Tigers: Cabrera, Romine wrestle as benches clear

From our partners at WOOD TV: 

Detroit slugger Miguel Cabrera  and Yankees catcher Austin Romine wrestled on the ground near home plate  during a bench-clearing fracas in the sixth inning of Thursday’s game.

New  York reliever Tommy Kahnle and manager Joe Girardi had just been  ejected after Kahnle threw a pitch behind Cabrera. With the game about  to resume, Cabrera stepped toward Romine and the two exchanged words.  The New York catcher took off his mask, and Cabrera gave him a  two-handed push to the chest.

Cabrera appeared to take a couple of  swings at Romine, and the two ended up on the ground as players from  both teams spilled onto the field.  Cabrera and Romine were both  ejected.
