The Phillies bullpen coughed up another lead. Then, things really boiled over in the clubhouse after the game.
Kevin Kouzmanoff hit a go-ahead homer off Brett Myers in the ninth inning, one of two Myers allowed in the inning, and the Padres beat Philadelphia 4-3 on Saturday night to hand the slumping Phillies their fourth straight loss.
After the game, Myers got into a shouting match with a reporter and had to be restrained by teammate Pat Burrell.
When Myers was asked about the two home runs, he said they were really "just pop ups."
A reporter from the Philadelphia Inquirer questioned whether Myers really thought they were pop ups, and Myers got angry.
