SC-Christy, Chapter 40 BTS (Braves-Padres brawl)
🕑 Added 2020-03-20 18:00:48 +0000 UTCI'm not a baseball fan, so I didn't know anything about the huge brawl between the Atlanta Braves and the San Diego Padres in 1984. I learned about it when I was doing my research (yeah, I'm pretty thorough).
Anyway, here's a great video with lots of explanation and background. The brawl was a big deal at the time, and even today. So I had to include it in the story, especially since Trip is such a baseball fan.
Hope you enjoy.

Thank you.
Reminds me of the saying, I went to the fights and a hockey game broke out...

No way you can tell me that shirtless crazyeyes wasnt coked up.

Exactly! The commentator even reminds me of the high school ice hockey all-stars hair video guy. Google and you'll see.

So baseball became like hockey for a moment.

Exactly! I watched a couple of other videos, but decided to post this one because it was actually interesting, even to a non-baseball fan.
Nick Scipio
LOL, exactly. One of the comments* on the video is something like, "I went to WWE smackdown and a baseball game broke out." * Yeah, yeah, I know... <em>never</em> read the comments, but this time was different.

I know, right! I normally couldn't care less about baseball, but the color commentary really pulls you in.
Never knew about this. That was great. The guy narrating the video did a really good job making it interesting throughout.
I am generally uninterested in baseball or pro wrestling, but this crossover sport is super compelling!
I rolled my eyes and was all set to skip this post because, really, who has time for 1984 baseball trivia? But then I hit play and I couldn't stop watching. Great video indeed! It made my day. Thanks for posting :-)
That’s pretty awesome vid Nick thanks for sharing. Love to color commentary on it too. Made me laugh.
