I just watched Prince Fielder attack Manny Parra in the dugout, shoving the young starter to the bench and then lunging at him a 2nd time....no details yet on what started the altercation, but Fielder had to be restrained by several Brewers while Parra sat on the bench as if comatose....with the Brewers down 5 games, just a week after the Miller Massacre, and behind 6-2 at the moment to the Reds, are they coming undone???

I think a lot of people are victimizing Parra. For all we know, it could be his fault the fight broke out.

It must have worked as motivation, just like when Zambrano decked his catcher last year when the Cubs were skidding... Since the incident, the Brewers have rattled off seven straight.

Cubs have, admittedly, handed the Padres their lunch this season. There's no such thing as a gimme win in Major League Baseball. Even a Cubs fan has to realize that.
