In response to the McLane baseball player sentenced to 8 mos., $6000 & 3 mos probation for hitting another player and breaking his jaw, I'm astounded that a judge would hand down such a harsh sentence.
I understand his wanting to set an example but this is way out of line. How about the probation, paying the $6,000 and community service and anger management classes!
What kind of damage will the jail sentence do to him? Does he really deserve this kind of punishment. I certainly don't condone physical attacks on others, especially in sports, but this is ridiculous and should be overturned!!!
