The Reds and Pirates had a violent bench-clearing brawl that began in such wild fashion

The Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburgh Pirates got into another bench-clearing brawl on Tuesday night and the way this one started was like nothing I’ve ever seen before.

I mean, it was so darn awesome.

These two teams have had some bad blood dating back to their wild fight in April.

But that fight has nothing on this one, which happened 25 minutes after Yasiel Puig, who was very active in the fight and will be suspended, got traded to the Indians for pitcher Trevor Bauer.

Reds pitcher Amir Garrett had words with the Pirates’ bench during a mound visit and then he just decided to take matters into his own hands and ran at the bench and tried to fight everyone:

How insane was all of that?
