Jose Bautista getting punched in the face ranks in MLB's best 5 brawls ever

These guys know how to throw down.

Sunday we caught one of the best baseball brawls in recent memory.

Nolan Ryan's beatdown of Robin Ventura still ranks at No. 1 all-time, but here's the rest of FanBuzz's top five fights on the diamond ever.

No. 2: Odor vs. Bautista

The punch to Jose Bautista takes things up a notch, as does the secondary brawl that takes place in the background with more punches thrown. Don't miss Josh Donaldson take a nasty punch to the jaw in the background as well.

No. 3: Barrett vs. Pierzynski

What should Michael Barrett do when A.J. Pierzynski shows him who's boss at the plate? Catch him with a vicious hook to cause an all-out melee around home plate.

No. 4: A-Rod vs. Varitek

One of the defining moments of the Red Sox-Yankees rivalry is Jason Varitek palming A-Rod's face as the two teams go at it.

No. 5: Marichal vs. Roseboro

He got hit with a BAT! While this fight doesn't go on for long, and the team pretty much stays out of the brawl, the fact that someone was hit with a bat is absolutely insane.

Honorary mention:

Another run-out with guys pushing and shoving, but nothing really escalates other than Pedro Martinez shoving the elderly Don Zimmer to the ground.
