Farnsworth suspended
I love being right. Maybe A. Bud reads the front page of the Frog. Just yesterday I pointed out how the umpire didn't do his job correctly and should have ejected Farnsworth. I said when the tape was reviewed there may be a suspension. Viola.
New York Yankees reliever Kyle Farnsworth was suspended for three games and fined Saturday for throwing a fastball behind the neck of Boston slugger Manny Ramirez earlier in the week.
Farnsworth appealed the penalty, which was to start Saturday night against Baltimore. He will be eligible to pitch until a hearing is held. (And Joba returns from family leave.)
