A starting pitcher coming up for his 4th AB was the craziest part of this.
Ya, a different era
When men were MEN!!!
PrettyPearlAllDay yea, okay
PrettyPearlAllDay Ok, boomer
19th century pitchers: 4 ABs? Pathetic.
Every player in the 80s looked like they were in their 50s
All humans. They even talked different too. I watched a documentary on watergate and it was so weird the ppl almost didn’t even seem like Americans.
Alcohol and cigarettes
@@SonOfPatriots and bales of Cocaine in the 80s.
@ no it was drugs. weirdo
High T. Low bromides.
I forgot how unathletic proffesional athletes looked back in the eighties. They look like my dad's beer league softball team. I miss the eighties.
Yeah man, the difference of leg circumference from these dudes to players today is insane
Yes. But they can still out play most of today's athlete's. Especially when it comes to injuries, lol.
@@bradbroemmer9085 nah not at all. The level of competition has risen considerably
@@P_steez, did you watch baseball back then, in the 70's and 80"s? I did. And I'll take Reggie Jackson over most players today. Are some of them in better shape than back then. Probably. But I don't believe they're better. Besides, most pitchers today can't go past 5 innings. Back then they had to pitch most, if not all, the game.
@@bradbroemmer9085yep, I’m 51 and grew up in that time of professional sports. You have multi million dollar players missing first base after hitting a homerun and you have other players literally missing home plate just from jogging home. Really miss those days of players actually caring about the games instead of trying to make a statement.
John McSherry -- he was a player's umpire. Old school. Weighed close to 400 pounds much of his career. Died of a massive heart attack while calling balls and strikes on opening day in Cincinnati 12 years later. The guy was beloved -- coaches and players were in tears. They postponed the game out of respect.
In that era it looked like about half of the umpires could drop at any moment. Eric Gregg, who was pushing well over 4 bills at his heaviest also died of a stroke at 55. The MLB finally started to enforce weight limits in the late 90's, but unfortunately it didn't save those 2 guys.
@@threerings1345 That's right, I forgot about the weight limits, thanks for mentioning that.
someone dying on the field probably merits a postponement.
@@leonrobinson1926 Yes, indeed. Everyone seemed to understand and be OK with that -- including the fans -- except for Marge Schott, the irascible Reds' owner who had all the sensitivity of a brick. Reason prevailed, thankfully.
@John Smith We're talking about Marge Schott, a Nazi sympathizer who literally worshipped a dog. By that point she was hiding her own Easter eggs, anyway.
I’ve never seen a team so determined to try and nail a guy. That is hilarious 😂
That’s #7 on the Padres, Kurt Bevacqua, Who Lasorda once said: “ Couldn’t hit water if he fell out of a fucking boat.”
O.P. Yates he couldn’t hit a hooker if he was Charlie sheen
Only 35 years ago could warnings being given out before the game and could a guy throw FOUR pitches at a dude's chest before he got ejected.
@@thezachman1 I mean 35 years ago isn't "only" 35 years, that's quite some time lol
@@harkriz415 Only isn't meant to be in the context of "well, it's only a small fee", it was meant to denote a singular instance.
Dude it just didn’t stop and imagine a kid got baseball tickets to see this game for his birthday and this is what happens best birthday ever
I was 8 years old watching this on TBS and it stuck in my mind ever since. I already loved baseball but this was a Seminole moment in my baseball fandom
Lolol like the old saying about a hockey game , " hey I went to a fight and a baseball game broke out "
If i was that kid i think i would say while watching them fighting "Best Birthday Ever!"
Totally man
Can you imagine as a kid watching three pitchers get ejected for trying to hit a single batter? Terrible.
There's a legendary story about "Perimeter Pascual" Perez from the 1982 season that most Braves fans have heard but some of the younger fans or fans of other teams may have not. I-285 is the 64 mile loop around the city that we call The Perimeter. Perez was traded to the Braves in July of 82. The next month he was scheduled for a start, was headed down I-85 and accidentally took the exit to get on 285. He then proceeds to drive 150 miles, circling around Atlanta two and a half times and didn't stop until he finally started running out of gas. He pulls into a gas station, walks in, one of the workers happened to be listening to the pregame broadcast and says, "hey aren't you Pascual Perez? They're looking for you at the stadium." So the worker drives him to old Atlanta Fulton County Stadium, he gets there right before the game starts, Phil Neikro has gotten loose at this point, he gets the start, Braves win.
