Monday night’s Braves and Cubs game had some fireworks early following a pimped home run.
Cubs catcher Willson Contreras hit solo home run off of Julio Tehran in the bottom of the second inning and turned around and said something to Braves catcher Tyler Flowers.
Contreras then pounded his chest towards the Atlanta dugout as he rounded first base before exchanging more words for Flowers at the plate. Things got a little heated and players from both teams left their benches.

Things calmed down from there and no punches ended up being thrown by either side. But this is just the first game of the series and something tells me this conflict is far from over.
