Well, that was quick: Tigers pitcher Fernando Rodney has already said he’ll appeal the three-game suspension handed down today. No one was actually hit when threw the ball into the press box, but, ya know, he threw a ball into the press box.
“I was throwing the ball to the fans,” Rodney said afterwards. “[I was] emotional. It’s nothing bad. I know I’m not supposed to throw the ball, but I’m feeling in the moment. ... I don’t throw it to hit nobody. I think if I throw it in the right spot, I don’t hit nobody.” You can watch video of the incident at MLB.com.