Pascual makes it to the ballpark on time the next night, he gets the start this time, pitches 9 and two thirds, doesn't give up a run until the 10th inning. Braves score two in the tenth to win 2-1 and the legend of Perimeter Pascual was born. Or 285 Pascual or simply I-285, whatever you wanted to call him. Braves teammates hung maps of the city in Pascual's locker and Bob Watson said "sometimes it takes getting lost to find yourself." RIP Pascual
That’s an amazing story, thanks for sharing!
I remember that!
I didn't know that story. Thanks for sharing!
I remember this
That was a great and hilarious story, but fuck Pascual Perez. He was a piece of crap his entire career. Dude wasn't working with a full deck.
I just watched this breakdown again for probably the millionth time. The line, "Woodson is so nuts that he make Goose Gossage look normal." still makes me literally laugh out loud every time I see it. Mad levels of staying power from this video. Legit: pure gold.
Whitson! Gowdammit!
It's my favorite of all the Jomboy vids, capped off by the dude looking like Rudy who ran on the field. lmao.
7:07-8:04 Hilarious man! 🤣🤣🤣
Golly, I don't watch baseball and even I have heard of Goose Gossage! That guy sure gets around... LMAO.
Whitson not Woodson😆
Champ Summers is the most baseball name I ever heard
I'd say it's the most softball name I've ever heard.
Most All American
@@miketheyunggod2534 dont ruin it. Just go with champ
Best baseball name ever was Rusty Kuntz.
@@phrog70trevino21 I think that belongs in the best name ever category
The golden age of baseball. Back when the players kept their plumber's physiques by a regiment of excessive amounts of Schaefer beer, and cauldrons of Mac n cheese.
Don't forget cigarettes
@@JamesEarlBonez Oh yeah! Damn! How can I forgot about that? Yeah, in those days everybody smoked. I remember going to the doctor's office, and the doctor actually smoking in his office. People used to smoke on buses, trains and even in movie theaters. Times have changed so much.
Because eating tide pods and styling your hair with gorilla glue, is a much better generation. 😱
and cocaine
That’s some funny shit right there.
I was at this game. Back then going to a Braves game was a crap shoot. Chief Nock-a-homa was always drunk. The score was more like a football game. More fights than a hockey game. You could get a $2 bleacher ticket and go by Green's Package and get a couple of plastic gallon jugs of beer and bring in your own cooler. Those were the days.
don't forget the bucket of KFC
Fulton County Stadium often seemed like it had 12 people in the stands but a million-plus watching on TBS ha. My grandmother was a HUGE Braves fan and she lived her entire life in Texas.
Fulton county stadium!
Gawdam that's SO fucking hilarious the way you described it. I'm crying...
That stadium made every game feel like a circus. I don't miss it.
“Bob Horner’s in deep thought, but also out of breath. That’s kind of his life. Good for you Bob.” 😂
Jomboy can do you a breakdown of how my marriage fell apart?
Ahahahah
yeah send over the footage
@@JomboyMedia omg please
Hoooooly crap, best screenshot of the day, over here. And it's been a good screenshot day.
It’s okay buddy there’s a lot of free agents available.
So, Champ Summers was signed by the Oakland A's after being discovered in a softball game. Man, everything was better back then
@Vincent Cuttolo Ron Leflore now there's a name I haven't heard in a while. Didn't they make some sort of made-for-TV movie about his life? I think I'll ask google. Why, yes. Yes they did make a made-for-TV movie about Ron LeFlore. "One in a million: The Ron LeFlore Story". Remember watching it as a kid. Don't really remember too much about it, though, except this one scene where another prisoner makes a pass at him and he beats the crap out of him, screaming, "I'm a man! A man!" Ahh, the 70s.
Everything!
They actually hired a lot more Americans
And after Vietnam
@@Mattology1 ok
In my whole life, i had never heard my mom say any cuss words until this game !!! 😱 RIP, Mom!!! Go Padres 👍😎
As a 67 yr old lifetime Padre fan this was the best fight in the history of MLB! Padres won the NL Pennant but lost to the Tigers who won it all. What a great game and year!! Go Padres!!
Tigers/Padres - Kirk Gibson's 1st of 2 WS greatest home runs.
Every time I see Bevacqua's name, I think of Tommy Lasorda lol. Couldn't hit water falling out of a effing boat.
LOST TO THE TIGERS?!?!?!!?? LMAFOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
How can you not be all in on Champ Summers.
Right? He had seen some SHIT in Vietnam, he doesn't have time for a fan throwing Coors Light and jumping on his back.
It’s too bad he passed away. Cancer is a piece of shit
How can you not be all in on the question mark?
way to ruin a good comment Rhys....the punctuation physician: "Dr. Ryhsician, you're wanted in the chat room to bring up some mundane bullshit yet again, like only you can do"

