New York Mets infielders Francisco Lindor and Jeff McNeil got involved in a physical altercation in the clubhouse tunnel during a May 7 game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to Mike Puma of the New York Post.
As Puma explained, the issue came after a dispute about positioning on a defensive shift:
"The shortstop Lindor, frustrated by the second baseman’s latest positioning gaffe and their ensuing argument, grabbed McNeil by the throat and pinned him against a wall in the tunnel, according to multiple industry sources. Before the situation could escalate, Mets players hearing the commotion arrived to break it up.
