Bruce Rondon's 2015 season with the Detroit Tigers came to a rocky ending. The reliever was dismissed from the team for the last 11 games of the season due to a "lack of effort."
Things haven't gotten much better for the 25-year-old righty. A video surfaced Saturday night of the pitcher inciting a brawl in a winter league game when he attempted to pick-off Pittsburgh Pirates prospect Jose Osuna at first base.
The two have words while Rondon is on the mound and the umpires try to keep the two youngsters separated, but Rondon rushes Osuna and begins throwing punches.
The benches and bullpens quickly clear out as the skirmish works its way down the first base line before being broken up.
There's no telling what punishment -- if any -- could come down from the Tigers for the incident.
