League Suspends Casillas and Desmond for Fisticuffs Friday, July 30th, 2021 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 Syracuse Storm-Grim Reapers game at Storm Park. 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 Syracuse's Esteban Casillas and Grim's Mike Desmond 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. So far this year Casillas has 1 home run and a .211 batting average. This year Desmond has compiled a 1-0 record with a 0.73 ERA in 0 starts. |
