Zambrano and Barrett decide to slap fight

Carlos Zambrano and Michael Barrett got into a fight in the dugout during the 5th inning of yesterday's game. Zambrano wasn't happy with Barrett's passed ball and subsequent errant throw that allowed a run. Of course I'm sure Big Z wouldn't have been so upset by Barrett's miscues had he not allowed six earned runs and a career high 13 hits in just five innings of work. To make matters worse, Barrett went into the clubhouse after Z and ended up getting a busted lip thanks to the burly right-hander. The cut on Barrett's lip was bad enough that he ended up in the hospital to get it taken care of.

My favorite part is when Barrett points up to the scoreboard as if to say "I'm not the one who gave up the 13 hits and 7 runs". Barrett has been making tons of mental mistakes lately so if one of the two combatants need to go, I hope it is Barrett. Even though Big Z hasn't been performing as well as usual, he's still much more valuable than Barrett.
