First things first, NESN's SportsDesk brilliantly opened its Red Sox recap this morning with this gorgeous bit, a rollickin' montage of some past Sox-Rays donnybrooks: Here's the brawl itself. The weirdest thing comes at around :29--seeing someone wearing the number 7 just standing on the periphery of a brawl. That's how you know Trot Nixon has left the building. If the Dirt Dog was still ...

... rebukes Youk for expecting more ass-kicking out of Manny and wonders what else would have gone down if Julian “Batshit” Tavarez were still with the team. Surviving Grady misses another former Red Sox player known to enjoy a good fight: Trot “the original dirt dog” Nixon. “Seeing someone [JD Drew] wearing the number 7 just standing on the periphery of a brawl,” they muse. “That’s how you know Trot Nixon has left the building.” ...

Manny & Youk fight in dugout
boston.com 6/6/2008 — NESN caught footage of Kevin Youkilis and Manny Ramirez getting all rough & tumble in the dugout during the Red Sox/Rays game tonight. No word yet on what it was about.
Earlier in the game, Coco charged the mound & took some swings at Rays' pitcher Shields. Manny showed up late to the brawl, maybe that's what it's about. Who knows.
And Now The Red Sox Broadcasters Are Fighting
soxanddawgs.com 6/6/2008 — I guess after seeing the brawl that happened between Coco Crisp and James Shields and the scuffle in the dugout between Manny Ramirez and Kevin Youkilis, Boston Red Sox television broadcasters Don Orsillo and Jerry Remy had a fight of their own between the top of the 5th and bottom of the 5th during tonight’s game.

My Pinstripes
"I was at a boxing match last night and a hockey game broke out". An oldie, but goodie. Last night a brawl broke out at the Rays-Red Sox baseball game. Sox centerfielder Coco Crisp became a marked man after his questionableslide into 2nd Baseman Aki Iwamura (yeah the same guy Shelley Duncan spiked) the night before (Crisp said it was in retaliation for Jason Bartlett blocking the bag earlier ...

MLB - Sports Rumors - Yahoo! Sports
One out into the top of the fourth inning, Kevin Youkilis jogged out to right field. The Red Sox' third center fielder of the game, J.D. Drew , had taken his position. There had been one swollen and reddened nose ( Coco Crisp 's), three ejections, and Chris Carter 's major league debut. Oh, and soon after, Manny Ramírez and Youkilis had to be separated in the dugout. It was just ...

When James Shields swung and missed his haymaker yesterday during the Sawx/Rays brawl, Coco should’ve totally spun him around and gave him a springboard splash to the solar plexus. Then once Shields was down, Coco could’ve laid him on top of the Spanish Announcer’s table and dropped the big ‘bow. But, alas…it was Coco Crisp not Koko B. Ware.
Then three ...

HER RAYS!
Rock’em Sox’em Rays!
What the hell? We knew there might be some drama in Boston tonight, but I didn’t expect a good old fashion brawl.
Was Crispy really surprised when he got hit by that pitch? Cause the ESPN announcers from the night before pretty much told him to expect one in the numbers. It hit him in the leg. What is his problem? Roid Rage? Seriously he f*cked ...

BOSTON -- It will be little noted, or long remembered -- not with another brawl between the teams (you can read about it and see what happened ), another mini-brawl just among the Sox , a wrist injury to Jacoby Ellsbury and a potential hamstring injury to Manny Ramirez (which may result in Brandon Moss coming back to Boston ) -- but the Red Sox completed a three-game sweep of the Rays with a ...
