A Boston Red Sox minor leaguer sparked a brawl during a Double-A game in Maine this week by charging the mound and dropping an opposing pitcher with a right hook after getting beaned with a pitch.
Portland Sea Dogs first baseman Tyreque Reed, a 24-year-old prospect, charged Binghamton Rumble Ponies hurler Marcel Renteria on Thursday after taking a pitch off his hip in the third inning.
Reed did not appear agitated about being struck, and instead began jogging down to first base. But when a visibility upset Renteria began demonstrably gesturing towards home plate and yelling, Reed changed course, stepped over to the mound, and dropped the pitcher with a single right hook.
