Here is the scenario: The score is tied, it is the 9th inning, the mood is tense. The pitcher throws a bean ball, the batter is officially walked, but he chooses to walk up to the mound and punch the pitcher out for beaning him with the pitch.... Next thing you know the whole field is erupting with players running in from the outfield and the dugouts and piling up on the mound... What a show... It's even more fun than watching the game...

Yeah I like them and used to come home at 6 am and watch
Sportscenter and if there was a good fight I would tape it and
watch it over and over.
Nolan Ryan had one of the best when Robin Ventura charged the mound and Ryan got him in a headlock and kept hitting him Hockey Style.

Normally nothing happens. The best I saw was Nolan Ryan when a batter chrarged the mound at him. Nolan got the guy in a headlock and just started batingv the tar out of him. Then there was the time Juan Marichal hit John Roseboro over the head with a bat and knocked him out. But normally its just people arguing.
Oh yes and the time someone decked a 70 plus year old Don Zimmer.

The batter in your senario would be HBP not a walk. But anyway, I agree fights are fun to watch. Baseball fights tend to be boring. Like 90% of the "fights" benches empty and they stare at each other or at most they start hugging on the pitchers mound.
Once in a while you do get a good one though. Like Nolan Ryan beating up Robin Ventura, that one was classic.

Baseball players don't fight. They start jawing at each other and acting like they're going to fight but it's all for show. They know that their buddys are going to break it up before it gets out of hand. Now Hockey...when they start throwing punches, everyone backs off for a bit and lets them go at it. That would be cool if they did that in baseball. Just let the batter and pitcher throw punches for awhile. That might stop some on the intentional hit batters. The pitchers would know that the hitter just might open a can of woopass on him.

personally i think some mound charging is good for the game. not necessarily brutal punches landed on someones nose or mouth but a little pushing and tackling here and there definatly adds some entertainment value to the sport. now, having said that I don't like to see 95 mph fastballs thrown at someones head either. if a pitcher is going to do it he needs to take some speed off and just aim for that ***.

Once in a while maybe, but if my team is playing the last thing I want to see happen is for one of my players getting hit and possibly getting hurt then having the whole team out on the field and your 5 million a year players getting hurt in a pile up.

the appropriate baseball combat of all time- on the subject of Nolan Ryan kicking the residing $hit out of Robin Ventura- became into Kyle Farnsworth's finished and utter destruction of then Royals pitcher Jeremy Affeldt. in this interest between Kansas city and Detroit, somebody on Detroit gets plunked, and a huge brawl starts up. So on an identical time as purely about all those anybody is struggling with, Kyle Farnsworth runs each and each of ways out from the bullpen, jukes this guy whos attempting to dam him from starting to be a member of in, selections Affeldt up over his head, slams him to the floor, and then rocks him in the face. not basically did the combat give up, the finished stadium went silent as anybody regarded at Jeremy Affeldt get taken away on a stretcher. I certainly have by no potential seen this form of speedy annihilation, even in activities like UFC.

Very rarely would you ever see a brawl in a tie game in the ninth inning. These guys get paid to win ballgames, it's not the WWE. Brawls usualy happen early in games or in blow outs, not in tight contests late in ball games.

Fights are always fun to watch but I would rather see a coach have a temper tantrum over a borderline pitch.

Dont forget Varitek and Rodriquez from July 2004. The picture of Teks glove in Rodriquez' face is priceless!
