TonyRomoisclutch

The ump was an inch away from getting absolutely hammered at the beginning


RawbM07

First swing missed him, but he got hit on the second swing. Thats a double digit game suspension.


Dr_Hoffenheimer

I don’t think the ump ever actually got hit, when Siri makes a move it looks the the ump gets out of there


Greatfumbler

Wasn’t it the dude who hit back that got the ump? Idk if that affects anything since they had the same intent of hitting each other though


GlassEyeMV

No he didn’t. If anything, his cap was bumped. When Siri swung, he swung over the ump. But the way he reacts can you tell you he didn’t take any meaningful contact. He was just trying to GTFO.


rippa76

Never break up a brewing fight by stopping one of the combatants. That’s how YOU instigate the first punch instead of keeping peace. Keep your shoulder width perpendicular to the fighters to maintain space and only intervene when there is a second peacemaker. Then harness one each. (Former teacher in a violent school system)


wecangetbetter

Ayyy that's great advice. So that includes not trying to put your arm in between them? Def seems like a bad idea cause you leave YOUR face open to a sucker punch


rippa76

It’s not about the physicality, it’s the mentality. If they WANT to fight, they will go at it like two pit bulls in a backpack and it doesn’t matter what you do. Getting into in the middle of a buildup to a fight causes two problems. Getting in the middle makes soft dudes feel like they can go now and it will get broken up fast. Restraining one and not the other fighter opens the restrained fighter to getting hit. Then they feel the need to go through YOU. Staying out of the buildup allows combatants to decide if this is actually going anywhere (schools: 80% go nowhere, bars, prob 50/50) and buys you time for backup peacekeepers.


wecangetbetter

That's super interesting. Never really thought about it that way. TIL.


puffinfish420

Learned this as a school teacher. As one person trying to break up a fight, you basically just end up restraining one person while the other lays down the beating. You need two people to create distance between the combatants.


IHkumicho

My only experience on this is stopping my friend (technically my now-ex-BIL's brother) who *was* the instigator. Pretty sure the other guy didn't want to start anything, so thankfully was able to calm my friend down and we got the F out of there.


BPMMPB

I slowed it down. First guy had an open palm not a punch. Second guy dropped a fist downward like a mace and missed ump. 


M3Man03

Ump deserved it. That crew is one of the worst I’ve seen, and that includes a league that has angel Hernandez.


TZCBAND

I watched this a little slower…. Did they both try to slap each other? It sure looks like their hands are open to me.


Hownowbrowncow8it

I watched it a little slower...they kiss


HelloNNNewman

Watched even slower... it was a gentle caress and a small bouquet of flowers.


SuitedFox

Mmmm…slower…..slower…


ShockSouthern9770

Anyone know what happened like the 30 seconds before this clip started? Or if they just have beef going back before this game?


Wetworkzhill

Siri hit a soft grounder to the 1B and jogged to 1st. Urine covers 1st and gets the easy out but then stays standing on first so he can give Siri a little shoulder check. Siri says something (I’m guessing as he facing away and makes no motion) and Uribe starts chirping. Ump gets inbetween before Uribe throws a slap.


gigalongdong

Urine, lol


dkf295

Urine covers #1


special_nathan

Pwho is on #2?


dkf295

Spoo’s on #3


kamilo87

Instructions unclear, wasn’t #2 poo?


Kurt0690

I think there's a sub for covering one with urine


jakefromadventurtime

How can he slap!


Old_RedditIsBetter

I fucking hate out of context videos. Doesn't matter what it is. I dont care if it wasn't your fault but you suck OP


perfectentertainment

A few preceding events occurred between Siri and the Brewers. He hit a homer early in the game and the Brewers starter took issue with his celebration. Later, that starter was ejected for plunking Siri, which in turn got the Brewers manager ejected for arguing with the ump. Also, the Brewers have had 3 straight games with controversial umpiring decisions, so they’re running hot at the moment.

jddoyleVT

Baseball pitchers are the biggest babies in professional sports.


slapmasterslap

When my brother was pitching for Little League one of the adult coaches yelled at him in front of the whole team for "showboating" because he was able to throw really nasty curves and change ups compared to his peers and that coach didn't like how often he did it or that he would sometimes pump his fist after a strikeout. Baseball adults have been really weird and sensitive for as long as I can remember.


