throwing at opposing batter
NEW YORK (AP) --- Pittsburgh Pirates reliever Chris Devenski has been suspended
for three games and fined for intentionally throwing at Cincinnati Reds rookie
Sal Stewart, Major League Baseball announced Tuesday.
Devenski intentionally threw at Stewart in the top of the seventh inning of
Pittsburgh's 17-7 win at PNC Park on Saturday. He was ejected following the
incident.
Pirates manager Don Kelly was also suspended for one game and received an
undisclosed fine, MLB senior vice president for on-field operations Michael
Hill announced.
Devenski's suspension is set to start on Tuesday night, when the Pirates open a
road series against the Arizona Diamondbacks. If Devenski appeals, the
suspension would be put off during that process. His fine was not disclosed.
Kelly was also set to serve his suspension on Tuesday night.
