CINCINNATI - There aren't likely to be any Christmas cards exchanged between Chicago Cubs pitcher Pedro Strop and Cincinnati Reds outfielder Yasiel Puig after the two had words with each other as the benches cleared in the Cubs 6-0 win on Saturday.
Puig got hit in the hip by a 3-0 pitch from Strop in the bottom of the eighth inning and began to walk towards the mound while screaming at the pitcher. Cubs' catcher Willson Contreras and first baseman Anthony Rizzo held Puig back while the two kept yelling at each other.
