The Cubs threw no punches. Manager Lou Piniella might have kicked an umpire, though. And it was more of the same for the Cubs. This time, they fell 5-3 to the Braves on Saturday and lost their sixth straight. One day after Carlos Zambrano and Michael Barrett fought, Piniella got ejected after Angel Pagan got caught stealing third base in the eighth inning. The manager kicked dirt and tossed his cap several times. Question is: Did he kick third-base umpire Mark Wegner, too? Crew chief Bruce Froemming said yes. Piniella said no. "He made physical contact with the third-base umpire," Froemming told a pool reporter. "He made physical contact with his foot, and he kicked dirt on (Wegner) several times, and the rest was show-and-tell."
