VIDEO: Mariners/Rangers bench-clearing brawl

—

Richie Sexson’s decision to charge the mound on this “purpose” pitch from Kason Gabbard pretty much highlights his knowledge of the strike zone. Rangers’ announcer Tom Grieve might have dropped the quote of the year: “That is a gutless, 6-foot-7, .200-hitting, formerly good player.”
