how the heck does Sanchez get 3 and Volquez zero ?????

[Lateral Quicks]

That's truly unbelievable. Not only will major league baseball not discipline Wolfe, they'll compound his error by suspending Sanchez, a guy who should never have been thrown out of the game in the first place.

No doubt the Royals, despite throwing high and inside multiple times and hitting Tulowitzki after the warning was issued, will receive no suspensions. Unreal.

[Komodo]

Do Canadian eyeballs not count towards playoff viewership for MLB? Must be why.

[Santoki]

3 games? Wtf...how is that worthy of a 3-game suspension? What's the precedent this is based off of?

[jaymeister15]

Unbelievable. No idea how you can justify suspending Sanchez for three games.

[distracted]

This is garbage. I wonder if the Jays will appeal.

[wazabifuzz]

maybe MLB thought Sanchez deflated the balls , thus the pitch that hit him occured ?

[rarefind]

Jays will appeal according to Davidi.

[wbbfan]

what BS. 3 games for sanchez, plus one for gibby NONE for kc?

[Regulator]

What a joke

[Mad Prophet]

How many games did that **** umpire get?

[SharoneWright]

This is what we get for our class response after the game? From Gibby on down, our team displayed way more professionalism than Yost and his crew of yappy players. Sanchez hits a guy in the ankle on a 2-0 count, and he's banished for 3?

[Mr Swagtastic]

Wow be gets 3 games for that? Volquez and Madsen for zero guess everybody is still riding KC's dick.

I heard a rumbling that the league is going after Zaun for his "open letter" if they do I smell a major witch hunt

[SharoneWright]

Beeston better put a call in.

[Raptor_Guy]

So accidentally retaliating by hitting a guy in his ankle warrants a 3 game suspension but consistently throwing at a star player's head and hitting 2 players doesn't warrant any suspension?

Gotta appeal that..

[whysoserious]

After everything KC has done this year what kind of punishment have they received?

This is a bit ridic. That whole game escalated to that level cause of Wolfe's management of the game. If he handles that much better, there's no reason for Sanchez or anyone to 'retaliate' if it was on purpose but throwing out the warning and then not throwing anyone out after a guy was hit and two pitches up around the head is what escalated everything.

Hopefully they do cause Zaunie will either get fired by Sportsnet (which is the obvious witchhunt) and he takes to twitter ripping in to MLB even more or Rogers stands by him and he goes on air with an open letter to MLB.

[SharoneWright]

Got to assume MLB will stand by their ruling, so serve 'em now. Be ready for NY.

But in the meantime, Beeston has to go ape on the head office and try to get this thing reduced.

[jaymeister15]

The more I think about it, the more ridiculous it is.

So, Volquez basically admits to throwing at Donaldson when he said if you don't want to get hit, don't pimp your homeruns (or whatever his exact was) and doesn't get anything, but Sanchez gets three games?
