Cincinnati ? The Reds’ new home turned into Great American Brawl Park for the second time in a week, with Paul Wilson getting the worst of it.

Wilson held Sammy Sosa to a harmless single in seven strong innings, then was bloodied and ejected during a fight that will have an impact far beyond Cincinnati’s 3-1 victory Thursday over the Chicago Cubs.

“I’ve got a question: Didn’t they just get into a fight a couple days ago?” Cubs manager Dusty Baker said. “It looks like they’ve got some bad blood brewing with some other people.

“All I know is we’re not the club to have bad blood with because we’ve got some guys that can hurt you with that ball. So I don’t suggest too many people get into some knockdown war with us.”

The Reds and the Phillies squared off last Friday in a much nastier fight. Sean Casey and Adam Dunn were the two Reds ejected, and they await punishment from baseball.

Wilson got into it with reliever Kyle Farnsworth, who threw a fastball inside as he tried to put down a sacrifice bunt with a man on first and the Reds up 2-1 in the seventh inning.

“It’s a 2-1 game and he’s trying to bunt and make an out,” Farnsworth said. “I’m not trying to hit him. He came at me, and I just did what I had to do. It kind of surprised me.”

Wilson wheeled after the pitch flew past and yelled at Farnsworth, starting an exchange that escalated as they drifted toward each other. Finally, Farnsworth tossed off his glove and Wilson dropped his bat.

Farnsworth tackled Wilson with a right-shoulder takedown, then threw a wild punch that missed its mark.

Expos 5, Pirates 2

Pittsburgh — Brad Wilkerson and Edwards Guzman drove in runs in an infrequent multirun inning for Montreal, and the Expos finished their demanding 3 1/2-week trip by beating Pittsburgh.

The Expos stopped a season-worst six-game losing streak, winning for only the eighth time on a 22-game trip that covered 11,310 miles, 25 days and ranged from Seattle to San Juan, their part-time home. They play in Montreal on Friday for the first time since May 25.

Wilkerson had a sacrifice fly and Guzman added an RBI single in a go-ahead, two-run seventh inning against Pittsburgh’s bullpen, only the second multirun inning for the Expos in 70 innings, or nearly eight games.
