Just when you thought we were done with last week's benches clearing incident between the Red Sox and Rockies last week, there's more! In case you live under a rock, tempers flared after Cal Quantrill eviscerated Reese McGuire while walking off the field. 

You really can't do anything after someone brings up that you were once caught by police jerking off in a parking lot. That's checkmate. Just gotta pretend you didn't hear anything and walk away. Well, McGuire instead got into it with Quantrill and blew the top off the whole scene. Obviously nothing really happened on the field. There's got to be real bad blood and hatred for hands to be thrown during a baseball fight. Eventually they all cooled off and continued on with the game. 

That wasn't all though according to this report from Mass Live. After getting blown out 20-7 and losing the series to the Rockies, the Sox players went on a mission to confront the Rockies in the tunnels of Coors Field and continue the fight. If you can't beat the Rockies on the field and your own player gets humiliated about the time he got caught whacking off in his car, then surely you gotta go out winning a fight. Either lose everything across the board or pick up a W before the flight home. 

(Mass Live) Multiple Red Sox players, speaking anonymously, confirmed Saturday that the fourth-inning benches-clearing incident between the teams nearly restarted after the final out of Colorado’s 20-7 win. In an incident that caused stadium security to briefly get involved, Red Sox players sought out Rockies starter Cal Quantrill in hopes of confronting him over language he used in a back-and-forth with backup catcher Reese McGuire on the field. 

Because there are no TVs in the dugout, it wasn’t until after the game, back in the visitor’s clubhouse, that most players, including McGuire, found out what Quantrill (as captured by cameras) said to McGuire on the field — and the stir it had caused online. That realization led to many Red Sox wanting to go back for more — with one prominent Sox player so incensed that he started asking stadium personnel where he could find the home clubhouse, where the Rockies were packing up for a road trip to San Francisco. Red Sox players were spotted waiting out by Colorado’s team bus at one point as well.

Obligatory call back to the NBA on TNT's police presence clip. 

The real takeaway for me is Trevor Story's role in this. For the first time in his Red Sox career, he had a chance to make an impact. All he needed to do? Tell his teammates where to go so they could fight the Rockies. He had the map in his head. Guy played their for six years and for sure knows the secret passages to get where you need to go in seconds. Surely he chose to back his boys and be there for his teammate, right? Right? 

Injured Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story, a former Rockie who still has many friends on the Colorado roster, was instrumental in preventing a potentially ugly incident postgame. The sense among those who witnessed the events was that an altercation was narrowly avoided.

“I was in a unique position (having been a member of both teams),” said Story, explaining his role as peacemaker. “But I didn’t like what had been going on.”

Guy had no answers for them. Better go ask that security guard over there because Rockies lifer Trevor Story isn't leading the way. You gotta go get Jack Bauer to beat it out of him if you want answers. Not Reese. Never mind. 

I'm sure the focus during Boston sports talk radio today will be how the Yankees put them in their place this weekend, but it should be about Trevor Story just not being one of the boys. Guy has more loyalty to the 2021 Rockies than his current team. 

I'm also laughing at the idea that these teams were just gonna fight at the airport. All because someone called out their guy for definitely jerked off in a parking lot. Wish they actually fought for the videos we'd see from random pedestrians. 

There was also some concern that things could escalate outside Coors Field were the team’s busses were parked or at Denver International Airport if the teams arrived simultaneously. Fortunately, neither happened.

Had to think seeing the guys (minus Trevor Story) have his back that much made Reese feel himself a little bit. Probably a little jacked up about the moment. All to just be DFA'd a few days later.

The timing of it all is super interesting. Sure the acquisition of Danny Jansen renders Reese useless on the roster, but does any of this happen if he doesn't get called out for jerking off in a parking lot that one time? Hard to say.
