Video of Red Sox Rays Brawl & Manny Ramirez Kevin Youkilis Argument

Looks like Youkilis questioned Manny on either not playing in the outfield or not doing enough in the brawl and Manny reacted and they had to be seperated.Coco charging the mound started the night before with the Rays Bartlett using his knee when Coco tried to steal, then Coco took out Iwamura on a hard slide, then the Rays manager had a shouting match with Coco during a visit to the mound. James Shields hitting Crisp capped it off and Gomes jumping on the pile throwing haymakers will keep the flame lit until these teams meet again.

Not good :\

I just read that Youk was supposed to have a day off (rather than sitting him because he doesn't hit Shields well (like Coco does! HEHE)) He probably wasn't thrilled at having to use his day off to play in left field.

Its funny they can't beat up the Devils Rays after retaliation from a bush league slide, so they decided to fight with the weakest people on the field -themselves.

the devil rays are better than the yankees lol they are men. what the you mean the cant beat up the devil rays BIGAZZ.

Manny fights better with his own teammates than he does defending them. He was one of the last one's to the mound! Manny being Manny...

I would bet that Youkilis was telling Manny that he needs to quit standing at home plate and watching his home runs

I would have liked to have seen Coco one on one with all the Rays that took shots at him when he was on the ground. Carl Crawford pulls on his cornrows. Coco has seventeen knockouts in seventeen amateur fights. I don't think it was a fluke that Shields missed Coco with that punch.

Wouldn't we all like to tell him that...
Bottom line is this: Coco is out of line starting this thing. The Sox had just taken the lead in the East, and being reminded of the pitiful franchise they play for should have been punishment enough for the Rays. That being said, once the fight began, Coco was the only one actually fighting, as opposed to pulling hair and scratching like a kitten. In addition, someone please explain to me how Jonny Gomes always gets involved in these fights. He wasn't even nearby and he's the one who thinks he's Mr. T out there. Take a seat, Jonny, you still owe me big time from all the times I've defended you in my fantasy leagues and you've continued to hit like I did in little league, which is not at all.

You are all wrong. The real reason Manny and Youk got into it...

Youk has a temper and throws his bat and helmet around the dugout after bad at-bats. Manny is sick of it and finally said something igniting the feud. It apparently had nothing to do with the brawl, at least not directly. I'm sure the emotions from the brawl may have agitated Manny to have a more critcal reacton following another one of Youk's temper tantrums.

boo9radley ,
No, 'we all' wouldn't like to tell Manny that. I personally love when he does that. And I know lots of people who feel the same way. Actually, I'd like to tell Manny to stand there a little longer...quite a picture! lol..
