Tigers' Framber Valdez ejected after plunking Red Sox's Trevor Story, sparking benches-clearing scuffle

Houston Astros pitcher Framber Valdez was ejected on Tuesday after hitting Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story with the first pitch of his at-bat. The incident occurred immediately following back-to-back home runs hit by Boston, suggesting possible retaliation. The hit-by-pitch triggered a benches-clearing scuffle between the two teams.
