Quebec-Kansas City Free-for-All Gets 2-Game Suspensions
Friday, May 28th, 2027
There were a few hotheads at the Quebec-Kansas City game at Lucky 7 Ballpark yesterday, but the cooler heads prevailed and kept fisticuffs to a minimum. It all started when Shunso Fukuda of the Armada and Loeck Jurgens of the Tornadoes 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 2 games for inappropriate on-field behavior.
Fukuda is batting at a .283 pace this season, picking up 54 hits in 191 at-bats with 15 home runs, 31 RBIs and 27 runs scored.
This year Jurgens has compiled a 3-3 record with a 5.96 ERA.
