Baseball talk turns foul in Normal bar

NORMAL, Ill. — An argument over Chicago’s baseball teams turned foul for two fans who wound up in a weekend brawl at a central Illinois pizza shop.

Police say a White Sox fan and a Cubs fan were discussing baseball in Normal around 2 a.m. Sunday when the conversation soured.

Investigators say Sox fan James Falakos had been drinking when he pushed a Cubs fan into a window at a Domino’s Pizza restaurant, breaking the glass.

Falakos was charged with aggravated battery and released on $100 bond.

No telephone listing for Falakos could be found.

The Cubs fan was treated for lacerations at a nearby hospital and later released.
