I hope there are so many of these suspensions and angry post-game interviews that baseball is forced to make a change. Some of the calls so far this season have been baffling, to put it very mildly.

Was the incident as silly as that tweet sounds?

I did not see the play in question live, but checking it out after the fact I'd say yes. Carpenter lost his mind on a pitch that was a strike, and barely grazed the ump's shirt with his shirt to 'bump' him.

He was really losing his mind over the strike 2 pitch immediately prior. It was a horrible call on an inside pitch. Not that that excuses him, just explaining.

That had to be a grazing. I didn't even notice contact watching it live.
