Brawls!

This is the shot in the arm the Yankees need

it's crazy how mad adults get at things

coddled-from-childhood pro athletes = ~adults

they've never been on the B63 bus at rush hour

Castellanos did talk about the first benches-clearing incident, which led to a brawl in the sixth inning. With Miguel Cabrera and Austin Romine tussling on the ground, Castellanos went diving in to try to break things up.

There, Castellanos got punched, by his count, five times, including once from Gary Sanchez, whose sucker-punch game seems to match his power game.

“You go look at that, how many punches did I throw? Zero,” Castellanos said. “And I had ... five people on top of me, and I’m getting drilled from all angles. For somebody that’s not throwing any punches? You guys be the judge of that.”

my reason for suspending Romine wd be "general dickishness"

Players, coaches and managers converged, with several fights erupting. It took the umpires nearly 10 minutes to restore order.

• Pirates pitcher Keone Kela has received a 10-game suspension for intentionally throwing a pitch in the area of the head of Derek Dietrich of the Reds in the bottom of the seventh inning and for his role in instigating the bench-clearing incident.
• Reds pitcher Amir Garrett has received an eight-game suspension for inciting the bench-clearing incident by running to the area outside the Pirates’ dugout and throwing a punch in the top of the ninth inning.
• Pirates infielder José Osuna has received a five-game suspension for his aggressive and inappropriate actions during the ninth inning incident.
• Reds pitcher Jared Hughes has received a three-game suspension for intentionally throwing a pitch at Starling Marte of the Pirates in the top of the ninth inning.
• Pirates pitcher Kyle Crick has received a three-game suspension for his inappropriate actions during the ninth inning incident.
• Cleveland Indians outfielder Yasiel Puig, who was then a member of the Reds, has received a three-game suspension for his aggressive actions during the ninth inning incident.
• Reds manager David Bell has received a six-game suspension for returning to the field following his ejection; escalating the incident with his aggressive actions; his Club’s intentional pitch at Marte; and his numerous ejections this season.
• Pirates manager Clint Hurdle has received a two-game suspension for his Club’s conduct during the incident and his Club’s multiple intentional pitches thrown at Dietrich this season.

kela's mistake was admitting that he'd thrown at dietrich. still kinda surprised he got more than garrett tho

is six games for a manager a record?

Dietrich must have honked off most of the division, as the Brewers also hit him 3 times in a game earlier this year.

that may have stoked the flames and helped lead to the 10 Cent Beer Night riot a few nights later between the same two teams

Man seems like nobody likes the Astros anymore.

laureano needs to work on his approach

in the spirit of the thread, youre sposed to link to some clips (I haven't seen any yet)

apparently this was the 3rd time he was hit this series, second time in a row - and the Astros fuckface hitting coach was taunting him from the dugout.

yep, Cintron appears at least as guilty as Laureano if not moreso

The tough guy on Astros bench deserves 10 games for telling Laureano to come at him and 40 for hiding behind everyone else when he did. https://t.co/1wbdextB4Y

20-game suspension for cintron

laureano got five

not terrible, laureano can still appeal ya?

A 20-game suspension for a coach is nearly unprecedented, no?

he was being a real special asshole

Yeah, I'd kick him out of the majors if I were commish, that's some first-class yellow-bellied chicken shit.
