Both teams' benches cleared to join the brawl on the pitcher's mound. Machado was ejected from the game.
Ventura and Machado had been arguing on the field after Machado flew out in the second inning, Deadspin reported.
The pitch aimed at Machado was Ventura's hardest throw all night.
Yordano Ventura was 96-98 most of the night with his fastball. The single hardest pitch he threw was the one that hit Manny Machado: 99 mph.— Jeff Passan (@Jeff Passan)1465347383.0
