Fines, but no suspensions, for Fielder, Mota
Posted using ShareThis
NEW YORK -- Milwaukee Brewers star Prince Fielder and Los Angeles Dodgers pitcherGuillermo Mota have been fined for their run-in this week.
Major League Baseball will not suspend them. The amounts of the fines were not disclosed Thursday.
Mota hit Fielder in the ninth inning of a 17-4 win Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium, presumably as payback for Milwaukee's Chris Smith grazing Manny Ramirez with a pitch two innings earlier.
Afterward, Fielder charged across a hallway toward the Dodgers' clubhouse but was restrained by teammates and security. The teams played Wednesday night and there were no incidents.
Mota should have been suspended...guess the commish figured that having that 5'11 260lbs beast of a man come after you and scare you shitless was probably punishment enough.
