Madden and Wilkerson Suspended for Free-for-All
Thursday, May 7th, 1970
One player challenged the other with some angry words at the Rays-Flight game at Beacons Ballpark yesterday. There was some pushing and shoving -- then the dugouts emptied. There was a lot of scuffling, but no punches thrown. When order was finally restored and the dust settled, the umpires ejected Wilson HS's Micah Madden and Ft. Myers HS's Mike Wilkerson.
Now both antagonists will get some time off, courtesy of the league commissioner. They were suspended 3 games for inappropriate and aggressive behavior.
Currently Madden has 1 home run and a .274 batting average.
So far this season Wilkerson has a 1-0 record, 7 starts, 27 innings, 8 strikeouts and a 7.33 ERA.
