Contreras-Woodruff Feud Escalates in Red Sox-Brewers Game

0:00On April 7th, things heated up Monday night in Boston during the Red Sox Brewers game when Milwaukee pitcher Brandon Woodruff plunked Boston first, basement Wilson Contreras with a pitch. This marks the sixth time Woodruff has hit Contreras over his 11-year career, and Contreras made it clear he's fed up. The incident happened with runners on first and second, Red Sox of 1-0. Woodruff had walked Contreras earlier that game, but Contreras still went 3-3 with two runs batted in and a homer. Contreras vented afterward, basically saying if it happens again, he'll take out one of their pitchers. Brewers players like Christian Yelich and Woodruff shrugged it off, calling it the same old routine they've dealt with for years. Contreras just firing, up his squad. Yelich, a former National League MVP, said they've seen this act for a decade, while Woodruff stayed focused on his job from the mound. Game 2 is Tuesday, with Brewers writing. Jacob Misioroski facing Red Sox lefty and Garrett Crochet could be more fireworks ahead.
