Why am I not surprised to see Puig inserting himself into this. He has a history of fighting, and I guarantee Puig will be Booed when the Reds play the Giants next month; we still remember him dusting it up with Giants catcher, Hundley. Hell, Hundley was traded to the Oakland A's this year and the A's have a three game interleague series with the Reds right after they play the Giants, so I'm pretty sure the A's fans will continue the Booing. If David Bell was smart, he'd just leave Puig at home.

Archer was allowed to remain in the contest following the altercation (Bell was right, Archer should have been ejected), and Pittsburgh went on to defeat the Reds after Cincinnati held a 3-2 lead at the time.

MLB needs to fine or suspend every player who left the dugout.

This ain't Little League. These guys are supposed to be professionals. They should be required to act like it.
