League Suspends Long and Wilson for Fisticuffs
Thursday, August 18th , 2044
After an intense confrontation, both the Angels Jeff Long and the AquaSox Stewart Wilson were handed their punishments today. The league commissioner's office issued suspensions for an on-the-field conflict that occurred at a recent Los Angeles (NYP)-Everett game. Jeff Long will miss 5 games, while Stewart Wilson was suspended for 3 games.
"Sometimes we go too far and have to pay the consequences," Jeff Long commented later. "Hopefully cooler heads will prevail the next time we play."
This year Long is hitting .284, produced 37 RBIs and 3 home runs, scored 59 times and gotten on base at a .375 rate.
