Top 5 Fights in Red Sox History #2

PEDRO MARTINEZ vs. GERALD WILLIAMS



Number Two

Ok, for those of you who remember, this is when all the bad blood between the Red Sox and the Devil Rays began. It was the first inning and with his fourth pitch Pedro plunked Williams with a fastball up and in. Williams decided to take exception to this and charged the mound. When the brawl was all said and done with MLB handed down suspensions to 8 Devil Rays players and 0 Red Sox players. If you're wondering whay that is you would have to remember that the Devil Rays pitchers hit 3 Red Sox batters after the Pedro incident in the first inning. After missing Brian Daubach with two pitches that were obviously intended to bean him they still found a way to hit him twice before the night was over. I'm sure it was no coincidence that Daubach was the first Red Sox player to come to Pedro's aid as Williams charged the mound. You have to admit that Pedro always found a way to keep things interesting.
