I would agree with this. Although, it didn't work out so well for Milton Bradley last year when his manager pulled him away from an umpire. Oops!!

I have no way of knowing his intentions. I don't know if there might be some kind of history between these teams or players on opposite sides. I would like to say that his actions showed poor judgment; but in these kinds of situations, he may not have been making any judgments at all, except "I gotta break this up".
