  • Emotions boiled over after the final out of this game, as after the final out was recorded on a broken bat groundout, Fresno closer Juan Mejia turned to the San Jose dugout and yelled and motioned wildly, prompting the San Jose players to charge the field as Mejia was held back by a coach.  As things seemed to calm, the two teams nearly came to blows again, but none were captured by the game camera.
