Check out Washington Nationals pitcher Jonathan Papelbon give teammate Bryce Harper some lip after he hit a soft pop up, put his head down and jog to first. Harper didn't like that. The two exchanged words. Then started brawling in their own dugout...

A washed up closer that plays in about 1/4th of of the games for one inning telling the NL MVP how to play... right after he blows the game giving up 5 runs........Paplebon seems mad. Maybe he should have tried this before the Nats blew their season.

Harper: Leads NL in AVG, HRs, R, OBP, OPS

Papelbon: 14th in the NL in Saves, 10th in MLB in Blown Saves



Papelbon can STFU until he helps the team half as much as Harper has.

Don't give me this vet vs "youngin" bull shite. Harper ain't no rookie. Pap crossed the line.

thatsG, I don't recall saying that Papelbon had a right to grab Harper by the throat. I said that Harper got his feelings hurt because somebody that's been in the major leagues longer than Harper called him out for being a spoiled lazy arse punk by not hustling down the line. Feel better now?

"Gets mouthy after hearing about it from a vet"
Doesn't justify Papelbon's actions one bit. First of all despite Harper's age, he is a vet himself at this point. What's he already been to 3 all star games in 3 years? Come on man. Going for the throat after calling him out for not hustiling through a pop up is absolutely absurd.

Harper is the franchise. Pap smear about to be gone. Again.

Doesn't hustle down the base line, gets mouthy after hearing about it from a vet.. Harper's lucky he had team mates in the dugout to break up that little scuffle. Paplebon was about to teach that little shite to respect his elders and the game.

Papelbon was about to deliver a South Louisiana beat down to that young lad.

This is about the twelfth time Bryce Harper has been called out for not running to first.

Guy needs a choke slam. Run it out damn.
War of 10.8!

And can't set an example of how to play the game.
