Cramer and Herrera Suspended 8 Games
Sometimes on the baseball diamond disparaging words are uttered in anger and lead to more than what the players bargained for. That's what happened at yesterday's <Wheeling Passways:team#56>-<Toledo Ducks:team#51> game at Engines Ballpark. What started off as a war of words ended up a tag team match as both clubs rushed on the field to defend their honor. When the umpires sorted it all out, they ejected <Wheeling:team#56>'s <Steve Cramer:player#2564> and <Toledo:team#51>'s <Anastasio Herrera:player#3196> from the game for their roles in starting the melee.

Today the players were notified by the league office that they had been suspended 8 games for violating league rules.

This year <Cramer:player#2564> is batting .309 with 3 home runs. He has scored 24 runs and driven in 20.

This season <Herrera:player#3196> has logged 30 relief appearances, 50.1 IP, 74 strikeouts, and a 1.61 ERA. His W-L mark is 4 wins and 2 losses, and he has 2 saves.
