Video emerges of Puig's reported bar skirmish

Back in November, Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig sustained relatively minor injuries in a fight with a bouncer in Miami. The injuries were described as a "swollen left eye" and "minor bumps and bruises."

The incident reportedly happened when the bouncer asked Puig to leave the premises after he got into an argument with his sister. CBS Sports MLB Insider Jon Heyman reported Friday the incident may not have been as bad as it initially sounded. From Heyman:

Word from someone briefed on the encounter is that Puig originally tried to play peacemaker between his sister and her boyfriend, but was asked to leave after getting a bit loud.
