  1. It should be like hockey, if a pitcher hits a batter, the batter gets to choose to he wants a 30 second fight with the pitcher.

  2. I looked up the game where Wells faced Linton in 99. I see in the play by play wells hit belle but not where linton hit anyone. I also see where Belle stole 2nd on Wells. Then his next AB Wells hits him then he steals 2nd and 3rd 😂

  3. When David Lowe used to dig in high school, he would have a large group of angels watching him play. My uncle was one of them. At the time he was the president of the San Diego chapter

  4. Albert Belle was crazy but in all that crazy was also a scary ass looking motherf*cker you knew you didnt want to mess with

  5. Lol this is the stuff I like seeing and learning. Just watched something that should be aired anywhere. Social media is destroying human beings.

  6. So I looked it up, and this game took place on 4-17-1999. The box score shows only one HBP for the entire game. Wells hitting Belle. I checked to see if I could find any video to see if Linton was knocking hitters down but couldn’t find any. One thing for sure is Linton didn’t hit anyone that game.

  7. Lol great story. Tell some stories about you partying in Baltimore when you pitched for NY , heard some wild stuff lol

  8. Linton didn't actually hit a batter (he brushed back Delgado after a Shawn Green HR) and Albert Belle was on third when the inning ended (no one after him grounded into a double play).
