Fight! Fight!

OK, guys, listen up: You aren't supposed to take the Blob's Battle for the Cellar this literally.

("Arrrgh! No! Not another stupid Battle for the Cellar reference!" you're saying.)

Yes, Blobophiles, another stupid Battle for the Cellar reference. Because in this case, it was an actual Battle, sort of, between the sucky Reds and my sucky Pittsburgh Pirates. It was touched off by Pirates pitcher Chris Archer throwing behind a guy, and Yasiel Puig (who wasn't even the guy at the plate) going nuclear as a result.

Baseball being what it is, it wasn't much of a Battle, as you can see here. Just typical baseball stuff, a pile of guys pushing and shoving and yelling a lot, and trying not to get hurt. But it sort of points out, or seems to, how weary these two franchises are of constantly fighting for the title of Cruddiest Team In The NL Central.

In which case, expect more trying-not-to-get-hurt sissy fights in the future.
