Most underrated Red Sox brawl of all time

Does anyone remember that brawl at home in 1998 against the Indians? I remember this game like it happened yesterday. Jarrett Wright was the pitcher. He beaned Darren "pucker up" Lewis who decided to charge the mound after some choice words were exchanged. I think it was the next inning that Rheal Cormier beaned Jim Thome in retaliation, who also charged the mound. My favorite parts of this brawl were:
1) Seeing Nomar Garciaparra, John Valentin, and Jason Varitek all beat up an Indians player at once (I forget who!) after he had made an as& of himself.
2) The fact that Cormier and Thome were best friends, and drove home together to their hotels after the game.