3:51 "You gotta be better at throwing cups full of liquid."
Your delivery of this line is so laid back and casual lolol almost as if tho you think EVERYONE should know how to hurl cups full of liquid lolol I love it. I love you jomboy
"Bob Horner is in deep thought.....and out of breath. That's kinda his life..." Popped me good 🤣
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again.
My favorite guy in these brawls is ALWAYS the guy who comes running in full steam then proceeds to leap directly over the pile
Pig Pile!
About to go order a Champ Summers Jersey
Alas nowhere to be found
I saw this comment getting upvoted in real time ha ha
If you slow down the part with him running, you can see a wake of pure testosterone
Charges at Braves and Viet Cong...no fear!
I'm about to go order a Bob Horner jersey
The names in that brawl... 70s Yankees Nettles, Gossage, Chambliss... Joe Pignatano, bullpen coach of the Miracle Mets, Bob Gibson, who threw his share of knockdown pitches in a HOF career, and 67 year old Johnny Sain who won a pennant with the Boston Braves in '48.
Spahn and Sain and pray for rain…
and Joe Torre, Tony Gwynn.
was a senior in high school and watch evry game i could on tv, this was one of them and I'll never forget it. Was awesome.
Braves and Padres should commemorate this every season like those who dress up to re-enact the Civil War. Someone dresses up as Goose Gossage, Champ Summers and Joe Torre. And let's not forget Horner wearing a cast and Sean Astin look-a-like.
Hilarious!
🤣🤣
Don't forget the guy who brings cocaine and plays Ed Whitson!
@@combomamba I was just gonna say to have someone all shirtless and ganked out like Ed Whitson
😆🤟
Damn , That was a beauty ! multiple fan arrests , charging with bats , handlebar mustaches . That game had it all.
We need a modern era one of those
Tigers-White Sox 2000 was a real rocker too.
Todays MLB players are a bunch of wussies....
I'm trying to think of something that would have made it even more entertaining. Maybe if they issued low-velocity BB guns (and safety glasses) to all the players.
@@joemag6032 The benny hill theme playing in the stands
@@hellowang74 , an excellent suggestion !
Ironically, the two players facing off against each other at the beginning of the game who started off the whole fracas - Alan Wiggins & Pascual Perez - both led very troubled lives and died tragic deaths at early ages.
Everyone forgets about Donnie Moore. Pretty brutal.
@@albiepakin7035 I don’t think anyone who grew up in so. Ca. At that time can forget about Donnie Moore.
@@albiepakin7035 Eric Show and Tony Gwynn met tragic ends, too.
Champ Summers and Eric Show died young as well
@@woff92s Champ Summers was 66 when he died. A little early, but he wasn't exactly young like Eric Show or Alan Wiggins.
This game is full of so many iconic moments, 80’s baseball just hit different!
Literally in this case. 😂
Did the Padres even have any managers left? Like who was managing the team? The head trainer?
They had three coaches left after the big scrum in the 8th. Pitching coach Norm Sherry, bench/hitting coach Deacon Jones, and bullpen coach Harry Dunlop. The others had been ejected (manager Dick Williams, 3rd base coach Ozzie Virgil, and 1st base coach Jack Krol).
The club house manager.
The bat boy was getting prepared.
A hot dog vendor.
David Lopez 😂😂😂
*Some info about Champ Summers (Vietnam)*
“He survived a tour of duty in Vietnam, where he served as a paratrooper. One day while driving an Army truck, he drove over a landmine, which exploded. Summers suffered a concussion and a broken nose, but remarkably escaped a far more dire fate. After his tour of duty ended, he attended Southern Illinois University and actually turned to softball.
WAAAAT?!? Not only did he play for the Cubs, he is a fellow Saluki as well! Hooooly shit, this video keeps getting better and better!
Loved him as a Tiger
My uncle served with him in Vietnam. RIP. A lot of these guys have since passed away.
@@reychafamex9450 man, as siue alum that lives near Bremerton where he’s from, I was all on board the Champ train until hearing he’s a Cubby. Cards for life, sorry champ.
@@jamesfields2916 Your uncle served with the best! I prayed for all the soldiers in Viet Nam every night in the 60's. Brave men!

