A furious Chris Davis was restrained by teammates and coaches in the Orioles’ dugout as his team trailed the Yankees during Wednesday night’s game in Baltimore.
The struggling infielder appeared to go after Orioles’ manager Brandon Hyde in the middle of the fifth inning. After a few tense seconds, Davis sat on the bench and collected himself.
Davis was immediately pinch hit for by Jace Peterson, though the cause of the kerfuffle has yet to be revealed. Before the blowup, Hyde could be seen saying something in Davis’ direction.
The 33-year-old veteran finished the game 0-for-1 with a strikeout and is hitting .182 this season. The Orioles are 38-75, which has them in the basement of the American League East.
