Moore and Clifton Fight, Get Suspended Tuesday, August 24th, 2066 One player challenged the other with some angry words at the Blue Jays-Red Sox game at Rogers Centre 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 Toronto's Dave Moore and Boston's Jack Clifton. Now both antagonists will get some time off, courtesy of the league commissioner. They were suspended 3 games for inappropriate and aggressive behavior. Moore is hitting .234 this year with 19 home runs, 62 RBIs and 72 runs scored. He has 96 hits in 411 at-bats, 92 walks and a .385 on-base percentage. Moore has played in 124 games. This year Clifton has gone 5-4 with an ERA of 4.21 and has 66 strikeouts in 62 innings. |
