Toronto Blue Jays and New York Yankees

A fight or more over a scuffle happened between the Toronto Blue Jays and the New York Yankees, the Yankees one of the most classless teams in baseball with. Why? One time, the Yankees were playing the Anaheim Angels and the Angels were at Yankee Stadium, the Yankees play the Jeopardy song when the catcher goes and talks to his pitcher not only does this go for the Angels, but it goes for ever team the Yankees play at home. Way to go, Yanks!

As for mentioning these two teams:

Yankees' catcher Jorge Posada and Blue Jays' pitcher Jesse Carlson were suspended, as of yesterday (Wednesday. September 16, 2009) for starting a brawl at homeplate. Posada thought that Carlson was in the way, instead of avoiding him he brushed against Carlson. Jim Joyce, the homeplate empire of the game ejected Posada. Carlson screamed at Posada as he was headed back to the dugout. Obviously, Carlson didn't like being pushed out of the way, when clearly Posada had more than enough room to avoid Carlson rather than brushing against him to push him out of the way, so he could be on his way. Posada whipped around and charged Carlson. The dugouts and bullpens of both teams cleared involving themselves in the altercation at home plate, which Carlson and Posada had started.

The teams were calmed by umpires. Both Carlson and Posada were suspended three games, as of yesterday, and fined $3,000.
