If someone does get hit by a pitch tonight, I look forward to the total ineptude that will be displayed the MLB umpires as I'm pretty sure things will get out of hand.
Apparently it was a dual consideration. MLB was involved in the suspension decision.

I get the idea that you can't use language like that on the field (i play in a hockey league that will ban you for using those words and Im cool with it while many arent), but two game suspension for words
