Anderson swung first, grabbed José first, and then got clobbered by one punch. lmaoo

[@foodforfighting4724]

Hate Tim Anderson but people gotta chill with the comments . He got knocked down by a luck horribly thrown punch and got right back up . Jose Ramirez is better player by far but that punch gets landed 1/100000 times

[@Mr.DerekReese]

He did get back up, sure... But I've yet to see him take one sturdy step since 😵💥🤛

[@adamgonzales4188]

And then got carried off by his teammate like a kid throwing a hissy fit

[@plodderable]

Ramirez started it with his big mouth. Andersons bad rep cannot be a justification. Anderson should have let it go. No karma here. Managers should be ashamed for continuation. It’s a ball game for entertainment. Wonder why issues arise between fans. Lousy example these pampered millionaires with ridiculous ego’s

[@samuelgarcia79]

2:04 "Just how karma is, karma ends up finding his way to Tim Anderson's face." 🤣 This is actually brilliant prose dude! I haven't laughed this hard in a good long time...........

Imagined if that haymaker right hander by Jram landed super solid & the correct way??? Lol. He fucks around & goes to sleep 😴 💤 for a good 2-3 mins real talk yo 💯💯💯🤣🤣🤣

[@JoeShmoe102]

Hey great video! Couple of quick bits of context I thought I'd add: First, on top of TA's general reputation, he also made a pretty dirty play the night before when he pushed the hand of one of Cleveland's base runners off of second base when applying a tag. By all accounts, the runner should have been called safe, and initially he was, but the call actually got overturned, so tensions were already pretty high going into this game. And not just that, iirc, Anderson was also talking smack to that base runner, who's a rookie, clearly to try to get in his head and shake his confidence, which Jose Ramirez went on record to tell TA not to do that, since they're all players trying to make a living and feed their families (the rookie in quesiton, Rocchio, has gone up and down between the majors and minors, and is on shaky ground as to whether or not he'll stick in the bigs). So JRam was also sticking up for his teammate. Also, about Naylor: there are actually two Naylors on the Guardians. Josh Naylor, the one you're thinking of, who's gone ballistic against the White Sox before, is currently on the injured list, hence why he's not more active in the fight. The Naylor you saw in this clip is his brother Bo, who typically seems to be a bit more chill. [EDIT: my mistake, that was Josh Naylor] Also for what it's worth, the last guy you saw with the teal dreads is Cleveland's closer, Emmanuel Clase. Don't know if that matters or not, I just figured I'd point that out. Again, great vid!

[@nickolastaliaferro8938]

Isn't Josh Naylor in the black hoodie somewhat standing over TA?

[@OldRoy]

2:32 That's Josh Naylor. First one there to help Jose, but Anderson already on the ground.

[@trinistar1930]

Also Tim has a record of playing dirty and hitting people on the head with his mits, which is considered a career ender and that should have removed him from baseball overall but nope he still there and well now he got karma .

[@Ryan-fo5lx]

What's more embarrassing getting punched and knocked down, or carried off the field like a rag doll by a teammate? I would definitely have words with teammate.

He looked off balance already lol it was definitely a lucky punch but a connect is a connect lol. Props to them dropping gloves.

[@gwencrawford737]

It didn't have to be a hard punch. It caught him right on the chin just right enough to rattle his brain box good. 😂 Couldn't have happened to a nicer idiot. :)

[@ehoffman2260]

I’ve seen this a couple of other places and I really didn’t think the punch hit him that square and he went down because he was going backwards and lost his balance, but your video shows he was staggering and his teammates were holding him up as they took him off the field. He definitely felt that shot.

Nice job! When TA got hit, it was like Fedor got him. He just dropped. I didn't see where he was staggering afterwords, so good catch finding that clip. Funny that was like a wild haymaker that hit him, didn't look like Jose was looking at TA at that time. Been a while since I've seen a brawl like this one!

