The hockey season is slowly coming to an end, and with fans patiently waiting for the start of next season, we saw a hockey like brawl in baseball recently.
While baseball isn't known to be a sport for violence like hockey, one recent post on X has brought back memories of a ridiculous brawl in the Venezuelan Baseball League that is reminiscent of some of the best hockey fights we've ever seen.
NEVER in my life have I seen a brawl like this 😳
Hockey season in North America is all but over given the Stanley Cup Finals are underway, so while it may not be the type of fight we've all come to know and love on the ice, it was certainly of the same caliber of fight. With fighting being slowly phased out of hockey, it's unclear how many chaotic fights and brawls we will see in the NHL and other professional leagues, and given the violence of this situation, it's easy to see why.
