Benches cleared during the Yankees-Rays clash on Sunday after Randy Arozarena was hit by a pitch from Albert Abreu in the bottom of the eighth inning.
Arozarena took exception to the inside fastball from Abreu, nearly slamming his bat in frustration before turning to face the mound and attempt to approach the pitcher. He was held back by home plate umpire Adam Beck, but the outfielder continued to jaw at Abreu, who eventually began chirping back.
Both teams’ benches then cleared, at which point Arozarena was restrained by members of Tampa Bay's coaching staff and some of his Rays teammates.
