League Punishes Pair for Fighting Monday, June 8th , 2048 Yesterday at NBT Bank Stadium Mike Buchanan and Mike Capers got into each other's space and then into each other's face. They began to grapple and fell to the ground. That's when it boiled over into a full-fledged bench-clearing tussle between the Syracuse Chiefs and Las Vegas 51s. Reason finally prevailed as the umpires restored order. After much discussion, only the two major combatants were ejected from the game. Today the league office notified the ballclubs that Buchanan will have to sit out 3 while Capers would be given a 6-game suspension for their roles in the brawl. Thus far in 2048 Buchanan is hitting .242 with 1 home run, 4 RBIs, 15 runs scored and has compiled a .324 OBP. So far this year Capers has nailed down no saves. His won-lost record is 1-4 with a 4.47 ERA. |
