ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The benches cleared in the eighth inning of the Los Angeles Angels' 8-5 win over the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night, and even though no punches were thrown, emotions ran high after the game.
Rangers reliever Shawn Armstrong hit Zach Neto and Mike Trout with consecutive pitches to load the bases, prompting Angels interim manager Ray Montgomery to walk toward the plate, wave his arms and yell at Texas manager Bruce Bochy.
"I just heard the yelling, and that was enough," Bochy said.
