Manglorkar and Butlin Fight, Get Suspended Saturday, August 7th, 2027 There were a few hotheads at the Georgia-Maple game at The Death Star yesterday, but the cooler heads prevailed and kept fisticuffs to a minimum. It all started when Abalendu Manglorkar of the Grays and Dylan Butlin of the Marauders 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. So far this season, Manglorkar has recorded a .358 batting average with 133 hits, 19 home runs, 58 RBIs, 70 runs scored and a .388 OBP. In 23 starts this season Butlin has chalked up a 12-8 record and a 5.23 ERA. |
