beragampengetahuan dishes out suspensions for Brewers-Rays bench-clearing brawl – Beragampengetahuan
The beragampengetahuan dished out four suspensions Wednesday after a benches-clearing brawl between the Tampa Bay Rays and Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday.
From the Brewers, reliever Abner Uribe was suspended six games, starting pitcher Freddy Peralta, five games, and manager Pat Murphy, two games.
From the Rays, Jose Siri received a three-game suspension, which he is appealing, per Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.
Each player and coach were also fined an undisclosed amount.
The fracas ensued after Siri grounded out against Uribe leading off the eighth inning. Uribe and Siri exchanged words near first base and things quickly became heated.
With an umpire standing between them trying to keep the peace, Uribe threw a punch at Siri, who then took a wild swing at the reliever.
Siri claimed Uribe escalated the exchange with a shoulder bump. Uribe said it began with “unnecessary” words from Siri.
Milwaukee first baseman Rhys Hoskins tried to break up the fight but was knocked to the ground as both dugouts and bullpens emptied quickly.
“I don’t know who said something first, but I saw them talking to each other somewhat discreetly and then off it went,” Hoskins said.
The animosity between Siri and the Brewers had been building all night, starting when he took a long look at his solo home run off Peralta in the third.
When Siri came up again in the sixth, Peralta drilled him with a 3-0 fastball, leading to ejections for Peralta and Murphy.
“Peralta had really thrown the ball well up to that point, commanding the baseball extremely well, so 3-0, it raises suspicion,” Rays manager Kevin Cash said.
Cash asked the umpires to discuss the situation and make a determination.
“(Siri) hit a home run in the top of the third and it was a first-pitch home run,” plate umpire and crew chief Chris Guccione told a pool reporter. “So, OK, he ran the bases, whatever, and nothing was really said that we noticed. Then, you go to the sixth inning, a 3-0 count, and the pitch that hit Siri went right at him. You put what happened previously in the game together, and we get together as a crew and we discuss all the events, and we determined as a crew that Peralta was intentionally throwing at Siri. And with that comes an ejection. That’s really the process.”
Milwaukee won the game 8-2.
