The Cincinnati Reds haven’t been very fun to watch so far this season.
They have started 1-7 and had a stretch where they didn’t score a run in 30 straight innings.
Today, the Reds showed a little life early as Derek Dietrich hit a bomb into the Allegheny River and decided to admire it a little longer than Pirates’ pitcher Chris Archer probably liked.

During Dietrich’s next at bat Archer threw behind him and Reds manager David Bell ran out to argue with the umpire.
All hell broke loose after that and there was no one more fired up than Yasiel Puig.
Take a look at the video that documents most of what happened.

The feature image with Puig trying to fight the whole Pirate team has since gone viral and is the talk of baseball.
Now if the Reds could just figure out how to win a game.
