Video: Dodgers' Joe Kelly Taunts Astros Before Benches Clear

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Joe Kelly kicked off an altercation in Tuesday's game against the Houston Astros after taunting Carlos Correa:

The words resulted in both sides' benches clearing:

Kelly entered the game in the sixth inning and didn't allow a run, but he did cause some drama during the inning. As Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times noted, the pitcher walked Alex Bregman with a 96 mph fastball behind the hitter's head.

Three batters later, Kelly threw a wild pitch that nearly hit Correa in the head, per Castillo.

The Astros shortstop ended up striking out to end the inning, but it's clear he took offense to the dangerous pitches.