I can't believe that I found this after all these years. I went to school with Tony G. at San Diego State. He was really a terrific guy. I remember this incident being a really big deal on the local news; way more important than the next days surf report.
Gwynn getting into the brawl is a shock, since he was so nice. Then again he was probably protecting his teammates.

It's not always easy to hit your mark. Gotta keep in mind he's moving too.
@@russellleblanc1539 Skinny dude too. Have better luck trying to hit a broom standing up.
@@sportsjefe yeah I was never a pitcher. I was always right field cus my fielding was so bad lol but I was always a starter because I was possibly one of the only ones on the team that could hit really good. That being said I had this thing I loved to do to waste time. When my friend was done with his Arizona can I'd place it flat against the wall and just throw as hard as I could trying to hit it. My friends would sit and chit chat while watching to pass the time. I'd crush it almost every 12th throw. It's not very easy to always hit the exact mark. But it was fun. The ball would be wrapped by an aluminum Arizona can. I'd throw 68-72 max (not anymore tho).

Lmao is that a 1984 reference? Animal House? I'm not sure which.
Champ Summers was actually a very good platoon player when he was with the Tigers. Hit something like 22 HRs in only 350 at bats one year, but by this time he was reduced to a pinch hitting role. His given first name is John, but when he first came up with the A’s, he mentioned to Reggie Jackson that his childhood nickname was Champ, so Reggie encouraged him to use it to give himself some swag.
RIP to ALL of the Braves and Padres players and coaches who have passed away. 🙏🙏🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

Awesome video. I remember watching this one, and Ernie Johnson Sr. saying "Put the bat down, Pascual. Put the bat down." during the broadcast. There is another video floating around that shows the first brawl, but I had never seen footage of the second.
Thanks for the upload and your perspective on this game. With all the fighting, with all the little skirmishes and rolling around. Steve Garvey's hair never fell out of place.
The one player with his shirt off in the dugout with his taco meat hair and gold chain is the most 1980’s thing EVER! 😂😂😂
That was actually the starting pitcher, Ed Whitson.
Yeah that looks like a guy work with right now at fedex 😂😂😂
Taco meat hair 🤣🤣🤣

I looked up a few short biographies on some of these people. My god, it's just heartbreaking to read. One tried to murder his wife and committed suicide. Another was possibly murdered in an attempted robbery. A third died of AIDS, one of the first big name baseball players to die of the disease.

Who else can't wait for MLB to conclude their investigation of the Astros?
Me. As a depressed Astros fan I just want it done with. It's a sucky time right now, lol.

The "big fella" is John McSherry, who would tragically pass away from a heart attack during the 1996 Opening Day game
Jeff Allen correct. He was well respected and was a tough thing to watch in ‘96.
IIRC it was at Riverfront Stadium in Cincinnati. Very tough to watch. He knew he was having trouble & tried to go to the ump's locker room, unfortunately he collapsed before he could get to the door behind home plate. Med staff performed CPR but it was unsuccessful.
Who didn't see that coming?
@@norsefury74 real classy bud
There were lots of morbidly obese umpires in the 80’s, looking at you Eric Greg.

