Suspensions Handed Out for Bench-Clearing Brawl Thursday, April 22nd, 2027 There were a few hotheads at the San Angelo-Grand Canyon game at Heartland Kettlecorn Stadium yesterday, but the cooler heads prevailed and kept fisticuffs to a minimum. It all started when Jayden Punchardon of the Mustangs and Lou Horton of the ValleyCats 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 3 games for inappropriate on-field behavior. To date this year Punchardon is batting .208 with 2 home runs. |
