What Happened

In a heated matchup between the New York Mets and the St. Louis Cardinals, tensions boil over as the Mets get hit by a barrage of pitches, a common occurrence for the team. Pete Alonso, the Mets' star first baseman, is hit by a pitch, sparking a benches-clearing brawl. The incident begins when Mets outfielder Jd Davis is hit in the foot by a pitch from the Cardinals. Alonso, who has already been hit in the head twice earlier in the game, takes exception to the continued targeting of his teammates. When the next batter, Nolan Arenado of the Cardinals, steps up, the Mets' pitcher responds by throwing a pitch high and inside, provoking Arenado. Arenado charges the mound, shouting and gesturing at the pitcher, daring him to throw again. The Cardinals' catcher intervenes, but Arenado pushes him aside and continues his tirade. The benches and bullpens quickly empty, and a chaotic melee ensues. In the middle of the scuffle, Alonso is wrapped up by the Cardinals' first base coach, and Genesis Cabrera, a Cardinals pitcher, rips Alonso's jersey in an attempt to restrain him. Alonso, a massive, powerful player, struggles to break free, but the coach and Cabrera hold him back. As the dust settles, Alonso is seen walking around the field, visibly frustrated and confused. He expresses his displeasure with the way he was pulled from the pile, feeling it was a "cheap" move by the Cardinals' staff. Meanwhile, the Cardinals' Goldy, the team's star first baseman, calmly tightens his water bottle before angrily slamming it to the ground and joining the fray. The fans in the stands are in a frenzy, cheering on the brawl and capturing the chaos on their phones. Both Arenado and the mysterious "Stubby," a Cardinals coach or staff member, are ejected from the game, adding to the drama and intensity of the moment. In the end, the Mets and Cardinals engage in a fiery, physical confrontation, showcasing the high stakes and tensions that can arise in a heated rivalry between two competitive baseball teams.

the new york mets get hit by a ton of

pitches they lead the league in getting

hit by pitches it's who they are it's

their identity only they don't like it

at all this breakdown is brought to you

by keeps you're not gonna like if you go

bald and you could have prevented it by

going to keeps last year the mets were

third in the nl at getting hit and then

they brought over canna and martay and

some other players that get hit all the

time so we tried to warn you on talking

baseball be ready this team's gonna get

hit by pitches so the mets should be

climbing up the nl rankings in total hit

by pitches the mets are going to kill

hit by pitch game look for some fights

yeah some fights

some fights and you're right because a

lot of the hit by pitches are just kind

of their arms sticking out or their toes

sticking out but some of them have been

really

scary like that one to the head and that

one to the head

and that one to the head

and then this one from the cardinals to

the head elanja's been hitting the head

twice and that is scary he gets up and

jogs and then after alonzo gets hit they

hit jd davis in the foot just a direct

shot to the foot and the mets are sick

and tired of this they don't like it

they're getting hurt they're getting hit

at a crazy rate

they don't enjoy it they want out jd

davis out the game so the next inning

after davis gets hit maybe this is on

purpose maybe it's just a slip aronado

the batter for the cardinals he

definitely i think

he's prepared to get thrown at he's like

hey

we've hit a couple there guys they're

gonna hit me so the first pitch is high

and inside now it's not incredibly high

it's not incredibly inside but aronado

isn't a fan he's gonna bounce over he's

gonna look at the pitcher kind of nod

look at him like okay all right all

right hey my guy hey do it again

hey do it again

actor like an acting coach like come on

me everything you got he's furious

absolutely tosses the catcher just a bad

afternoon badass just nope you're over

there you over there uh here's this i

think it's funny because the pitcher

didn't hear like half of that you can

see him yelling nod yeah do it again the

pitcher's not even looking not and not

even looking now he's kind of like oh

what what are you yelling

what are you yelling and then the

catcher is just going to get tossed to

the side now here's how all the dugouts

empties this is the mats kind of casual

here's the bullpen of the mats a long

run in by them the bullpen of the

cardinals is hilarious all the relievers

run down the ramp and it's just an

absolute log jam at the end they can't

get out they can't open the door it's

just like a stampede but meanwhile

giovano gallegos is like i'll just go

over the wall dude see you guys later

reverse that he's on the fence and this

guy who's at the end of the line looks

over he's like oh [ __ ]

where'd he go yep i'm off see you guys

later enjoy getting stuck at the door

fixes his hat readies himself for battle

now the cardinals bench you got goldie

tightening the water bottle before he

absolutely slams it to the ground and

then he's off to the races pretty

thoughtful of him to tighten that first

and now this is the main story you got

pete alonso and the first base coach for

the cardinals this is where all the

action happens in the pile everything

else is just kind of what you would

expect it to be but

you can see the coach wraps them up and

he's just wrapping alonso up everyone

else is just kind of doing the thing

pushing moving and then you have genesis

cabrera rip alonzo's jersey and they

just get him out of the pile look at

this a two-man wrecking crew just pull

alonzo right out of the pile

cabrera and the coach alonso stands up

and he's still going after him keeping

him on the perimeter finally alonzo's
