CHICAGO (AP) — Screaming Cubs starter Carlos Zambrano had to be separated from teammate Derrek Lee in the dugout, and the Chicago White Sox beat their crosstown rivals 6-0 Friday for their 10th straight win.

Jake Peavy (7-5) allowed three hits over seven innings, Carlos Quentin hit his fourth homer in four games, and the White Sox matched their longest winning streak in 34 years.

But all that was overshadowed by the confrontation in the visitor’s dugout following the White Sox’s four-run first inning.

Zambrano (3-6) screamed as he walked down the dugout steps past Lee and stormed toward the other end. Lee appeared to yell something, and as Zambrano headed back toward him, manager Lou Piniella, pitching coach Larry Rothschild, and bench coach Alan Trammell stepped between them.
