CHICAGO -- Tadahito Iguchi hit a grand slam and a two-run drive and the Cubs-White Sox rivalry boiled over in a melee that led to four ejections.
The Cubs' Michael Barrett punched A.J. Pierzynski in the jaw after a home-plate collision between the two catchers in the second inning and the benches emptied.
Freddy Garcia (7-1) won his seventh straight decision -- the White Sox won 7-0 -- allowing eight hits in eight shutout innings. He was backed by three double plays against a Cubs team that has lost 17 of 21.
Rich Hill (0-4), still searching for his first major league win, gave up five hits and seven runs in four-plus innings, while issuing five walks.

Yankees 5, Mets 4, 11 innings
NEW YORK -- Pinch-hitter Andy Phillips lined an RBI single in the 11th inning to lift the Yankees to an improbable win in the Subway Series.
Johnny Damon hustled to beat a double-play relay that capped a four-run rally in the ninth inning against Mets closer Billy Wagner.
Phillips, hitting only .174, delivered a two-out single off Jorge Julio (1-2) after Miguel Cairo drew a leadoff walk and stole two bases in the 11th.
Mariano Rivera (2-3) pitched two scoreless innings to get the win.
Pedro Martinez tossed seven shutout innings, and Carlos Delgado and Cliff Floyd homered for the Mets. Martinez struck out eight and allowed four hits.

Dodgers 8, Angels 4
LOS ANGELES -- Pinch-hitter J.D. Drew's 150th career homer leading off the seventh drove in the go-ahead run for the streaking Dodgers.
The Dodgers won by scoring seven runs in their final three at-bats.
The win was the 11th in 14 games for the NL club, which moved a season-best three games over .500. The loss was the fourth straight and 16th in 21 games for the Angels, who dropped a season-high nine games below .500.
Drew hit a 1-2 pitch from Scot Shields (1-3) into the right-field bullpen to snap a 4-4 tie.
