Ruckus Reaps 4-Game Suspensions
In an announcement today, the league informed <Carson Bayless:player#6595> of <Cooperstown:team#36> and <Andy Best:player#7809> of <Trenton:team#34> that they both had been suspended 4 games for fighting in a recent game.

The league president told them, "This type of aggressive behavior will not be tolerated in this league."

<Bayless:player#6595> wasn't happy with the length of his suspension. He thought he got the worst deal and told the league commissioner, "In any fight, whoever throws the first punch should get a more severe penalty. If I threw the first punch, I'd expect to get the most punishment. Whoever took the blow should get a lesser punishment."

His manager agreed with him and said something needs to be done about it. "<Bayless:player#6595> is right. The league needs to look at its policy and make sure the punishment fits the crime."

This year <Bayless:player#6595> has hit at a .256 clip with 12 RBIs, 2 home runs and 13 runs scored.

For the season <Best:player#7809> is 4-and-4 with 2 saves and a 3.63 ERA. He has given up 81 hits in 91.2 innings with 90 strikeouts.
