C. Young (6-3) - 3.0 IP 0 H 0 ER 2 BB 2 K 2.26 ERA. 56 pitches, 36 strikes.

A wild afternoon at Wrigley Field, as Chris Young was one of four players ejected in the top of the fourth inning following a bench-clearing altercation. Young had not allowed a base hit before being tossed. A 1-2 pitch from Young came inside on Chicago's Derrek Lee, hitting him on the wrist. Lee had words for Young on his way to first base. Young pointed at first as he responded verbally and Lee stepped out of the baseline towards Young, throwing a punch that did not connect. Young responded with a right hand that also missed and the dugouts emptied.

The Padres would grab victory on a home run in the top of the eighth inning, a 1-0 decision in a game where both teams had just two hits.

After the game Young insisted the plunking was unintentional.

"I'm not going to talk about it, but I didn't try to hit him and it doesn't have anything to do with anything that happened in the past," Young said. "I wish I could have stayed in the game. I would have liked to have been out there to contribute to the win more."

San Antonio's modest two game winning streak ended on Saturday with a 4-2 loss to Midland. Will Venable was 1-3 for the Missions. The game was called because of rain in the bottom of the seventh with the bases loaded and nobody out.
