During the Blue Jays 7-4 victory over the Yankees, reigning AL MVP, Josh Donaldson had a little bit of a blowup in the dugout. After striking out, Donaldson threw his bat in the dugout, to the dismay of the Blue Jays manager, John Gibbons. Tensions rose quickly and teammates even had to step in and pull Donaldson away. Winning does help solve issues because when asked about it after the game, Donaldson joking answered, "Gibby asked me what kind of cologne I was wearing."

2013 was a good year for Big Papi and the Boston Red Sox, winning the 2013 World Series. But not every game was as fun as that series winning Game 6, for David Ortiz. In a game against Baltimore, David Ortiz was ejected for arguing a strike call made by home plate umpire, Tim Timmons. Ortiz made sure not to leave without a parting gift. (Poor Dustin Pedroia).

Sometimes we can be so disgusted with our own performances, it might make you want to go crazy. That was the definitely the case with Brian Wilson back in 2011. Coming into this game against the Tigers, the leader in saves in the MLB (at the time) had blown back to back saves. Unfortunately for the water cooler, Wilson allowed a run in the 9th inning of this game and was pulled for Jeremy Affeldt.

2015 was not a good year for the Nationals, despite Harper looking to be on his way to win the NL MVP. In this game against the Phillies, Harper hit a high popup for an easy out. Pitcher Jonathan Papelbon was not happy with Harper watching the ball soar and not running the base hard. Papelbon made sure to let Harper know how he felt when he returned to the dugout and safe to say things got awkward. words were said and then Papelbon was seen charging at Harper and attempting to choke him. "Clown move bro."
