DAYTON - Fifteen players and both managers were ejected, a fan was sent to the hospital, and one player was arrested after a 10-minute bench-clearing brawl in the first inning between the Peoria Chiefs and Dayton Dragons on Thursday night in the Class A Midwest League.
Peoria Chief pitcher Julio Castillo was arrested and charged with felonious assault for allegedly throwing a ball that hit the fan during the fight. Video from the game shows Castillo throwing the ball angrily but doesn't show where the ball landed.
Castillo was arraigned by video from the Montgomery County jail on Friday and ordered held on $50,000 bond. Dayton Municipal Judge Carl Henderson also required Castillo to surrender his passport. Dressed in jail blues, Castillo stood with his arms folded behind his back and showed little emotion. He was flanked by his attorney and an interpreter. Castillo, from the Dominican Republic, said he has been in the United States for a month and has been living with teammates in Peoria.
"This charge is a result of outlandish and inexcusable conduct by a professional baseball player," Montgomery County Prosecutor Mathias Heck Jr. said in a statement.
