The Commissioner's Office handed out a boatload of suspensions from Wednesday's scuffle between the Angels and Rangers in Arlington.
For the Angels:
Brendan Donnelly - four games
Kevin Gregg - four games
Adam Kennedy - four games
Coach Ron Roenicke - one game
Manager Mike Scioscia - three games
For the Rangers:
Scott Feldman - six games
Vicente Padilla - five games
Manager Buck Showalter - four games
Juan Rivera and John Lackey of the Angels also received fines of an undisclosed amount.
Scioscia and Showalter start their suspensions tonight. Roenicke will sit out Sunday's game.
The players can all appeal. If more than one player is suspended from a team at a time, it's like the NHL when you have more than two players sent off with minor penalties, i.e., the suspension doesn't start until the other player is finished with his.
Correction - Kennedy and Gregg both opted not to appeal their suspensions and both are sitting out this weekend's four-game series with Seattle.
The M's were starting three lefties and Kennedy would have sat down anyway.
So sayeth, the Angels broadcasters.
