Walkers news: May 7 -- Coke gets five games for fighting; TC pitcher will sit for six
St. Louis right fielder Manuel Coke will sit for five games after he helped incite a bench-clearing brawl after he charged the mound after being hit by a pitch by Twin Cities' Vince Loyd.
Loyd plunked Coke in the bottom of the fourth inning of a 3-2 Snow Cats' victory.
The previous batter, Marcos Francis, had hit a solo home run.
Both players were ejected from the game.
Loyd will serve a six-game suspension.
