Blue Jays pitcher Jose Berrios speaks on going after Cal Raleigh during the game
During the game against the Mariners, a fight broke out between Raleigh and Berrios which resulted in both benches clearing but everything settled down after that but fans were left in the dark as to why all of that happened.
Jose Berrios had some words for Cal Raleigh after Dylan Moore popped out to end T4. They crossed paths as Berrios was walking to the Jays dugout and Raleigh was running from third back to the Mariners dugout. Benches cleared but nothing came of it.
After the game, Berrios spoke to the media about the incident claiming that Raleigh was relaying pitches and he told him to stop which is what started the whole scrum on the field.
Jose Berrios said Cal Raleigh was relaying pitches from second base and when they crossed paths, he told him that he knew what he was doing, that he didn't like it and to stop.
Berrios stated that when he is facing a batter he takes as if he is going to war which is why he does not want the batter to have any edge on him which is something he is willing to fight for.
José Berrios noticed that Cal Raleigh was relaying his pitches to Mariners hitters.
Berrios said that he considers it «a war» between himself and the hitter, so he doesn't want the hitter having an edge.
«It's a war and I will fight for that.» #BlueJays

While some might say this is part of the game, others would disagree stating that this is cheating from Raleigh.
