Minor League Brawl: Nick West Isn’t Surprised

I have hesitated to comment on the minor league brawl that everyone seems to be talking about because it really does not involve the Wizards or Fort Wayne players. Plus, the actions of the individuals are horrendous and downright shameful. Baseball doesn’t need any more negative attention.

I personally hope that Julio Castillo, the pitcher who foolishly chucked the ball toward the dugout and instead hit a fan, never plays professional baseball again. Yes, I think it is that bad. If we can ban Pete Rose for his foolish actions, we can ban a Low-A never-will-be for assaulting fans.

In any regard, local Wizards beat writer, Nick West has his thoughts on the incident. He isn’t too surprised that it happened between Dayton and Peoria.
