9 Jackson State, Prairie View A&M Baseball Players Suspended After Fight on Video

The Jackson State and Prairie View A&M baseball teams learned the consequences of their benches-clearing brawl from Saturday's game.

Sam Sklar of the Mississippi Clarion Ledger reported Tuesday that the Southwestern Athletic Conference suspended nine players. Six of the players are from Jackson State, while the other three are from Prairie View A&M.

The SWAC did not publicly announce the names of the players suspended. It fined each school $25,000.

The fight happened after Trenton Bush's walk-off hit gave Prairie View A&M a 7-6 victory. As the Panthers started to celebrate on the field, Jackson State left fielder Davione Hull shoved a player.

That set off a benches-clearing scrum (3:28:30), and video also captured Jackson State outfielder/pitcher Arjun Huerta grabbing Bush's bat and throwing it into the crowd.

As Sklar noted, the stadium's public address announcer could be heard saying: "All fans on the field will be banned. If you are a fan or a parent on the field, you will be banned. All players to the dugout."

The two teams played again Sunday with Prairie View A&M winning 9-5 to take the series.

The conference rivals are not scheduled to face each other again this season.
