MLB issued a three-game suspension against Tim Anderson for making contact with an umpire Friday night.
Anderson, 29, was unhappy with a first pitch strike call by Mahrley in the bottom of the seventh inning. The two had words before Mahrley ejected Anderson who then approached the umpire, making contact between his helmet and Mahrley’s cap.

This is the second suspension imposed on Anderson for making contact with an umpire. Maybe the White Sox should take some action to prevent this in the future. They are better off with him in the lineup. In addition, MLB has been promoting Anderson as a star. If this keeps happening, that star will be a bit tarnished.
Outside chance of making playoffs and this clown does something like this to help his team. It’s just the chickens coming home to roost.
