Saturday’s incident between Mississippi State baseball and Georgia, which resulted in numerous ejections, has also resulted in several player suspensions for Sunday’s game.
Things got ugly in the eighth inning of Mississippi State’s 3-2 loss at Dudy Noble Field when Georgia runner Dillon Carter attempted to score a run from first base on a double by Tre Phillips. He slid head-first to home, where he was tagged out by MSU catcher Johnny Long. Multiple players from both benches entered the playing field after Long stood over Carter, resulting in 11 player ejections.
As a result, 11 players were ejected from the game, including star right fielder Dakota Jordan, who leads the team in batting average, home runs, and RBIs. The umpires informed the coaches which players were ejected but never publicly announced the ejections.
The SEC announced suspensions for players stemming from the benches clearing on Sunday morning. Long and third baseman Logan Kohler were the two MSU players suspended. Gonzalez, catcher/outfielder Henry Hunter and pitcher Daniel Padysak were among the Georgia players suspended.
“The Southeastern Conference has announced one-game suspensions for student-athletes for Sunday’s Georgia at Mississippi State baseball game, following an incident between the schools on Saturday. During the eighth inning of Saturday’s game between Georgia and Mississippi State, a play resulted in players from both teams converging at home plate. After video review during the game, players from both teams were ejected and subject to suspension.
“After further video review of the incident Saturday night and Sunday morning, and in consultation with the NCAA’s security-rules editor, it was determined that the following student-athletes remain suspended for Sunday’s game between Georgia and Mississippi State.”
