MLB: Marlins P Badenhop, manager Gonzalez suspended


Associated Press

NEW YORK — Florida pitcher Burke Badenhop has been suspended three games and Marlins manager Fredi Gonzalez was penalized one game after trouble this weekend at Dodger Stadium.

Major League Baseball issued the penalties Monday. Badenhop also was fined, as was Los Angeles pitcher Jeff Weaver.
Badenhop’s suspension will begin Tuesday night unless he appeals. Gonzalez will sit out the game against Atlanta.
Badenhop hit Orlando Hudson in the rear with a pitch in the seventh inning of Sunday’s 8-6 win. Earlier in the game, Weaver hit Florida’s Hanley Ramirez with a pitch, prompting umpire Bob Davidson to issue warnings against further trouble.
