MLB must implement a penalty for leaving the bench to join a melee.
MLB has been considering action to stop brawls for the last 20 years.
Worst of all, is your innocent description of Mr. Peavy's actions.
Mr. Peavy was the first person to cross the Cubs line of machismo.
Mr. Peavy snuck up behind his intended target and clamped down on him.
This may have led to injuries as bystanders stumbled over their bodies.
Others engaged in fighting may have been influenced by Mr. Peavy's actions.
Mr Peavy's actions deserve to be punished more severely than any other.
The Cubs manager, trying to protect Lee, could not control the rush of his teammates behind him.
Watch poor Lee, who you derile, run towards his teammates the minute things began to overheat.
Everything yesterday played out the way it has been sanctioned by MLB.
80% of the players didn't belong on the field.
MLB won't stop it.

This post proves beyond a doubt that you are certifiably nuts.
Peavy was ejected for tackling Lee to keep him from throwing more punches. He was just standing up for his buddy. I didn't say Peavy should not have been run, just that Zambrano was a worse offender, and he should have been dumped as well.
Lee threw a cheap sucker punch at Young. Poor Lee? What are you talking about?
Yeah, he took off running away as soon as he realized he was about to get his butt kicked.
80% of the players didn't belong on the field? It was a BENCH CLEARING BRAWL! I don't know how many you have seen in your born days, but they usually involve 100% of the players, the managers, coaches, bat boys, and ball girls (
I wish!).
Oh, and attention all
Cubs fans:
If an elderly couple (or anyone else for that matter) does not wish to participate in your silly little ritual of throwing back opponents home run balls, do not resort to assaulting them, harassing them, or knocking their caps off their heads. The behavior exhibited by that dumb blond twit in the bleachers today is just typical of the boorish behavior I have witnessed over the years from pasty-faced Cub fans here at Padres games.
Try to understand that the rest of the sporting world thinks your little tradition of throwing back a perfectly good souvenir is stupid and childish.
End of rant.
