 | Bad Behavior Costs Morgan and Wunderlich Tuesday, September 25th, 2012: There were a few hotheads at the Bethesda-Penzance game at Hornets Field yesterday, but the cooler heads prevailed and kept fisticuffs to a minimum. It all started when Jerry Morgan of the Hornets and Soren Wunderlich of the Pirates apparently exchanged some verbal unpleasantries and rushed at one another and began wrestling on the ground. Both benches emptied, but didn't get involved other than a little shoving. Order was quickly restored, the two instigators were ejected by the umpires and the game continued. The league office took quick action and today announced that both players would be suspended 5 games for inappropriate on-field behavior. This season Morgan is hitting .217 with 3 home runs. Thus far this season, Wunderlich has tossed 106.1 innings in 9 starts, fanned 103 batters, walked 47 and put up a 3.72 ERA with 3 wins and 8 losses. |   |
