Andrew McCutchen gave us his play-by-play of the Giants-Dodgers fracas

(Lynne Sladky)

There was a bench-clearing kerfuffle that occurred during the Giants' 2-1 win over the Dodgers on Tuesday night. Los Angeles outfielder Yasiel Puig and San Francisco catcher Nick Hundley were ejected following the incident, and Andrew McCutchen was gracious enough to give us the breakdown of it.
The Giants outfielder posted on his Instagram story exactly what was going through his mind as he witnessed everything that went down, and we were not disappointed: 

He gave the play-by-play of the moment the bullpen ran out, describing it "like a tornado" and even considered getting in a karate-pose move. He didn't, which makes us kind of sad.
"But I didn't do it," he said.
He also added that for outfielders, by the time they arrive, brawls are usually over.
"Being an outfielder during a brawl is the equivalent to being a little kid and showing up to a birthday party late," he said. "It's like you're coming in all excited, and they already went and ate the cake."
