Big scare for Astros wife after Game 2

(10/23/05 - CHICAGO, IL) (KTRK) -- One of the Astros' wives was the victim of an ugly incident at US Cellular Field Sunday night.

White Sox officials say a man hit Patty Biggio in the back of the head with his open hand. Security immediately removed him and Mrs. Biggio remained in her seat. We're told security talked with her and her husband, Craig, and they declined to press charges.

The White Sox are calling it unacceptable, and their team manager says he plans to personally apologize to Craig Biggio.

"On behalf of the White Sox organization, it's something we could control," said White Sox Manager Ozzie Guillen. "I think the family is a big part of my life, especially the kids, and when that happens in your ballpark, you feel a little disappointed."

Law enforcement here in Houston is making sure what happened in Chicago doesn't happen here. Click here for Stephanie Guadian's report on security at Minute Maid Park.
