Boise Suspensions Served and a Blast From the Past

In today's daily dish, there is a note on the Boise Hawks suspensions for this past week's brawl. Here is an excerpt:

For their actions in Everett last week, three Boise players will be serving suspensions this week. The Hawks are away at Spokane for a three game series, and take on Salem-Keizer at home from July 28-31. Infielder Elvin Puello started his three-game suspension Monday for his part in the benches-clearing incident at Everett on July 21. Alfred Joseph, who's batting .354, and righthander Jose Pina also have to serve three-game suspensions for separate incidents. On July 21, Joseph was upset about a tag at first, whipped off his helmet and hit AquaSox first baseman Joe White in the head with the helmet. The benches cleared and Joseph was ejected. Pina was ejected and since suspended after plunking outfielder Greg Halman on July 19.

For what it's worth, there is also another Blast From the Past moment in the Daily Dish for me. Joe Gaetti is a guy I faced in high school at Raleigh Millbrook High School.

One story I remember about Gaetti involved my senior year when my high school, Durham Riverside which was 13-0 at the time, and just moved to #1 in the state went to face Millbrook. If memory serves, my school took a 2 run lead into the 7th and sent our closer to the mound. With 2 men on, one Joe Gaetti came to the plate and homered to left center on a walkoff game winner.
