Brouhaha at Dodger Stadium
These Dodgers are M-A-D!!!
Our own Kevin Baxter describes the fight:
With both teams struggling, it was only a matter of time before the frustration boiled over. That happened after Torrealba dropped the third strike when Kemp struck out to end the eighth. The Rockies catcher quickly retrieved the ball and as the two players' feet tangled, Torrealba tagged the Dodger outfielder. When Kemp took exception by pushing Torrealba, the catcher responded with a shove to the throat, igniting the fight.
"He kind of shoved me and I shoved him back. It was just out of frustration," said Kemp, who is probably facing a suspension. "It was really stupid. It was not a good decision on my part. But it happened and you've got just to deal with whatever it is that comes after that."
Crazy night at the ol' Ravine, hmmm? Good thing submitter Ross was there to capture the action! Thanks, Ross!
