Battlekings Sakai and Disaster Campos Suspended for Fight Wednesday, August 19th, 2026 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 Naperville Battlekings-Port Royal Disaster game at Constellation 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 Naperville's Naohiro Sakai and Port Royal's Ricardo Campos from the game for their roles in starting the melee. Today the players were notified by the league office that they had been suspended 6 games for violating league rules. A look at his current stats shows Sakai with a .253 average, 8 home runs, 48 RBIs and 38 runs scored. He has played in 76 games. This season Campos has earned 2 saves, tossed 8 innings, made 11 relief appearances, fanned 9 hitters and posted an ERA of 4.50. Teams are hitting .207 against him. |
