Menotti and Milch Suspended, Out 3 Games Tuesday, September 13th , 2044 There were a few hotheads at the Midland-Birmingham game at Security Bank Ballpark yesterday, but the cooler heads prevailed and kept fisticuffs to a minimum. It all started when Justin Menotti of the RockHounds and Jim Milch of the Barons 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. For the year Menotti is batting .174 with 2 home runs, 8 RBIs and 12 runs scored. To date this year in 0 starts, Milch has crafted a 1-1 mark with a 4.15 ERA. |
