((HT: MLB.com/MASN))
Major League Baseball announced that Orioles 3B Manny Machado got a five-game suspension and an undisclosed fine for his bat toss in the team's 11-1 loss Sunday.
He felt that he had been thrown at on a previous pitch and tried to exact some kind of revenge on Oakland reliever Fernando Abad.
Gary Thorne's analysis was pretty spot on...
Abad got a fine and no suspension...

Manny Machado Misses In Alleged Intentional Bat Toss
((HT: MLB/MASN))
The Baltimore Orioles Manny Machado thought he was thrown at by the Oakland A's Fernando Abad IN A 10-0 GAME THEY WERE LOSING IN...
So, on the next pitch Machado decided to work the hammer throw...
Machado and Abad both got tossed and Oakland won 11-1
No word on if there will be any more discipline from the league...
This comes on the heels of Machado prompting the benches to clear Friday night. He took offense to a swipe tag by the A's Josh Donaldson, threw his helmet down, said lots of angry words which was enough for the dugouts to empty before Machado was steered away.
The two incidents combined, yeah, that might the attention of the powers that be...

This Week in Bad TV Graphics: KC Royals Style
((ht: awfulannouncing.com))This is just painful.
Particularly to those of us who work in the TV business and take pride in making sure anything we put on the air is correct.
For those of you familiar with Sports, take a look at the screen grab on your right.
It's a graphic done for the Fox Sports Kansas City broadcast of Thursday's Royals game.
Look closely.
In no particular order: Bryce Hunter should be Bryce Harper. And notice the Detroit Tigers logo and Nationals cap.
Matt Jones. Nope. Should be Matt Harvey. and notice the Orioles logo. That despite the Mets cap.
Manny Machado. Well, they did get his name right, but check out the White Sox logo.
And then Mike Trout. Again, they did get the name right, but no, despite the Angels hat, they show him as playing for the Yankees.
C'mon guys, this is embarrassing.
Sure, we know that on occasion typos are made, we get that. Happens to everyone. But this is pathetic. Did you not even look at the graphic you were making?
