"After Rafael Devers smashed his 30th home run of the season off lefthander Kyle Freeland to give the Giants a 2-0 lead, the two exchanged words as San Francisco's slugger rounded the bases. As the benches cleared, Giants third baseman Chapman ran up to Freeland and shoved the pitcher. A few seconds later, as the teams met at the pitchers' mound, Adames confronted Freeland and appeared ready to fight with the Rockies starter, but ended up only lightly patting the pitcher."
"A benches-clearing brawl resulted in Willy Adames and Matt Chapman being ejected in the top of the first inning of San Francisco's game in Colorado on Tuesday. Once the teams went back to their respective dugouts and Devers rounded the bases, umpire Phil Cuzzi tossed Adames, Chapman and Freeland. The Giants players were due up next in the batting order. Casey Schmitt, coming off an elbow injury sustained on Monday, came in to play second base as Christian Koss shifted over to shortstop."
