looked like fielder was yelling at him for something
and parra threw his jacket down on the bench, looked like the sleeve popped up and hit prince in the face. prince shoved him into the dugout bench, then 2-hand pushed him in the face, then it got broken up.

Manny Parra, on the other hand, is a 25 year-old buck from California. I bet he’s the equivalent of Cosmo Kramer tanning on the roof.

Look at Prince Fielder's size
Now, he’s pretty pissed right now. Instead of thinking to himself “I’ll wait until the clubhouse to unleash my unearthly, fat rolls of strength on Parra” he got it started right in the dugout.
Would you honestly want to sit a guy who’s that pissed, right now? I’m pretty sure he has his own gravitational pull.

Brewers Infighting Tonight in Cinci
Prince Fielder and Manny Parra got in a shoving match in the Breer dugout tonight. Parra was taken out for a pinch hitter and was seen in the dugout muttering to himself, and then he threw his glove. Fielder than came up to him and shoved him very hard, twice. The rest of the Brewers had to separate the players. Frustration appears to be spilling over for the Brew Crew, who trail tonight’s game 6-2 in the bottom of the 7th in Cinci.
One day, the dream will come true.

Just looked at the film again.
Looked like what I said earlier was spot on. Parra was pissed about getting pulled, Fielder started walking with him down the dugout bench, kind of jawing at him, but not bad. Then Parra goes to throw his warmup jacket on the bench and held on to it, with the sleeve coming up and hitting Fielder.
Cue Fielder going batshit.

At the risk of being flamed,
I am a Brewers fan sympathizer. How bad was it when this happened in the Cubs dugout last year. Bad press, bad for the team, bad for baseball, bad taste in my mouth about it. However, picking a fight with Fielder (intentionally or not) is not a good idea for 95% of all MLB players. Don’t like their chances!

The upper part of Kane County had a Tornado warning and there was a tornado sighting.
I know safety comes first and foremost…. I just hope they dont call it. But they will make the right call.

It's..
A condo building actually. Some of the unit owners rent out their places, but there’s really no standard rate. I’m renting from a unit owner… when I was looking to move into the building I saw rent rates from $1,300-$1,700/mo for a 1 bedroom. How heavily renovated and whether it had a north or south view seemed to influence it…

The irony...
Is that there are plenty of buildings on the north side that have smaller, un-renovated units without great views for more money per month. I lived on the south side before moving up here, and was kind of shocked by the rates myself.

Walking down Waveland, there were listings for an apartment building on Waveland. You can see this building on TV behind the LF bleachers every game. Listings were for a studio up to a 2 bedroom apartment. They were asking $1500-$1600/mo for the studio. Higher for the 1 and 2 bedroom apartments

That usually leads towards being a jackass when your teammates mess up. Not comparing Prince to these guys, but Jordan always used to get pissed at his teammates. Once punched one of them in the face during practice.
Some of these guys care so much that they get carried away at times. Zambrano is another example.

I heard that Parra mentioned to Fielder in the dugout that he
should have fielded a ball hit towards him. Instead it went through for a single.
I think another Brewer pitcher (Villanueva?) also once gave Fielder a dirty look for doing that.

Reposted.
Parra was pissed about getting pulled, Fielder started walking with him down the dugout bench, kind of jawing at him, but not bad. Then Parra goes to throw his warmup jacket on the bench and held on to it, with the sleeve coming up and hitting Fielder.
Cue Fielder going batshit. He pushed Parra to the bench then two-handed pushed him in the face, then they were split up.

Probably the Fielder/Parra fight means the Brewers are falling apart.
But remember, the Zambrano/Barrett fight last year was one of the precursors to the Cubs’ run to the division title.
Of course, they’ve got Ned Yost, and we have Lou Piniella. Nuff said.

Question..
If/When this game resumes, will ESPN cover the rest of it?

I think yes, there's only so much Sportscenter anyone can take.