Great video and explanation of what was going on! Informative and fun to watch!
Yeah, and no cocaine was consumed in the dugouts. Right 🙄
Eric Show, one of the Padres on the mound, died of Cocaine a few years later.
Daaamn
The players in the early 80's look like they worked for the local iron workers union.. just everyday looking dudes who happened to know how to play basball..
I had completely forgot about this classic, so much so it was like seeing it for the first time. I like how the names on the back of the uniforms was line an all star game!
Has to be the greatest baseball brawl alltime, can't think of any better,longer, one
Imagine watching all this live, man what an experience that would have been.
I did watch it live on TBS, back in the 80s... Skip Carey, who was Harry Carey's son, did the Braves play by play, (his grandson does it today). The fights never ended that day... it was truly a wild, wild game.
Sidenote: That was Donnie Moore who plunked Greg Nettles. He ultimately shot his wife 3 times, after giving up a HR, to blow the game, to Dave Henderson in the '86 ALCS. Their oldest daughter drove her to the hospital, where she survived. Moore turned the gun on himself, in front of their other kids to end his own life.
ESPN did an hour long documentary type thing on this, a few years back.
I went to a AA game in Birmingham several years back when 3 bench clearing brawls broke out. The Barons were playing the Jacksonville Suns. Can't remember how it started but I know Matt Kemp started the 2nd and 3rd brawl. I was second row behind home plate and a little drunk. Another guy and myself were heckling Kemp after the last brawl and he looks at us on his way to the dugout after being ejected and yelled, "What're you gonna do about it, bitch!?" To which I responded, "Stand here and talk shit while you grab some bench!" Clearly I realized I was safe behind the netting and several security guards. lol
The game was called in the top of the 8th because the umpires never had control. This was during an umpire strike so a lot of those guys were local high school and college umpires. That entire night was a ton of fun!
@@JSchaffer214 I miss those dollar beer nights at the Suns' home field, which was really nice. I haven't been since 2005, and I never made it to Birmingham to see the Barons.
Are u really Tay Roc from battle rap?
I remember watching this game when I was 10 years old and playing Little League at the time. My dad was adamant about telling me that’s not how you’re supposed to act playing baseball.
"This guy looking like Rudy"
Omg i was literally like "is that Sam?!"
He was just trying to find Mr. Frodo.
Rudy on steroids. I'd actually be game for watching that fight between the two and I'm not counting Rudy out.
Hands down, the greatest breakdown video in the history of breakdown videos.
As a big Padres fan, I remember this game. Dave Campbell, the Padres broadcaster, had some choice words to describe Pascual Perez’s behavior. Definitely old school unwritten rules of baseball stuff. Sad to look back and see how many times the Padres and Chargers had great teams but could never win it all.
Our whole family disappointed bolts fans. I think they almost made it to the super bowl one-year in the mid 90's but Miami just clobbered them.
@@eugenel.ferguson3110 they went to the Super Bowl and got blown out by the 49ers in the 90’s. Stan Humphries was the QB
MLB Commissioner: We have no idea how to get new fans.
80’s Baseball: Imma about to end this mans career.
Baseball in the 80's was a whole different kind of ball
Oh yeah. Baseball was way better in the 1980s.
Stadiums were so shitty compared to today... but in a charming way. I grew up going to Arlington Stadium in the '80s and I would swear on my grandmother's life that it was a better ballgame experience than anything happening now - stadiums are nicer and seats are better but the constant barrage of piped in noise and promotions is a drag.
The guy in the blue shirt who threw his beer on the players, I know him. He told me this story and I found it for him. He was reliving his glory days haha
Is he still alive and how long he was in jail
@@crgray1979 He didn't go to jail. He said he immediately realized he messed up and went up a few rows and "hid"
When he said the A-ARON Key and Peele sketch I almost fell out of my chair 🤣
This should be retitled "The Braves, Padres and a sizeable chunk of the 1978 Yankees brawl multiple times."
"You gotta be better at throwing cups of liquid" this had me dead af
Don’t care
Marek Nielsen ok
Tommy Lasorda said of Bevaqua, “The guy can’t hit. He couldn’t hit water if he fell out of a boat.”
Steve Garvey was doing his nails during this😂
This is so fun watching Jomboy breaking down the old Padres
Remember Atlanta was in the NL West, same division as the Padres back in the day. So they were rivals, for people that forget they were in the same division.
Pop loop
When the lead singer of ELO comes out of the stands in a purple tank top, you know you got a donnybrook on your hands.
Don't forget the guy from the Country Club in the Yellow pants.
thought he was the bassist for Judas Priest
Allen was one of my closest friends and teammate from little league through high school. We even won a 16-18 yr old Senior Babe Ruth World Series. I miss my man!
Fun Pascual Perez fact. He once got scratched from a start for us because he got lost trying to find Fulton-County Stadium. Being a Braves fan in the 80s was...challenging.
Hey my mom actually knew Champ Summers when he was on the cubs... We actually still have a bat he gave her back in the day lol
Did you ever ask your mom HOW she "knew" him?
@@GD1082 lol same thought
He definitely gave her the bat. Haha
The 37 year old in the bottom of the group was Kurt bevaqua and I played with his kid Brody for a few years

From Erwin TN, 10 miles from my hometown
Researching Ed Whitson brought me here and boy am I glad that it did lol! Dude was nuts! (Also fought Billy Martin at a hotel bar when he was with the Yankees)
Damn jomboy all ur videos are very interesting keep up the good work
Big umpire dude was John McSherry. He died during a game when he had a heart attack
And on opening day too.
@@jerwwilliams yeah. very sad
That’s too bad,
What? Lol
Very interesting comment. Never knew that.
"Bob Horners in deep thought but also out of breath.""That's kinda his life".
I’m a braves fan and I saw this live, there is nothing wrong with bunting for base hits even if your breaking up a no hitter. Maybe play a little defense.
Love the narration! The best!
