Atlanta Braves pitcher Reynaldo López and Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Jorge Soler were ejected from a Major League Baseball game Tuesday night following an on-field brawl.

The fight broke out in the fifth inning when López threw a high-and-inside wild pitch that narrowly missed Soler's head, leading Soler to charge the mound. Earlier in the game, Soler had hit a home run off López, and López later hit Soler with a 96 mph fastball.
