Angels' Jorge Soler Charges Mound, Tackled by Braves Manager in Brawl
Both players were ejected after Soler charged the mound, and Atlanta manager Walt Weiss helped tackle him as benches cleared.
- Atlanta Braves pitcher Reynaldo Lopez and Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Jorge Soler were ejected Tuesday night after a benches-clearing brawl in Anaheim during the fifth inning.
- Tension escalated after Soler homered off Lopez in the first inning, then was hit by a pitch from him in the third; a high fastball in the fifth prompted Soler to charge the mound.
- Both players exchanged punches before teammates intervened; Braves manager Walt Weiss tackled the 6-feet-4, 235-pound Soler to the ground during the melee.
- First base umpire Vic Carapazza ejected both players from the game; Major League Baseball officials may hand down further discipline for the incident.
