Emotions run very high on the field as the players are in competitive mode. Sometimes they reach a boiling point, and chaos ensues. Every team goes through some sort of bench-clearing incident a year, but not often to all-out brawls happen. Like every team, the Chicago Cubs have seen their share of benches-clearing events happen.

Fights start in various ways, which can be the result of one thing in the game just escalating quickly or a series of events throughout leading to a volcanic eruption. It all usually ends the same way, with players getting ejected and further exchange of words in the form of yelling while being restrained.
