Angels and Braves benches clear, a breakdown

13 hits and 22 at bats, four home runs,

591 batting average, 625 on base, 1.2

slugging. That's That's a lot. And this

is the first at bat and the first pitch.

And guess what? It's another home run on

just a nothing pitch. Nothing offspeed

pitch in the middle of the zone. It just

kind of hung there and Solair was like,

"Thanks, dude, because I hit you really

well." It goes right into this fan's

glove. You're never going to guess how

many high fives he gets after catching

this ball. Pause. Guess.

Did you guess over or under? Eight.

Well, let's see. One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight, uh, nine.

Gentle little kid. And then Yes.

Yes.

Great. Oh, does this count? I don't know

if that's a high five, but we'll count

it. Anyway, let's see if there's any

animosity here. Any yelling, any

showboating, any emotions? I got the

solo shot on both guys and no nothing

that you would think would lead to them

throwing punches at each other later in

the game. Just so hitting another home

run off of Lopez and Lopez kind of

taking his licks and being like, "Okay,

that stunk. I should have seen that

coming." He sure did. And we move on to

the second at bat and there's two outs.

There's a runner in scoring position.

The first pitch is going to be a

breaking ball on the inside and then a

breaking ball on the outside and then a

fast ball up and in. Really perfect

pitch. Now they try to get him swinging

away and they try to go back up and in

and hit him. You can see by his

reaction. I don't think that's on

purpose. And so is like oh that hurts.

He's like

damn I had him two strikes. Runner in

scoring position and he had him two

strikes. I think he was trying to throw

that up and in fast ball again cuz

earlier in the at bat he hit the spot

perfectly. 96 on the corner after all

the slow stuff away. That's a good

sequence. He tried to go back to it

here, but it just ran on him and hit

Solair. I mean, I think he was trying to

do the the good one and not the bad one.

I don't think that was on purpose. But

if you're Solair, okay, I hit the crap

out of this guy and I just hit a home

run. He might not want to pitch to me

with first base open and he might just

hit me with this beautiful slow motion

right into the wrist. That's a dangerous

spot to get hit. Guys will break their

wrist. It got spun. He got spun. Manager

doesn't like it. Damn. Bummed out. His

wrist is hurting, but he's okay. Now, a

lot of people could say he hits home

runs off him. First base was open. You

just hit him. But he got him to two

strikes. I really think he was just

trying to make his pitch. Buckle up,

have some snacks, sniff a baseball

because the third at bat's coming up and

that's when things get good. Once again,

you've got a runner on base. Solair's

up. Lopez on the mound. The first pitch

is another fast ball that's way high.

Think he's trying to hit that same spot.

We've got a stolen base on the pass

ball. And Azie just isn't he funny. Look

at Alb's. He's like, "No, no, you're

out." Just joking, dog. And here's your

glove. It's a friendly game of baseball.

We're all pals and everyone gets along.

Meanwhile, Solair hasn't left the box.

And he's just staring at Lopez. just

staring him down like, "What's up, dude?

You good? Was that intentional? You

gonna hit me again? Don't like this?" He

says, "You okay? Wait, you okay? You

know, you all right?" And now I reached

out to my crack team of Spanish lipreers

and we cracked the code.

>> So, what that means is basically it was

on purpose. It was intentional. It was

an act of malice. But I think what's

happening here is that Lopez is saying

it almost as a rhetorical question. Like

what, dude? You think that was on

purpose? You think it was on purpose?

And what Solair hears is it was on

purpose. Because Solair says in his

postgame, he said, "I asked him if he

was okay and I did not like what he said

back to me, so I charged him." And what

Ronaldo Lopez said in his postgame was

it was a misunderstanding. I didn't mean

to hit him. So I think we got a case of

my cousin Vinnie. I shot the clerk going

on. Fue Malda Fo Malda. And then it's

on. So this is chapter one of the brawl

which we're calling punches thrown.

Right away it's on. And they square up.

Look at this. Like really squaring up.

Just eyeing each other, bouncing around.

He's got the ball in in one hand, the

glove in the other. We're going to get

one swing. Nothing to it. And then we

get the left and it clips the brim of

the hat to set up the right, but catcher

Jonahheim has that right hand blocked,

which stops the punch and kills the

momentum. And now Lopez has the free

shot with the ball in his hand. Comes

down on the helmet. Whoa. And then

connected again. So watch this. Ball in

hand. comes down side of the helmet.

Then his backhand swipe here, still with

the ball in his hand, knocks the helmet

straight off his head. See that?

Off of his head. And now he realizes, I

got to get rid of the glove. It's not as

helpful as this ball. Okay, second

chapter. Let's break it up. Umpire, he's

on his way and he decides, nah. And gets

out of here. Jonah comes in and he stops

one punch, but then eventually he's

like, nah, let's get out of here.

