Eleven Sports Taiwan
A bench-clearing melee is NOT good social distancing — but these guys couldn’t care less!
Two teams in the Chinese Pro Baseball League (based in Taiwan) nearly came to blows Sunday after a pitcher fired a laser into an opposing player’s ass!!
Ex-Houston Astros pitcher Henry Sosa was on the mound for the Fubon Guardians when up came Rakuten Monkeys infielder Kuo Yen-Wen.
Long story short, Sosa has a CANNON for an arm — and was throwing HARD and inside at Yen-Wen … almost like he was trying to send a message.
Finally after 3 VERY close calls, Sosa drilled Yen-Wen right in the ass … AND THE BENCHES CLEARED!
Of course, Taiwan is dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic like everyone else in the world — they’ve banned fans from attending the game (cardboard cutouts instead!). And they’ve been strongly encouraging social distancing — but everything went out the window when Yen-Wen got hit.
There was some pushing and shoving (no crazy haymakers) — but eventually everyone returned to their dugouts without any serious injuries.
As for the game, the Monkeys got the last laugh — winning the game 3 to 1.
