This was an ugly game. First Devon Travis was hit by a pitch from Erasmo Ramirez and left the game. (It turns out it is a badly bruised forearm. He will likely miss up to a week but not need any D.L. time.)
Later, after Teoscar Hernandez homered, Ramirez hit Rusney Castillo. Castillo take great exception to it and charged the mound. Punches were thrown and benches cleared.
Josh Donaldson made them pay for it by following with a homer but in the end the Mariners beat the Jays 6-3.
