The Houston Astros and Texas Rangers nearly got into a bench-clearing brawl after a beanball incident during the 8th inning of their Friday night championship game.<\/p>\n
The teams were going head-to-head in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series when Houston relief pitcher Bryan Abreu<\/strong> wound up and hurled a 98.9 mile-per-hour fastball, striking Rangers batter Adolis Garcia<\/strong> in his left arm.<\/p>\n Check out this video posted on X … Garcia looks furious as he pushes Houston catcher Mart\u00edn Maldonado<\/strong>, while the umpire gets between them.<\/p>\n Both teams then pour onto the field and run toward each other, gathering in one big heap near home plate.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The players start yelling and shoving one another, but the tense situation never escalates into a full-scale fight.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Still, Garcia continues to blow off steam as his teammates hold him back — and eventually escort him off Globe Life Field in Arlington, TX.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The umpires ejected three people: Abreu, Garcia and Astros manager Dusty Baker<\/strong>.<\/p>\n When the game resumed, the Astros went on to beat the Rangers 5-4. The Astros now hold a 3-2 lead in the series as they travel back to Houston for Game 6.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Behave yourselves guys!!<\/p>\n
