Forget the Brewers not like the opponents from time to time. They can't even stand each other. In last night's loss the Reds, after pitcher Manny Parra had gotten hit up for six runs in two innings, he was replaced by a pinch hitter (in the seventh inning). While in the dugout, Parra and Prince Fielder seemed to having words as they walked along, Fielder suddenly attacking Parra, shoving the left-handed pitcher down to the bench, then striking him in the head. After the game, manager Ned Yost said it more like a family dispute that happens from time to time, playing down the incident. Fielder had no comment regarding his assault on his teammate. Parra as much as said the incident was no big deal and would prefer to concentrate on his next start.
