Rickett and Luna Suspended, Out 2 Games Monday, August 4th , 2064 There were a few hotheads at the Royal Oak-Surrey game at Surrey Field yesterday, but the cooler heads prevailed and kept fisticuffs to a minimum. It all started when Ryan Rickett of the Leprechauns and Ricky Luna of the Thunderbirds 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. This season, Rickett has hit at a .312 clip and produced 63 RBI, 19 home runs and 55 runs. So far this season, Luna has a 1-0 record, 0 starts, 37.1 innings, 35 strikeouts and a 7.71 ERA. |
