You know they aren't sayin. Especially cause it's Bonds. But they got into it for some reason and Barry got all up in his face in the dugout. I'm waiting for SportCenter to some on right now. See if they have an update...

The dispute appeared to begin with Kent yelling at third baseman David Bell. Bonds became involved and as the argument escalated, he shoved Kent. Bonds and Kent had to be separated, and TV replays showed that trainer Stan Conte was holding back manager Dusty Baker.

Bonds has stopped talking to reporters.

Kent said the dispute was ''no big deal,'' and that he's had other altercations with Bonds in the six seasons they've been teammates.

''Add this to the half-dozen times we've done it before,'' Kent said.

''Barry and I have played together for five years,'' Kent said. ''If there is any dislike I don't think we'd be playing together. So much has been made between the relationship between Barry and me. We have a good relationship. We have a working relationship that I think works well on the field.

''I think we do a lot of good things together on the field for this team that benefit him and benefit me. I think if you guys try to create a dysfunctional relationship, that's a farce too, because that's not true.''

Baker refused to detail the scrum, saying: ''It's nobody's business. But sometimes those things happen.''

When asked specifically about Bonds and Kent, Baker said: ''It wasn't even between them. Know what I'm saying? Some guys got into it. It wasn't even between them.''

Last season, when Bonds set the single-season home run record with 73, Kent criticized Bonds' standoffish nature.
