On Monday, the biggest headlines in Major League Baseball action involved a brawl between the Nationals and Giants after Bryce Harper was hit with a Hunter Strickland pitch.
As always in 2017, plenty of people had plenty to say on the matter via social media. Here are some of the best comments and some extra video/GIF footage. We'll get Kyle Farnsworth to weigh in and pay particular attention to Madison Bumgarner in the dugout along with the Jeff Samdardzija/Mike Morse collision. Also, obviously 50 Cent makes an appearance as well as a Crying Jordan.
Let's dive in.
so you feel like a tough guy throwing a ball at someone from 60.5 feet away because he hurt your feelings? I got that right?

Posey did NOTHING to stop Harper from getting to his pitcher. I've never seen that before in my life #giants #nationals

That was awful! And what was Posey doing as well. He just sat there! Terrible!! https://t.co/cZ3894UUxp

Probably just wanted to pull his hat over his eyes so he couldn't see what he was punching at. #kindagoodtacticskinda https://t.co/zlOazSr0mi

Wouldn't be surprised or blame Posey if he calls GM and says he needs to get rid of Strickland now!!!

You can never fall for the fake helmet throw, but you should also probably not be throwing at someone for something that happened years ago!
