The type B blood has an antigen on the red cells identifying them as B type cells. The type A blood of the recipient contains antibodies that bind to B type antigens. These antibodies will cause the red cells of the blood in the transfusion to stick together forming solid lumps in the blood, preventing it from flowing.

Why are blood types a and b incompatible?
Blood types A and B are incompatible because a type A person has naturally occurring Anti-B in his blood and a type B person has naturally occurring Anti-A. Thus a type A person can not receive blood from a type B person because the naturally occurring anti-A would destroy the type A person's red cells. The converse is true for a type B person who can not receive type A blood since the Anti-B found in the type A blood would destroy the type B person's red cells.
