It can also happen when someone accidentally swallows something with a sharp edge that tears it. May reportedly felt pain while eating.

IMO, that is one of the few, benches clearing altercations, that doesn't need those quotation marks. Punches were actually landed, especially by Graeme Lloyd and Darryl Strawberry. It wasn't the first time Armando Benitez had deliberately thrown at Tino and that 1998 team absolutely had his back. That incident solidified the unity of that amazing team, all the way to 114 regular season wins, plus the 11 playoff victories to win the World Series. This is a good game today. I'm not happy with the Santander dinger, but the most interesting games are always those close games where the lead goes back and forth. Should be a good final four innings.
