With all the fighting that has taken place in the first half of the 2016 baseball season, we here at uSports decided to put together a compilation of the Best Baseball Brawls of All Time. We hope you like our list, but if not, feel free to comment, tweet or email us with your questions, suggestions or critiques. Enjoy! 10. EXPOS VS. PHILLIES (September 24, 1996) Pedro Martinez has been called a "head-hunter" several times over the course of his career, but unlike when he played in the American League, early in his career Pedro had to defend himself at the plate. Which brings us to this gem from 1996 when the Expos were still the Expos and Pedro had swapped his jheri curl for a cleaner look. He's also a little slimmer than when he was playing for the Mets. It all started when Martinez drilled Gregg Jeffries in the ribs and you can hear the air escape from Jeffries chest. Phillies starter Mike Williams responds by throwing at Martinez as he squares to bunt. Williams misses in his first attempt, but then throws behind his opposite number the very next pitch. Martinez storms the mound, throws his helmet at Williams and the fun begins. Oh Pedro! 9. DODGERS VS. DIAMONDBACKS (June 11, 2013) In a more recent brawl, the Diamondbacks and Dodgers had both benches clear onto the field for a fracas that began between two pitchers and ended with two coaches needing to be separated. Diamondbacks starter Ian Kennedy hits Dodgers starter Zack Greinke with a fastball up and in. The umpire immediately ejects Kennedy and Arizona Manager Matt Williams and Greinke struggles to gather his senses. Meanwhile, the Dodgers bench rushes toward Kennedy and the scene soon becomes chaotic with LA Manager Don Mattingly shoving a Diamondbacks coach to the ground. The two best parts of this brawl are: Vin Scully's play-by-play of the brawl is so soothing you would think he was calling a golf tournament and it is so detailed that you can tell exactly what is going on beneath the pile. Mark McGwire goes '98 roid-rage and looks like he is going to kill Kurt Gibson. 8. YANKEES VS. ORIOLES (May 19, 1998) The Yankees will be featured prominently on this list, appearing three separate times, against two different teams. This installment gets underway with Orioles reliever Armando Benitez (Yes Mets fans, that Armando Benitez) throwing a dart right into the middle of Tino Martinez back. New York's bench and bullpen empties onto the field and, of all people, starter Graeme Lloyd breaks through the restrainers and gets into Benitez face. Pay close attention to Yankees third baseman Scott Brosius here. He appears to challenge Benitez after Lloyd misfires and then Brosius realizes that he is half the size of Benitez and backs down. It's kind of like when you're chasing your sibling around the house and then you catch them, but they are so incensed that you get scared and run and now they start chasing you. Of course Darryl Strawberry gets a piece of the action that eventually spills into the dugout. 7. YANKEES VS. RED SOX (October 11, 2003) The next clip marks the time most of America began to hate A-Rod. Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez is plunked by Red Sox starter Bronson Arroyo. The pitch hit Rodriguez on the elbow pad so little to no damage was done, but A-Rod wasn't happy about it. As A-Rod is walking up the first baseline, jawing at Arroyo, Sox catcher Jason Varitek intervenes and when Rodriguez turn his fury toward V-tek, Boston's catcher blasts him in the face. Not quite caught on camera, Tanyon Sturtze and Gabe Kapler get into it and Sturtz leaves the field bleeding. Kapler was never more than a great bench player but looking at him in this clip, you can tell he's a bad dude ... in a good way. 6. METS VS. REDS (October 8, 1973) Much like the Scully call, Bob Murphy's call of this skirmish between Reds 'Hit King' Pete Rose and Mets shortstop Bud Harrelson, from 1973, is poetic. Next to Murphy's "gets by Buckner" call in the 1986 World Series, this may be his most memorable. Harboring some bad blood, Rose deploys a late, hard slide into Harrelson as he tries to turn two. Harrelson completes the play, but is met with a punch from Rose immediately after and the two scramble around. Harrelson got in a few shots under the pile, allegedly. 5. RANGERS VS. BLUE JAYS (May 15, 2016) Maybe the favorite on the list, but not just because it happened most recently. Looking at the other brawls listed, this is definitely the clearest look at the action of all. (Technology is a beautiful thing in that regard) But also, "the punch" is so perfectly placed. And no one expects players to fight like that anymore. The tension between the Blue Jays and Rangers dates back to Game 5 of the 2015 ALDS where Jose Bautista hit a clutch home run to give Toronto a lead they would not relinquish. Bautista flipped his bat in celebration and heads are still spinning since. As a measure of revenge, Rangers starter, a journeyman rookie, Matt Bush hits Bautista in the back. A couple plays later Bautista slides hard and late into Texas shortstop Roughned Odor. And then it goes down. Odor proves revenge is a stinky cologne. 4. GIANTS VS. DODGERS (August 22, 1965) Please excuse the blurry picture, we had to dust this ditty off from 1965. Therehas never been any love lost between the Dodgers and the Giants and this brawl proves it. The players are somewhat irrelevant, even though Willie Mays was on the field playing peacemaker. Keep your eyes on No. 27 in white, he comes crashing into the picture swinging a bat. That highlight of this brawl clip is Giants Hall of Fame pitcher Juan Marichal, just in case you haven't heard this story. 3. CUBS VS. WHITE SOX (May 20, 2006) Now we are down to the nitty-gritty. It doesn't get very much better than this clip. Known for his fiery play, White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski comes barreling down the third base line on sac fly sent to left field. Pierzynski and the throw arrive at home plat at about the same time, except Cubs catcher Michael Barrett is blocking the plate. (Just as catchers were taught to do, before poor Buster Posey busted his leg) Pierzynski runs right through Barrett, pounding his hand on home plate to demonstrate just how safe he felt. Barrett didn't take to that kindly and he responds with a tight, right-cross into Pierzynski's jaw. Benches clear, and more punches are thrown. Pierzynski didn't have a choice but to run Barrett over and the response from the Cubs catcher was Busch League. That being said, Pierzynski's wrestler-style celebration afterward ruined the fact that he ate the blind-side right from Barrett. 2. YANKEES VS. RED SOX (July 24, 2004) Oh baby! Where to start? Pedro Martinez makes his second appearance on our list and does so by tossing Yankees bench coach Don Zimmer like a human bowling ball. Martinez caught a lot of flack for how he handled Zimmer, and rightfully so, but if you take a couple more looks at the clip you'll see Zimmer is clearly the aggressor. The brawl began when Pedro threw over the head of Yankees outfielder Karim Garcia. Garcia expressed his displeasure with the pitch. Later, New York's starter Roger Clemens throws one up and in to Red Sox left fielder Manny Ramirez and Manny no likey. As is the theme, benches clear and the teams scuffle. Zimmer squirts out of the pack and heads straight for Martinez who diverts Zimmer's trajectory like a bull fighter. But here is the burning question we are left with after viewing this clip ... Who is Karim Garcia? WHITE SOX VS. RANGERS (August 4, 1993) No words can do this clip justice. And that is why it is No. 1. But we will try with a few. Nolan Ryan is 46 years old in this clip, and yet, he's still throwing upper 90s chedd and haymakers of equal velocity. Some revisionists have argued that Robin Ventura actually won this fight but when you are fighting a 46 year old man and you are in your 20s, either way you lose. Sorry Robin, the world only saw the five stops made by "The Ryan Express" atop your head, not the two or three you got in beneath the pile.
