Spencer Steer of the Cincinnati Reds was hit by a 93 MPH fastball from Giants pitcher Landen Roupp in their recent game, likely as retaliation for Steer’s outburst towards San Francisco reliever JT Brubaker the night before. During that game, Steer expressed his frustration at Brubaker for delaying a pitch, leading to a heated exchange. The rivalry intensified as both teams experienced further tensions, including another hit batter and a bench-clearing incident. Their next series isn’t until August, giving both sides time to cool off.
