The Brewers plan to handle Wednesday's incident with Nyjer Morgan internally. Morgan incited a benches-clearing incident Wednesday after jawing with Cardinals' right-hander Chris Carpenter following a swinging strikeout. No punches were thrown, but the eccentric outfielder later directed some tweets at Albert Pujols by addressing him as "Alberta." The Brewers likely aren't pleased and Morgan has worn out his welcome in the past, but it's not known whether he'll sit out a game as a form of punishment.

Nyjer Morgan was ejected from Wednesday's game in the ninth inning after shouting at Cardinals' pitcher Chris Carpenter. Carpenter struck out Morgan and immediately turned his back, but for some reason, Morgan started yelling in Carp's direction and even took the chewing tobacco out of his mouth and threw it at him. Benches emptied, but order was quickly restored. Tony Plush has endeared himself to the Brewers fan base this season with his antics, but his act is going to wear thin once he inevitably starts to struggle.
