Brandon Hyde, the Baltimore Orioles manager, was at the center of a benches-clearing brawl against the New York Yankees after a high-and-inside pitch hit Orioles' Heston Kjerstad in the head. The game, which ended in a Yankees victory, turned heated as Hyde attempted to confront the Yankees dugout, only to be stopped by backup catcher Austin Wells, who was celebrating his birthday. The incident added fuel to an already intense season series between the two teams. Yankees' ace Gerrit Cole led his team to victory with a strong pitching performance, highlighting the importance of the win amidst a shaky rotation. As tensions simmer between the teams, the focus remains on the bigger goal of playoff contention, with both teams likely to secure spots. The next game promises to be a crucial one in this fierce rivalry.
