Benches clear between Mets, D-Backs after Stroman-Rojas spat

Things got heated between the New York Mets and Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday, as the benches and bullpens cleared at the end of the fifth inning.

The incident occurred after right-hander Marcus Stroman and Josh Rojas got into a verbal spat when the infielder popped out to end the inning.

"He was looking at me after I flew out. We made eye contact and we had an exchange of words. I was just trying to get the guys going," Rojas said postgame, according to Zach Buchanan of The Athletic.

Cooler heads did prevail, as nobody was ejected after the fracas.
