RAY KNIGHT FIGHT! One of the more memorable REDS games of the 1980s ERA, even though they lost. The focal point was when Eric Davis slid hard into Mets third baseman Ray Knight, who responded by punching Davis in the face, igniting a 16-minute bench-clearing brawl in the 10th inning.....The Mets won this crazy 5 hour marathon @ Riverfront with Reds in 14 innings, 6 - 3. Setting the tone, Darryl Strawberry is ejected after arguing a called third strike in the 5th. In the 9th, Howard Johnson inadvertently kicks the ball after Reds C Bo Diaz drops a third strike. Johnson runs out of the baseline and is hit in the back with the throw from pitcher Ron Robinson. Reds coach Billy DeMars is ejected for arguing the safe call. The Mets, down 3 - 1 with two out, tie the game when Dave Parker drops a routine fly ball. In the 10th, Davey Johnson sends in pitcher Rick Aguilera to hit for pitcher Doug Sisk. Aguilera walks, but is stranded. In the Reds 10th, pinch-runner Eric Davis steals second and third base, bumping into Ray Knight. Knight decks Davis and both benches empty. Knight, Davis, Kevin Mitchell and Mario Soto are ejected. Gary Carter moves to 3B, Roger McDowell comes in to pitch, and Jesse Orosco moves from the mound to RF. With two out and a runner on second base in the 11th, Orosco returns to pitch, McDowell moves to LF, and Mookie Wilson shifts to right. Reds player-manager Pete Rose protests when Orosco is permitted eight warm-up pitches. Orosco whiffs Max Venable to end the inning. In the 12th, the Mets are forced to lead off the inning with Orosco and McDowell, and go down in order. McDowell returns to pitch in the 13th and gets Tony Perez to fly to Orosco in right. Howard Johnson belts a three-run homer in the 14th and McDowell retires the side in order to end the 5 hour game (!). baseball-reference/boxes/CIN/CIN198607220.shtml VIDEO!!!
