Carlos Zambrano has apologized for starting a brawl during Venezuela's winter league series final.
The fight occurred Saturday during the third game of the series. Zambrano struck pitcher Mayckol Guaipe of the rival Caribes de Anzoategui after teammate Ezequiel Carrera of the Navegantes del Magallanes had been hit by a pitch.
Zambrano asked forgiveness of Venezuelans and the Caribes organization for the "very embarrassing incident." The Venezuelan League of Professional Baseball is investigating.
