Watch Bench-clearing brawl provoker gets standing ovation from Seattle Mariners fans

Jesse Winder at bat, Seattle Mariners v Houston Astros was applauded and given standing ovations on Monday by supporters at T-Mobile Park. Jesse received cheers for being the instigator of the bench-clearing brawl between and Mariners the day before. Winker was hit by a pitch from Angels pitcher Andrew Wantz in the second inning of Sunday's matchup. Winker charged the Angels dugout, and the teams soon exchanged blows. The melee between the Angels and Mariners involved pushing, shoving, and punching, unlike some recent baseball brawls.

All-Star Mike Trout was utterly upset after reliever Erik Swanson pitched a ball right past his head. Mike Trout said, “If you can’t pitch inside, don’t pitch inside. If you’re going to hit me, hit me in the ribs, don’t hit me in the head. I don’t know if that was the intent, but anything at the head, you don’t do that.” The tension from Saturday's game carried onto Sunday's game. In retaliation to Erik Swanson's fastball, Andrew Wantz threw a pitch behind Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez in the very first inning of Sunday's game. When Wantz hit Jesse Winker in the next inning, things went wild.
