Maybe It's the Manager's Fault

Blue Jays manager and former Mets backup catcher, John Gibbons, had an altercation with pitcher Ted Lilly.
Gibbons you may remember challenged Shea Hillenbrand to punch him in the face.
Ted Lilly may have taken him up on the offer although reports that Gibbons had a bloody nose seem to be untrue.
Lilly was staked to an early 8-0 lead but was yanked from the game in the third inning as he seemed poised to give it all back.
Lilly and Gibbons argued on the mound. And when Lilly finally left the field Gibbons followed him to the clubhouse. Out of the view of cameras a scuffle ensued as all the players from the dugout scrambled underneath to help break it up.
Both sides say they are sorry and just got carried away.
