Video from the incident shows a Los Angeles Angels fan on the ground. A bloodied supporter of the Anaheim franchise was escorted out of the stadium.

The Dodgers have yet to comment on the incident, according to ABC 7.

The Angels won the first game of the rivalry series 4-0, before losing 4-0 to the Dodgers Tuesday.

The Angels won Wednesday's matchup 3-2 at Angel Stadium.

Monday's fight brought back memories of San Francisco Giants fan Bryan Stow. The 42-year-old was beaten by two men during a 2011 skirmish in the Dodger Stadium parking lot. That fight happened on opening day. Stow was in a coma for nine months. He was later awarded almost $18 million in 2014 by a Los Angeles jury, according to the Los Angeles Times. The Dodgers were liable for $13.9 million of that cost, according to the Los Angeles Times.

A Dodgers fan was stabbed and later died in 2013 a few blocks away from AT&T Park in San Francisco. That argument started after comments were exchanged regarding his Dodgers apparel, according to the Times.

The series wraps up at 7:07 p.m. Thursday at Angel Stadium. The Dodgers (52-28) trail only the Houston Astros (53-26) for the best record in baseball.
