Ruckus Reaps 2-Game Suspensions Friday, July 21st , 2051 Bad blood could be brewing between the Whitecaps and the Canadians. In yesterday's contest at Kawartha Lakes Stadium, Sault Ste. Marie's Kung-zheng Kim and Sarnia's Roger Pearce caused the benches to empty when they went toe-to-toe against one another. Only Kim and Pearce were ejected by the umpires. Upon hearing that the two players had been suspended 2 games each by the league office, harsh comments came from both clubhouses. League officials have warned both organizations about the consequences of premeditated retaliation. This season, Kim is swinging the bat at a .276 pace. He has hit 18 home runs and scored 36 times, while driving in 65. His on-base percentage is .338 and he has played in 88 games. To date this year, Pearce has saved 0 games while tossing 6.2 innings. He has a 4.05 ERA, fanned 4 batters and made 5 relief appearances. |
