He is my baseball grandpa, in that he can be extremely embarrassing, but I love him so much at the same time. As someone who follows the Yankees primarily through the At-Bat app and listens to part or all of around 100 games per year, he and Suzyn are a constant presence in my house, so anything with that kind of…

If it makes you feel any better, the Rays dugout was almost as vocal about the bad calls prior to this, so it was almost a race to see who was getting tossed first.

This is the MLB equivalent of a hockey fight.

The Mexico City game also had Ford logos on the sides of the helmets. It must be a part of the international series negotiations that they had to agree to expanded uniform advertisements.
