There were 15 players and both managers ejected from the game. The game was delayed by an hour while the two teams were in contact with the MiLB Commissioners office and the Home Clubs because in order to have completed the game (which was only in the first inning) they would have had to use pitchers as position players. Neither the Cubs nor Reds wanted that to happen, so they had an emergency teleconference with the commissioner who agreed to lift the suspensions for the rest of the game, but will review the tapes and hand down suspensions and fines. I am thinking Castillo's baseball career is probably over....

Heck, Castillo could be deported after a stay in jail.
Castillo was arraigned by video from the Montgomery County jail on Friday and ordered held on bond. Dayton Municipal Judge Carl Henderson also required Castillo, who is from the Dominican Republic, to give up his passport.
Quote:
If convicted, Castillo would face up to eight years in prison and a $15,000 fine.
Dressed in jail blues, he stood with his arms folded behind his back and showed little emotion. He was flanked by his attorney and an interpreter. Castillo said he has been in the United States for a month and has been living with teammates in Peoria.
I really don't think we'll see Sandberg managing in the big leagues any time soon.
