Derrek Lee is a first baseman in Major League Baseball who has played for the Chicago Cubs, San Diego Padres and the Florida Marlins.
On June 16, 2007, during a game against the San Diego Padres, Derrek Lee was involved in a bench-clearing brawl. In the fourth inning of the game, Padres pitcher Chris Young threw a pitch near Lee's head, hitting him in the wrist. While walking to first base, he and Young were chatting and then walked towards each other. A few seconds later, Lee threw a punch at Young, who threw a punch back, leading to the bench-clearing brawl.
While Lee was being restrained, Padres pitcher Jake Peavy grabbed Lee to try and lure him away from the area, but Cubs hitting coach Gerald Perry grabbed Peavy by the neck and threw him onto the ground. In the end, Lee, Young, Peavy and Perry were ejected.
