Three years later Carp and Papi are long gone, and Price is the ace of the Red Sox staff. Baseball is weird.

[Richard-bygm]

It's always fun to see a good baseball brawl.

[rubencanales]

Why the hell is sean rodriguez mad? I guess it could be he's a nobody.

[mr.splashteen]

Can't hate Ortiz for backing his teammate.

[Idrillz]

Why is Sean Rodriguez always acting tough ?

[PhilRose]

My fav is the TB clown who slaps a dudes hands away, "Don't touch me!" then takes 3 giant steps backwards while chirping. Way to show him bro. So much bravery. Much wow.

[jamesjankowski]

Im impressed how lovullo keeped his Composure for the most part

[josephcockburn]

I just watched Sean Rodriguez when playing for the Pirates gets into an argument when he had nothing to do with it and nothing was done to him.

[matthewskaggs]

LOVE HOW SHAWN RODREGIZ IS BEING A BADASS BEHIND EVERYONE

[thumbhais]

Still a better fight than Floyd vs Manny

[johnjoseph]

typical Sean Rodriguez yelling from behind a lot of teamates

[coolguy]

Can't deny this looked a bit classless, and just after Ortiz was hit too.

[robertredmond]

David price just signed with the red sox lol. crazy

[jcbbb]

I've had more enjoyment from this one video then my whole life's worth of baseball watching.

[tomg]

Also everyone is hating on David Ortiz for backing his teammate

[djtrixen]

Lovullo argues like an Italian... with his hands!

Jeff Kellogg is the oldest umpire of this crew. And man all those other umpires are very young back than

[Trevaspo]

I'm glad there's professionalism...

[Sliqhs]

The umpires didn't do their jobs. Price hit ortiz, nothing happened, some rays batter got hit, warnings issued (according to the rulebook, that means that the next pitcher to hit a batter shall be ejected from the game.). Later, Brandon workman thre well behind longoria, when rain was POURING DOWN (and for those who had never thrown a baseball, throwing, no, pitching with a wet baseball is VERY difficult. The ball WILL slip out of your hand), workman is ejected. Although he did not hit the batter, and it occured four innings after the origional mess. These umpires were obviously lacking experience.

[KHayes]

Its too bad both the Sox and Rays suck. With all the tension between the two teams, they'd make for a perfect ALCS like the Yankees/Sox in 2003.
