3 Suspects Charged in Tomato Case

Three over zealous Indian fans charged in the tomato assault of Hub Strange. Hub immediately asked for a trade from Cleveland where fans have been less than friendly toward him. He has since dropped assault charges against the unruly fans, but the hanging judge in the case sentenced them to 15 days jail, 81 days community service as court food only vendors at the stadium and their season tickets forfeited to orphanage services for the season. "This should warn other unruly fans that the law will intercede and take away their stadium game watching privileges." said the judge with consternation. Defense lawyers immediately filed for an appeal stating the punishment was too harsh.

Cleveland management immediately received several offers upon hearing of the situation, but nothing definite until the Good Will stepped in and offered the unwanted and refurbished Bart Ross. Cleveland's advanced scouting liked Ross so much they parlayed with management to throw in Courtney Haynes to make the deal more enticing. Management agreed though half heartedly, as Haynes was well on his way of becoming the much needed 4th or 5th starter of the future.
