This is one of those unwritten rules in baseball that is truly dumb and takes the fun out of the game.
Former MLB All-Star Asdrubal Cabrera started a massive brawl during a Venezuelan Professional Baseball League game between the Caribes de Anzoategui and Tiburones de La Guaira after punching an opponent because he begna pimping a homerun that was hit off his pitcher teammate.
The 37-year-old took exception to Carlos Castro flipping a bat following his third home run of the game.
Over his 15-year MLB career, he made two All-Star Game appearances and won the 2019 World Series with the Washington Nationals.
Cabrera hasn’t appeared in the majors since 2021. Through 110 games in 2021, Cabrera batted .230 with a .313 On Base Percentage, .678 OPS, seven home runs and 42 RBI.
The World Series champion and two-time All-Star played for the Cleveland Indians, Washington Nationals, Tampa Bay Rays, New York Mets, Philadelphia Phillies, Texas Rangers, Arizona Diamondbacks and Cincinnati Reds.
