It actually appeared to me that the catcher turned into the runner and tried to take him out with a with a body block, but ended up bearing the brunt end of the collision. That runner slid into home right after the collision. I agree that the real instigator of the melee was the second "Egghead" runner who went after the third baseman. He had no business running when he could see in front of him that the PU had his arms up.