Jamirez was mad because Tim Anderson applied the tag directly to his head . This explains why Jose Ramirez points to the head of Tim Anderson when he gets up. Watch the location of the tag closely

[@Justinlearns]

Even if Tim did it intentionally it's a bang bang play. Get up tell Tim imma run through that tag next time then play ball. But luckily things didn't go so cordially lol

[@loganbeatty5589]

No he didn't the tag was to his arm

[@johnnytyler5685]

@@loganbeatty5589 Pay attention to Anderson's glove from the very beginning. It looks like the glove maybe swipes JRam across the face as he slides and his momentum takes him past the base and through Anderson's legs. It seems like it was definitely an accident/unintentional, but I'm betting that's what started it. All JRam knew is that he got hit in the face, and with Anderson's reputation PLUS what happened last night (Anderson forced a runner's hand off the base, the ump called him safe, the disgusting White Sox manager challenged the call like a little girl and the runner was ruled out because NY claimed that while the runner WAS forced off, a force-off CANNOT be reviewed...so the only thing they could review was whether or not the tag was applied while the runner was off the base, and it TECHNICALLY was (because Anderson deliberately forced his hand off)), JRam was just going to assume that Anderson hit him in the face on purpose...hence the reaction.

I understand, He probably deserved it. But, this definitely calls into question what is acceptable and not on the field and how it sets an example for people and baseball players alike on how they can behave from now on. Frankly, it made them both look bad while it was entertaining. They both didn't set any good examples for anyone, even children.

[@DaveTheTurd]

I'm sure in the first inning, when the bases were loaded with no outs, and TA was on third, he was likely talking smack to JRam.... That's probably added to JRam's hostility....

[@tankertrucker9685]

I was at the game when it happened. José was primarily defending himself. The teams already dislike eachother. Tim Anderson made an illegal play, you are not supposed to stand in the way of the runner. The way he stood over the base and the running line was not a legal play. Alls he had to do was tag José. If you look at José stance he was in defense mode not attack mode.

[@MandrakeRoots]

I heard the ump say " lets' get it on!"

[@JewandGreek]

I don't know anything about Ramirez or Anderson, but there was absolutely nothing wrong with that tag. Ramirez overreacted. Maybe he was just looking for an excuse to go after Anderson, but that tag wasn't ample justification for his behavior.

[@R-L-I]

I agree, Anderson has a reputation and is not liked by many other players so yeah this most likely was used as an excuse to go after him but baseball wise, technically, it was nothing illegal about that play Anderson made.

[@sortofanoakyafterbirth3661]

That's not the whole story. Jose took exception to Tim shoving Cleveland rookie Rocchio's hand off of the base in Friday night's game. Tim apparently has a reputation of picking on rookies this way... it is cheap, because YOU KNOW lil Timmy would never do this to Josh Naylor or any other big dude who is well established and would stand up to it. Jose has a problem with picking on rookies because they might be afraid to defend themselves because they don't want to be suspended or lose any playing time that they desperately need. Jose never complains much. Never been ejected (until last night). It was even reported that lil Timmy also had to be told by an umpires to stop jawing at another rookie for Cleveland, Gabriel Arias. I'm sure there are other things that were boiling under the surface. It had little to do with this tag on that particular play.

Nolan Ryan beating Ventura was GOOD. Odor beating Bautista was BETTER. Ramirez KO Anderson is THE BEST.

[@amusement420]

Speaking of a hockey fight. The one thing Jose did after he ducked the punch was he pushed his left arm out that caused Anderson to miss then opened him up for Jose's round house punch. That's what hockey players attempt to do is push their hand out to grab the jersey of the throwing hand and keep their throwing hand away. Not saying Jose watched hockey fight tapes lol He did grow up and play in a tough Dominican Republic baseball league.

[@jaybingham3711]

[@marcusb.3038]

Tim Anderson was in a south paw stance, so clearly, he wasn’t skilled in boxing stance. As soon as Jose ducked his head down Tim should have responded with uppercuts, but he allowed Jose to get his left hand to feel Tim’s neck and chin to measure him then came with the overhand right hand haymaker strike to the jaw. He didn’t even hit him with his fist knuckles but the secondary finger knuckles. Smh. It could’ve been worse.

Jermaine, I don’t understand why Anderson has this bad boy attitude when his overall baseball skills are abysmal.

[@fallen4life080]

Tim is a lot like early black players on MLB. They got hated on for literally everything. Jackie robins once threw a baseball at Gil Hodges' head cause they kept giving Jackie 💩 and he also challenged people to fights. Gotta give props to Tim for standing up for himself.

[@kellyprince2552]

First off. Tim Anderson didn't do anything dirty, IMO. Secondly, he should be pissed at his teammates. That's a classic case of when somebody grabs you while you're fighting, and you get slightly distracted and then you turn right into a punch. The Dominican dude on the sox grabbed Anderson from behind when he was about to clock Ramirez. It slowed the momentum of his punch and exposed his chin.
