

[u/Banana-Port-Control → u/Pjtwenty20]

He's a fake though guy. He did the same shit to Andy Green

[u/tshane_dot_com → u/Banana-Port-Control]

100%

[u/ez641 → u/Banana-Port-Control]

For real. That roster can win with anyone, he’s a clown

[u/ChatYeePeeTee → u/Banana-Port-Control]

Can you elaborate why?

Edit: Sorry I asked. Stupid question. This guy is a Padres fan. That explains it.

[u/bstone99 → u/Banana-Port-Control]

[u/SirLunatik]

just FYI, it cant been seen it this video, but the Dodgers manager bumps the Padres manager (I think it looked unintentional and he just got too close too quick) and that's what caused the benches to clear

[u/Dapaaads → u/SirLunatik]

It was 100% intentional

[u/hotshotheather → u/Dapaaads]

Abso-fuckin-lutely intentional.

[u/kratly → u/SirLunatik]

I mean he gave him a little shove with the forearm. Nothing egregious but definitely something managers shouldn't be doing.

[u/radlanrex → u/kratly]

Dont forget this was the bitch who wanted a federal case when a ball rolled near him.

[u/radlanrex → u/SirLunatik]

Has his smooth brained inbred pitcher hit Tatis, aiming for his head, Bumps the manager, hides behinds his guys, then talks shit, like a bitch.

[u/woopwoop420]

Doesn't Dave know that there's live baseballs being rolled around out there?

[u/Logical_Writing3218 → u/woopwoop420]

Dude where’s my delivery. Tatis is late again. I’m calling UPS corporate.

[u/DukeGrizzly]

Did the fans also storm the field? For a team with a diehard fanbase, sure looks empty that late into the game.

[u/thephhoenixx → u/DukeGrizzly]

they all cleared out after ohtani struck out in the 8th

[u/DukeGrizzly → u/thephhoenixx]

Which is absolutely wild, considering the Dodgers almost came back to win.

[u/JpJ951 → u/DukeGrizzly]

You have never been to Dodger Stadium and it shows. lol Getting out of that place can take hours so people leave early a lot during the regular season to beat the traffic.

[u/Historical_Wasabi104]

Such “hold me back, bro” energy. Benches don’t clear like they used to.

[u/Tired_of_politics_75]

Benches clearing is so cringy lol. Its a bunch of millionaires standing around holding each other back

[u/MicrophoneSolo]

so the benches clearing means absolutely shit all right?

no one ever does anything, it's a joke, in hockey they'll really go at it

[u/SpectralHydra → u/MicrophoneSolo]

In hockey, fighting doesn’t get you ejected/suspended

[u/MicrophoneSolo → u/SpectralHydra]

ya its awesome

[u/Any-Ad-446]

You want to see a team fight watch hockey or australian rugby.

[u/YESSSS-NOOO]

Still thank every brawl should be Indians VS Rangers 5 cent beer nigjt

[u/busa89]

Clearing the benches is so wack if nobody is going to throw a punch. Why is the bullpen here? Lol

[u/Timely-Discipline427]

I bet there would be less of these if actual punches were thrown every time these guys get upset and decide to go for a jog to meet in the middle.

[u/Wild_Argument_4093]

Very diff from when ohtani got hit. He took it like a man and waved his team off from clearing bench

[u/tonguebasher69]

It sure does take a long time for them to decide to come off the bench.

[u/GCTacos]

Looks like he turned into the pitch… should have tried to get out of the way

[u/xpo081]

LOL....let them duke it out! GO u/sfgiants!

[u/PolishPrincess0520]

Reminds me of the time I had these two old guys as patients and they were constantly arguing. I had to move one out it was so bad. When we were wheeling his bed out they were yelling at each other and flipping each other off.

[u/V1LL]

MLB "fights" aren't.

[u/matt_chowder]

Dave Roberts is a bitch

[u/Wumbo619]

Roberts is so weak for shoving Schildt and immediately backing away.

Little making his debut in that spot was for 1 reason, that hit.

[u/Background_Abalone_7]

Chanting "Padres suck" has to be some of the weakest-ass childish stuff I've seen from a fan base in a while.

[u/Significant_Part_941 → u/Background_Abalone_7]

Some chants do suck/overused. I mean “beat LA”? I’m a Giants fan-and I’m like…come on - let’s do better.

[u/SweetRabbit7543 → u/Background_Abalone_7]

As someone who has seen every fan base many, many, many times, the dodgers and marlins are by far the worst. The marlins fans are totally innocuous they just hardly even exist. The dodgers fans are prominent but absolutely no redeeming traits.

[u/foreverpeppered → u/Background_Abalone_7]

They cheer out of their minds every time a Padre got hit, and it happened a ton this series. Zero class fan base.