Shanuel and young thick Austin Riley are

in the mix. And then Austin Riley's on

the ground and then he's back up. We got

Watkins, the coach. Head on a swivel.

Just love him. Head on a swivel. Head on

a swivel. Who's coming? Who's going? I

got you. I got you. But the big hero

here is Walter Weiss, manager of the

Braves. Now he's going to run out and

he's going to ditch the hat cuz he knows

what's going on. I'm not going to get

the brim of this hat pushed into my

forehead. I just got to ditch this

thing. Let the hair flow in the breeze

and do what I do. Gets low, finds his

man, and brings him to the ground.

Unbelievable. Walt Weiss is somewhere

between 55 and 65 years old. I didn't

look it up. I could have. I'm going to

guess 58. And we'll put it on there. He

does taekwond do. He's a black belt. He

knows what's going on. He just finds his

guy. He ducks under his coach's arms.

You're not going to see me coming.

Soair. And then a form tackle straight

to the ground. And another coach lands

on top of Solair. So, he's just really

on the ground. Here's the behind the

scenes, the other angle of it. And we

got boom goes down. And then number 81,

that coach also gets on top. Just wild.

It's a perfect tackle. Now, they're

friends. And Solair was even like, I'm

not mad at him. He's been my coach. We

won a World Series together. He's just

trying to protect me. And yes, sometimes

that's how you got to protect people.

You got to take them down.

Let's go. Once again, here's another

angle of it. And here's a cartoon

drawing on a t-shirt. Wow. Now, let's go

to chapter 3, the aftermath. Right when

he goes to the ground, look at Lopez. He

kind of stops retreating and he's like,

"Oh, now I'm going to take my shot." And

then thinks a little better of it. And

PZA is like, "Hey, hey, hey. Saw you

thinking about that." Lopez didn't like

it. Did not like it. Trout comes in and

you're just reminded that Trout's big.

Like, he's a big dude. broad shoulders,

tall pulls him to the side. He's like,

"Chill out here. Stay here." He's still

got the ball in his hand, which I find I

don't know, just that's a firm grip.

That thing to still be in his hands that

entire time. So, he's on the sideline.

But chapter next chapter, the bullpens

come out and we got this guy and I think

we need to tell him, "You don't need to

charge, man. You're not needed here.

This is this is dangerous for you.

You're getting lapped by everyone. By

the time you get there, he's going to

turn like let's tell that guy he's good.

Next chapter, Weiss is still with

Solair. They're breaking it up. He's got

Braves all around him because he was on

the Braves. They're all friends. Look at

Azie behind him giving a little massage

like, "You're good, man. Why you so

upset? You okay? Did he hit you with

that ball? Hey, you're fine. Get out of

here. Nice home run." So, he leaves. So,

the two main people are on the sidelines

and no one else really got involved

besides manager Walt Dwice who like I

said is the hero. Now Lopez is on the

side and look at the girl behind him

eating her ice cream. Oh yeah, this is a

show. He gives his uh hand a little

suckle

because he's bleeding because he

actually missed when he swung at the

helmet and he's telling him he missed

him with the ball. Everyone thinks he

got him with the ball. missed him and he

hit the side of his thumb onto the the

ear flap, which is a bummer. See here,

the side of his hand actually clips the

side of the helmet. He didn't get him

square with the ball. Bam. And he kind

of cut himself on the hand. Still crazy.

The umpires get together and they're

like, "What do you guys think? Do you

think we should maybe eject the two guys

who fought and threw punches at each

other?" And they were like, "I think

so." Yeah. Both the pitcher and the

batter are being depicted for FIGHTING

AND BOTH CLUBS ARE NOW WARNED for the

rest of the game.

>> I think I agree with it. I think I agree

with it. But there's someone that

doesn't and his name is the hero Walt

Weiss. Vic. Vic. Why? Why? Why is Lopez

ejected? Who? Lopez. Uh pitcher. All

right. Well, what we do is we got to

look at where they are. So then if he's

on the mound, that matters. But he comes

off the mound, Walt. No, he backed up.

He backed up, Vic. Uh, no. No, Walt, if

you can say that. He completely backed

up. He didn't go toward him. Ah, no way.

What are you talking about?

Well, that's the end of that. New

pitcher has to come in and a new batter

has to come in and finish the at bat,

which is 1 and0. And then he swung at

that. And then he swung at that and then

he swung at that. I don't think he was

ready to come in the game. Pitcher seems

like he was warmed up. That's the end of

this saga. Thank you very much for

tuning in. As I recorded this, so Lair

hit a home run in the next game. As I

was editing it, they announced the

suspensions. Seven games each. Walter

Weiss awarded hero of the night award by

me. I made that up.