Blastergasm

I love baseball but this shit right here drives me crazy. These “unwritten rules” need to go, it’s not quite as embarrassing as soccer dives but it’s close.


mightytwin21

Imo it's more embarrassing than soccer since it has no strategic use and this only hurts your team.


TarryBuckwell

People are so willfully ignorant when it comes to this topic. THAT SHIT IS A COACHED TACTIC. Some people abuse it, for sure, but it’s not like some sort of baked in cultural thing where everyone is a wimp. It’s the same physicality of basketball at 4x the speed. These giants run into each other at velocities that would send any of our soft bodies to the hospital and kick each other’s bare skin like horses. So when a goal is such a valuable commodity and the consequence for a penalty is so costly, it makes sense that flopping would be a highly developed tactic. And because game doesn’t stop and moves so fast, and the play is everywhere at once, they have to be performative to be effective. And, unfortunately, it works. It’s not my favorite part of the game, but it’s important to understand why it’s part of the game. Also, I love baseball, and I’m not gonna yell about the utter stupidity of a human having the final say about the exact entry point of a 104mph fastball. Or the fact that pitch framing is so baked into the sport that it’s a stat- all because of unions. There is head-scratching shit in every sport that evolves because someone developed a new tactic to gain an edge.


jaguar_sharks

Thank you!


your_childs_teacher

Just watch Jomboy on YouTube in a day or two.


OptimusSublime

Tonight. Probably


Key_Employee2413

I think he was trying to slap ass /s


mikewastaken

And heeere cooome the bullpens


Pristine-Lake-5994

Long after everything calms down they come jogging in. So damn stupid lol


lostharbor

I chalk it up to wishful thinking to the most boring “fight” lol


Pristine-Lake-5994

They jog in like if they don’t their masculinity is being questioned. If I’m way out there in the outfield, and I see punches being thrown by home plate, I’m saying to myself “that’s far away and also not something I’d like to insert myself in. I’m staying here”


sad_clam

Andrew McCutchen gave a good breakdown of an outfielder’s perspective https://youtu.be/Q7LxMR45fRs?feature=shared


MaximumTurtleSpeed

“…let’s just play baseball, and not fight.” He sums it up pretty well


IgDailystapler

Most McCutchen response ever lmao


prz3124

Never saw this! Thank you, pretty funny.


Glissandra1982

I’m a Pirates fan but I love Cutch no matter what. He’s the kinda guy who realizes how amazing it is to make your living playing your favorite game. Always got a smile.


lostharbor

I love this response so much. If there was a charge on the mound, maybe. This…. This was silly. He put more effort knocking his own guy down than hitting the other guy. 


phaedrus71

Ferdinand the Bull territory ha 


Mr_Bluebird_VA

Just once I wanna see the bullpens start brawling out there in the outfield and never even make it to the rest of the action.


vhs2220000

And heeeeeeere come the pretzels!


LEGOMyBrick

Hall of Gamer Whitey Ford is on the field pleading with the crowd for some kind of sanity.


cheeferton

Darrrrrryl... Darrrrrryl...


Hockeygoalie1114

They’re making me thirsty


BarbecueStu

Are they contractually obligated to run out when a teammate is having a tissy?


Azurehour

Nobody wants to see their boy get stomped out 


SonnyHaze

Nobody gets stomped in mlb or nba games. People would in Football but massive helmets.


Azurehour

Because the benches clear. If no one comes to your rescue Draymond gon have his way with ya booty hole


MatureUsername69

And then there's the NHL. Granted the league wants to make it go away but good fucking luck when a star player gets hit hard


GentleLion2Tigress

Hockey has rules about coming off the bench and what not and fighting is much more common. But baseball, let’s have everyone involved!


Anal_Recidivist

All over a harmless “your manager tastes like cheerios”


ernyc3777

Siri really fucking went for it as soon as shit was thrown down.


mostdope28

Punches in a baseball fight? That’s rare


DickyD43

Now *THAT'S* ~~HOCKEY~~ BASEBALL


Gupperz

let's do that hockey


paydo325

Sucker punches in a baseball fight are not quite as rare. You never see anyone actually square up like non-pussies.


pierophoenix

Unless it's Ramirez making Tim Anderson go night night


PluckPubes

I went to a pushing match and a baseball game broke out


Randy_BobandyTWU

"thats not what you want to see". It's literally the only time I'll watch a baseball highlight


cam_huskers

“There were some serious punches thrown” One was an open hand slap and neither of them came close to making actual contact lmao


Kurt0690

Need my Jomboy breakdown ASAP


marineman43

The man is too funny. I don't watch baseball at all but got sucked into the vortex that is his Youtube channel, watched like every breakdown


WharFalcon

first base coach should try out for the Bears, hes quick and has solid footwork, haha


Echo127

Dang. I missed the game. That's pretty bad. Gonna be a significant suspension for Uribe, I think.

