I was working for USC then, so I was kinda in the mix for the Olympics. I had been working every day since July 23rd, and actually would work until August 17th, then had a week's vacation. On the 12th I was working, then ended relatively early and actually got to see part of the men's marathon as they ran down Expostion Blvd (south end of USC) and then into the Coliseum. Then went home and saw the fight highlights on the sports. Wild. During my vacation, I went to a Padres game and Dick Williams was still serving his suspension. The San Diego paper had an article and a picture of Dick watching the game from the press box (so we wasn't banned from the stadium, probably just couldn't go in the clubhouse during the game)

Oh yeah, on July 24th, I went to a Dodger game, sponsored by one of our vendors (I worked for the USC Bookstore , in charge of receiving gift merchandise, which included a shit load of Olympic merchandise). This vendor ended up with about a million dollars worth of sales to the bookstore (that's a shitload of merchandise in 1984 dollars). Dodgers played the Braves. The starting pitcher for Atlanta? Pascual Perez. 😂 (although this game was nothing like the 8/12 fiasco, he didn't hit anyone, he did act the fool a few times, like stepping of the rubber a bunch of times and some other crap, nothing to start a brawl about). He went 7 innings and left with the score tied. Braves won it with 2 in the 9th. All 3 pitchers fro the Braves were ones that were ejected on 8/12 - Perez, Steve Bedrosian (who got the win) and Donnie Moore (who got a save). Strange times in 1984!

Through that whole brawl you came up with that classic 😆

"If this keeps happening, it's only a matter of time before a coach or somebody has a heart attack ..." I'd have been more worried about first base umpire John McSherry having a heart attack. And sadly, that's just what happened less than 12 years later, when McSherry was behind home plate on Opening Day in Cincinnati. As you can see in this video, he was enormous, weighing close to 400 pounds for much of his adult life, and it caught up with him. Seven pitches into that Opening Day game, he called time, started walking towards the Reds' dugout and collapsed near the on-deck circle. Doctors from the Reds and Expos rushed to his side and began performing CPR, but he had suffered a massive heart attack and died. Just 51 years old.

John McSherry, the umpire crew chief would die 12 years later on live TV. As the home plate ump on opening day between the Reds and the Mets, he called 7 pitches in the top of the 1st. He turned to the Red's catcher, said something, signaled Tom Hallion the infield ump to come to him and began walking to the Red's dugout. He then suffered a massive heat attack and collapsed just feet from the dugout.

The most amazing part was they actually finished this game!

I grew up in San Diego and I remember this was the lead story on the news that night. I didn’t know about until then. As a 13 year old kid I was outside playing with my friends all day. Good times.

It made me a padre fan,

ironically, Chris Chambliss tackled Nettles...wonder if they discussed the 1970s Yankees.

Chris Chambliss tackling his former teammate Nettles. That was a crazy game!!

Growing up in Atlanta in 9th grade.. all these names of my team plus Ernie j. And skip c.... remember this well

Class of 87.

Remember watching this one on TV as a kid, hard to believe it has already been that long ago.

This game should be included into the hall of fame

the video quality is amazing. wish there were more vintage videos of this quality on YT

This is how baseball should be played.

A lot of that may be because Garvey, along with Dale Murphy and Tony Gwynn, pretty much stayed out of the messes during the two brawls.

Fake Murphy ended up wresting a fan in the first brawl I believe.

Best part was Murphy's diving catch to end the game.

This film is a gem, for so many reasons...the first thing you notice is that everyone is thin--in athletic shape, but without steroids or other PEDS..the second thing is Donnie Moore opening the video...good grief, is that sad. Then Chambliss tackling Nettles--ex teammates. Then Ed Whitson showing more guts in 5 minutes than he did in his entire Yankee career. Then Claudell, and Eric Show...and the umpire McSherry. It goes on and on. Priceless.

It really was a classic melee. Ed Whitson flexing is hilarious, it was clear that the pacifist Dale Murphy wasn’t going to engage in the scrum, and Garvey’s hair remained immaculate lol. 39 years ago this week…

The picture for this is incredible!! Good job with that!!!

Oh man, Templeton, Garvey, Gwynn, Gossage, I think I saw Bevacqua too that was some classic Padres right there! #FriarFaithful!

The Pads had a squad full of battle tested veterans, and quite a few scrappers.

Amazing video quality here, picture perfect

I watch this at least once or twice a year. I remember seeing clips of this on the news when it happened.

Nice to hear Pete and Skip's voices.

I'm very surprised that they still had enough players to finish this game.

Home Plate Umpire Steve Fields had 19 ejections in the 1984 season. Seventeen of them came in this game.

I had forgotten about this. Clicked on it out of curiosity. As soon as Pete mentioned it was Donnie Moore on the mound, I knew EXACTLY what was going to happen. 😂 Remembered watching it live. 😎👍

This would be a good time to do it too with the corona fueled shutdown......got so many other classic games they've shown, why not this one (or other brawl filled games, Tigers/White Sox 2000 for example, an underrated one in itself that never seems to make any top fight lists for some reason).

I remember reading about this incident in a Sporting News magazine article about baseball fights...quite a bit of fights broke out during the 1984 baseball season. My San Francisco Giants VS Houston Astros from the Houston Astros. LHP Mark Davis hit Astros 1b Enos Cabell with a pitch then Enos went after Davis on the mound then the fight broke out. Cabell and a few Giants players got ejected

Skip was the best- taken from us way too early- (along with Donnie Moore, Alan Wiggins and John McSherry- RIP👍❤️

The best part: the yellow Pro-Keds t-shirt.

Man, a few of those players had problems and died young, notably Eric Show and Alan Wiggins.

The old Fulton County stadium: always thought that was weird along with Candlestick Park had chain link fences for outfield "walls"
