The Baltimore Orioles’ Manny Machado now has free seafood for life after partaking in a brawl between his team and the Kansas City Royals Tuesday.
For those who missed it, Machado took a 99-mph fastball in the back Tuesday and decided to take retribution into his own hands by charging the mound:

MLB won’t like it, but Baltimore restaurant Jimmy’s Famous Seafood sure did.
Here’s how the lifetime offer came about:

Call it the start of a new trend, as just last month a Texas BBQ joint offered Rougned Odor free BBQ for life after he slugged Jose Bautista in the jaw.
Machado undoubtedly has a fine and suspension on the way, but he has somewhere to go for good eats while he misses time.
