Another wacky week of baseball. The ever-annoying Nyjer Morgan decided to slam into the Marlins catcher one too many times.
After being thrown at, Morgan decided to charge the mound and MLB's second brawl of the season occurred.
More violent than Reds vs. Cardinals, Morgan got in a few head shots before getting knocked down by the entire Marlins team.
Aroldis Chapman of the Reds made his major league debut this week. He arrived in a blaze of glory, hitting 103 on the radar gun multiple times.
He already owns the two fastest pitches in MLB since '06. He has thrown three scoreless innings in a middle relief role. It will be interesting to watch how Chapman will be used down the stretch.
In other news, the Padres are in the midst of a predictable collapse, losers of 10 in a row.
The Yankees continue to stomp the AL while the Rays follow their lead. the Reds are still rolling as the Cardinals fade to black.
The Phillies are breathing down the Braves neck and the NL Wild Card is still up for grabs.
The '10 baseball season has been fun, but the stretch run should provide even more excitement.
