Reds manager David Bell returns to field for brawl with Pirates after earlier ejection
Is Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell's return to the field for a benches-clearing brawl after being ejected - for the eighth time this season - earlier in the same game unprecedented? Not quite, but it's apparently rare, and not even Earl Weaver, Billy Martin or Bobby Cox are known to have done it.
