ICYMI: Wild brawl breaks out between fans during Chicago Cubs vs. Chicago White Sox game in the Wrigley Field bleachers
In a weird incident, two Chicago Cubs fans rooting for the same team got involved in an insane brawl during Tuesday night's game between the Cubs and the Chicago White Sox. The video of the fight went viral almost immediately on the internet. Baseball fights are an inextricable aspect of the game's history and drama. Massive brawls, in particular, have been increasingly regular in recent years. Skirmishes between rival teams and spectators are widespread. However, conflicts amongst fans of the same team are unheard of.
Wondering what caused the brawl among two Cubs fans? No one really knows. It appeared some Cubs fans were disappointed in on-field action, and two of them broke into an uncontrollable fight, leading to a mad scene.

The Chicago White Sox won the game. Well, the Chicago Cubs did lead Tuesday's match, but in bleacher brawls not runs scored! The White Sox beat the Cubs 3-1 thanks to Tim Anderson's home run and José Abreu's two great plays at first base.
