Video of the incident doesn’t show what sparked the fight, but viewers were immediately met with the coach and umpire in a shouting match near the pitcher’s mound.
The two appear to make contact, and then the referee wraps his arms around the coach. The plate umpire then tries to separate his teammate from the coach and they both fall to the ground.
Coaches from both sides rushed onto the field to break things up, and several kids seemed confused about what to do.
