Chicago Cubs Brawl in Dugout - Carlos Zambrano & Michael Barrett

There was a brawl during the Cubs game Friday, but it didn't clear the benches. Why? It was the Cubs fighting themselves, that's why! Here's more from Inside the Bay Area:
Chicago Cubs pitcher Carlos Zambrano and catcher Michael Barrett shoved each other in the dugout Friday, then got into it again in the clubhouse, and Barrett wound up going to a hospital.
The confrontations in the 8-5 loss to Atlanta came after the Braves had just scored five runs in the top of the fifth to make it 7-1. With runners on first and second during the rally, Barrett allowed a passed ball and threw wildly to third for an error that let a run score.
The two confronted each other before the bottom half of the inning but were separated, and Zambrano was sent to the clubhouse by manager Lou Piniella. Barrett went to the clubhouse and wound up with a split lip that was treated at a hospital.