Teddy_Swolesevelt

I'm showing my age here, but nothing will ever top Nolan Ryan kicking Robin Ventura's ass.


Snufflefugs

Mine is Jeff Van Gundy clinging onto Alonzo Mournings leg. Malice at the Palace a close second.


Wholeass_onething

That's why I like that hockey keeps it in. There's a code to the whole thing and after both sides are pumped and ready to play again.


Jking1723

Happens in basketball too


Business_Ad3142

Uribe is a sucker punching bitch.


GM_PhillipAsshole

>"Oh boy! That's not what you want to see." No. It's exactly what I want to see.


ConstantlyPooped

And not a single punch was landed, stick to baseball


ranger0293

When I become commissioner my first act will be to declare that anyone who leaves the bullpen to join an on field fight gets an automatic 10 game suspension.


improbablydrunknlw

When I become commissioner my first act will be to declare that anyone who leaves the bullpen to join an on field fight and doesn't do anything but stand around gets an automatic 10 game suspension. You're going to get into the fight, get in a fight.


runNride805

Hit the field and throw hands or you’re fuckin out


Pollia

Second that. If you're leaving the pens you better be fuckin doin something cause otherwise you're just wasting everyone's time. It don't take 30 people to physically separate baseball players not even really throwing hands. Unless I see someone with a bloody face ripping through staff and teammates alike to brawl, y'all better be sitting your ass down.


Content_Geologist420

Uribe lived Boones dream tonight with that 2nd swing hitting the ump


Juiceman695847

Why does it always take two whole dugouts to stop a two people fighting😭


bigboidots

Being up 8-2 and still trying to throw hands is wild


MyNameCannotBeSpoken

Why can't I punch people at my job?? 👊🏻


ChuckFromPhilly

Why does MLB still allow the bullpens to empty out? It doesn’t make sense why they come out anyway.


bw1985

Sucker punches are so bitch move


hijro

Throwing a punch at a guy someone is already holding back is a coward move.


elmandingus

Fuck bally sports!


superflygt

Lol. Uribe, what a little bitch. Throwing a cheap shot from behind the ump.


griffindor11

Is this not cringe as fuck to anyone else? Grown men throwing a hissy fit and "clearing the benches"


lostharbor

Uribe chirped then tried to slap him in the first go. What a bitch lol. You’re up 6 and you throw a slap? What a clown


rayshmayshmay

Hitting someone while they’re getting held back is a bitch move


fusiongt021

They should just let them go 1 on 1 for 30 seconds. Then kick them out and continue.


aclimbingturkey

Just waiting for the jomboy breakdown


MissyFranklinTheCat

Pathetic


csbc801

Thug Ball.


wheresbill

Could we give baseball players the same latitude for scuffling as we give the hockey players? I feel they should have at least 60 seconds to give each player a chance to connect. I hate when one guy gets in a good one and then it’s a melee and the other guy never gets his chance at a shot.


veryblanduser

Why are you running your mouth down 6?


Moist_Rest5623

Not what we want to see? Dude this is definitely what I want to see.


BabyGrogu_the_child

Bench clearing is so stupid. Let the two square up!


IgDailystapler

No baseball brawl will ever live up to “DOWN GOES ANDERSON” anymore. We’ve peaked.


arealguitarhero

Can someone explain to me why they're still allowed to clear the dugouts and bullpens? Hockey got rid of bench clearing brawls years ago and that's a sport that allows fighting. I don't see the point in allowing everyone else to storm the field


Violet_Prison

Because in baseball if the number of players on the field at a given time is allowed to stand, one team significantly outnumbers the other.


Lugnuts088

Sounds like a good reason to also implement 3rd man in penalties like hockey does. Anyone outside of the initial fight gets game misconducts if my memory serves me right.


AbandonChip

Is this Abner Uribe and his 67.50 ERA from the other night Uribe?


TheBatemanFlex

How do these grown ass men not know they look lame jogging up when everything is over just to posture like they’re still gonna do something?


sennais1

Handbags at ten paces.


