Colt 45’s P Hilton Smith and Rockies DH Joey Gallo were each ejected in the 3rd and suspended 6 games. Smith hit Gallo in the back after homering in the 1st, leading to a brawl. Harper had homered in the AB leading up it.
The Rockies have recalled Johnny Lindell. The Colt 45’s have called up Dave Brown.
@tabletopmania @RuthODay @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7
Hilton was apparently trying to express himself...
@YusufToropov @RuthODay @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7
Really a disappointing game. Smith was set up nicely to increase his WLB win lead against one of the worst teams in the league. Harper showed a little too much emotion and Gallo had to pay.

There will be a 1948 League -- two leagues, four divisions. NL, AL, NNL, NAL, all teams integrated. 28 teams. Stats will carry over, I think. But there would have to be some exceptions to account for folks like Mays. Case by case, I guess.

The fun part about a year 2 for these types of projects is that you can modify year 1 and make the sequel even better.
@YusufToropov @tabletopmania @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7
Or they could advocate a return to Roman numerals: no Knights hitter can go “oh-for” if there’s no zero.
@RuthODay @tabletopmania @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7
That's a very creative solution.
@YusufToropov @tabletopmania @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7
It only takes a small rethink, kind of like switching to the metric system.
For example, Yogi Berra would have a career slash of:
CCLXXXV/CCCXLVIII/MDLXXXII
If this idea flies, I predict that Nolan will be borrowing a sentiment from Roy Scheider’s Brody in Jaws: “We’re going to need a bigger scorecard.”