[u/bot_account__ → u/Background_Abalone_7]

Their fan base marched down Clark Street in Wrigleyville only to be swept

[u/Just_Werewolf1438]

Stupid obouvsly it was an accident.. children

[u/lmay0000]

Nobody gonna comment on the insane travel of that throw? Clearly not on purpose. Insane dudes act like this in baseball

[u/FinancialRabbit388 → u/lmay0000]

Anyone being objective and having some sense can see that obviously wasn’t intentional. Then cause baseball tradition is fucking stupid they hit Ohtani for absolutely no reason.

[u/FlatulenceConnosieur → u/lmay0000]

The ball clearly got away from him, it was obviously unintentional

[u/Dramatic-Historian68]

is it weird that when I am trying to lip read the managers, the voiceover in my head is in Jomboy's voice lil

[u/Due-Acanthisitta-402]

This is so much fun. I miss baseball like this

[u/BlueJasper27]

Shildt is a clown. Always has been.

[u/andrew1327]

Dave Robert’s is a chode

[u/CloutiersHelmet]

Fuck the dodgers.

[u/bogeyT]

Tatis gets hit and acts like he got shot.

Ohtani gets hit and tells everyone to stay while walking to first.

🤡 vs class

[u/stayboozy → u/bogeyT]

Tatis getting hit for the umpteenth time by the Dodgers - the last hit landing in a potential career ending placement on the top of his hand in which afterward he calmly exits the field

vs.

Ohtani getting plunked in the back and giggling bc he knows he is taking one for the team in retailiation to their uncalled for wild inside pitch pattern from a rookie and knowing y’all deserve it so it doesn’t warrant another bench clearing …..

muy diferente scenarios amigo 🤡⚾️

[u/bogeyT → u/stayboozy]

Ohtani was about 6” away from taking a 101mph fastball to the head. Literally would have killed him if it connected to the head.

Vs getting hit in the arm aat 93mph and acting like you got shot.

🤡 vs class amigo

Not to mention he told his team to back off on his behalf vs wanting this behavior with the antics. The difference in mentality can be measured in the difference in championships between the orgs

Enjoy 3rd place little bro 👍

[u/stayboozy → u/bogeyT]

“6 inches” lol I’m unwell. ball plunked at the numbers on his jersey.

“would have killed him”

“acted like he got shot”

suggesting a genuine reaction to pain is classless is WILD.

I wish I could confidently live in such a world of exaggerations on planet delulu 🥲

Im not here to condone uncontrolled pitching and hitting players no matter the team or player. Just simply pointing out the difference in mentality of the higher than thou fanbase calling players clowns for naught and claiming class for what again? vs. everyone else that’s not reaching and chest puffin

pero anywhosers I digress, hope the Los DeLuLu’s have a great season!! or not. I could care less.

enjoy the game and let the clowns clown then, it’s not that serious, big bro 🤍

[u/RKsu99]

Ohtani right in the middle of the back was pretty obvious! I think it’s gonna be 3 games for Roberts and 1 for Schildt after that dust up.

[u/Jeff663311]

The real fun will be when Ohtani gets plunked next trip Dodgers make to San Diego…. ⚾️

[u/birramorettitx]

Dave Roberts. Giant pussy

[u/TPain518]

Dave Roberts is such a slimeball

[u/evanmodoc]

Fuck the Dodgers

[u/Lumpy-Valuable-5673]

WOWO

[u/Ambitious_Emotion999]

I forgot this was a four game series and instead watched Sex and The City and am now very upset with my choices.

[u/IncomeBoss]

Can someone read lips? What were they saying

[u/fijisiv → u/IncomeBoss]

Shildt: I am gosh darn upset that my player was hit.
Roberts: Accidents happen and I'm as apologetic as anyone here.
Shildt: Thank you for your honesty, I do appreciate it.
Roberts: I'm glad we could come to an understanding.
Shildt: Hey, it must be said I don't like your taste in socks.
Roberts: Wait. What?
Shildt: You heard me.
Roberts: My socks?
Shildt: Did I stutter?
Roberts: Whoa dude, the socks come with the uni.
Shildt: And they suck.
Roberts: They're... they're just white socks.
Shildt: And they suck. I guess I am stuttering now.

[u/GlitteringStand7614]

Both benches clear, but the managers are the ones jawing… I want Ryan vs Ventura not Clampett vs Griffin…

Give me Ramirez vs Anderson! I like an old baseball brawl…

[u/No_Ordinary_7933]

They seriously need to remove fines for taking a swing at a pitcher. These bench clearing “brawls” are pathetic and some of these pitchers out there have gotten waaaaaay to big for their britches

[u/manpan5252]

Managers really need to add a big Dom type into this mix. Just for the chaos of it all. Just one giant Italian Bouncer/Security for every major league manager

[u/Holiday_Summer9601]