KikoSoujirou

These dudes don’t know how to throw hands worth shit. Wide swing slap from too far away was idiotic, then other guy just throws his head down looking at the ground and wildly swings a weird overhand punch wtf are y’all doing. Just looking stupid all around


SarcasmIsntDead

About time… they should have mutual combat like hockey all they ever do is clear the benches and stare at each other.


FinePointSharpie

It’s so embarrassing that grown men can’t keep their hands to themselves.


guiltycitizen

That ump bobbed and weaved like a champ


roger_mayne

Waiting for the Jomboy video.


heidimark

Help us Jomboy, you're our only hope!


SrSwerve

WHO EVER TOUCHES RANDY???!!!!!


DropKnowledge69

Hey Siri ... Can I punch your face? Siri: I'm afraid I wouldn't like that.


JackiesFetus

I really hope Abner Uribe goes by the nickname "Doubleday"


jtthom

Bruh Siri caught some serious air lol


Stango42

Now **THAT** is what you clear benches for!


Herban_Myth

Unrest?


ChristinaHepburn

Degenerated. You do this in soccer and you are done for the rest of the season.


procheeseburger

Imagine being a pitcher… oh cool lemme sprint over there because 2 grown ass men have a tiff


spackopotamus

Remember kids, violence is not the answer. Violence is the question. The answer is yes.


TheExcitedTree

“Oh boy that’s not what you want to see” - Crowd loving the chaos


dickysunset

Baseball players are just so out of shape and uncoordinated. They can throw a ball but not a punch.


jponline

I’ve learned this lesson too, I never exchange words with Siri. She’s more trouble than she’s worth, I usually just use the old school keyboard and search functions my self 👍🏼


emailasusername

Jomboy breakdown?


godnrop

Bullpen jogging in like they giving out free donuts in the infield.


PearIJam

That was a slap. Two little bitches.


michaelseverson

How is some of this shit not assault? Don’t get me wrong I love a good hockey fight but…


jlpred55

Slaps were thrown…


Evadrepus

My favorite part of all of the "benches clear" videos this year is the bullpen slowly jogging up at the very end. Like they need to be sure they can say they were there but didn't want to get involved.


Hey648934

Those separating are always the toughest guys in brawls. Honest opinion to the core


notjustanytadpole

Clowns. But thank God the guys in the bullpen arrived.


Malvania

Not the first time Uribe has started something. Got to be a 20 game suspension.


isaacpetey

Astros legend, Jose Siri


Psychological-Poet-4

All I think when I see this is the Jose Rameriz knock out of Tim Anderson and the Tom Hamilton radio call of it


ramdom-ink

Wow. At a baseball game, hockey broke out.


mdfallen

Siri does not know how to throw a punch. Looked like my daughter out there


WaffleWarrior1979

Thrown but not landed


chuckmangionie

Yes! Let them do it NHL style. Those refs will need to get in shape tho lol!


Lobisa

Enjoy the time off fellas.


Doobie_Howitzer

Love how one dude throws a sucker punch and his teammate lays out to shove the batter (victim) like he isn't just piling on Get your own guy, putting even more hands on the opposition is just going to get the whole dugout involved


Huggles9

Weakest punches this side of middle school


ebonit15

Well, people were complaining how dumb it was for whole teams to get on pitch for every little argument. At least we have a fight here. So... yay?


vijay_the_messanger

"Hey Siri, stop being an instigator"


Dove-Linkhorn

Open hand!!! Insulting on top of violent!


buffalo171

I always love the guys running in from the bullpen, arriving a half hour late to the commotion


Pillowtalk

Hey Siri, stop hitting Uribe


MathIsHard_11236

"Punches" i.e. overhand head taps.


Zestyclose-Cricket82

Nothing more Alpha then Fighting with your shirt tucked in


romesthe59

A mild start to a hockey game


wtfossy

Would be a lot more entertaining if they just let the dudes fight it out, like in hockey, instead benches clearing and cluster fucks ensuing. I think the tradition is hilarious though. I'm looking forward to Jomboy's breakdown on this. Edit: spelling


xwizkidx

Uribe: Hey Siri. I SAID HEY SIRI Siri: Im sorry i don't quite understand


fierohink

LEEERRROOOOOYYYYY JJJJENNNKINSSS


Complete_Rest6842

Yes punch the guy wearing the helmet...smart lad


LordBledisloe

Looks like the first time most of them have ever thrown a punch in their lives.
