4-Game Suspensions for Pearce-Zuniga Fight
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 <Manhattan HS Monarchs:team#158>-<Austin HS Anteaters:team#157> game at Ballpark of Manhattan HS. 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 <Manhattan HS:team#158>'s <Ryan Pearce:player#11081> and <Austin HS:team#157>'s <Jesus Zuniga:player#10954> from the game for their roles in starting the melee.

Today the players were notified by the league office that they had been suspended 4 games for violating league rules.

Currently Pearce is batting .185 with 1 home run, 1 RBIs and 6 runs scored.
