Blue Jays: Familiar face involved in CPBL empty stadium brawl

The CPBL has resumed its season play in light of the Coronavirus pandemic playing games in empty stadiums in Taiwan. Tensions boiled over in a recent contest between the Fubon Guardians and the Rakuten Monkeys and the benches cleared after repeated attempts to plunk Monkeys second baseman Kuo Yen-Wen.

Guardians pitcher Henry Sosa took the liberty of throwing inside fastballs at Yen-Wen three times before finally landing one in his back which triggered the benches to clear. The brawl was very tame compared to that of North American standards, however, at the 1:27 mark in the video I observed a familiar name in the middle of the melee.
