It was clear that Clemens was retaliating for the Blue Jays’ actions toward Alex Rodriguez, and Major League Baseball agreed Thursday. Bob Watson, baseball’s vice president for on-field operations, suspended Clemens for five games and Manager Joe Torre for one. Torre will serve his suspension Friday, when the Yankees play the Indians at Jacobs Field. Clemens has not decided whether he will appeal the suspension, according to his agent, Randy Hendricks, although the punishment seems likely to be upheld. A five-game suspension is generally the minimum for a starting pitcher, who usually pitches only once every five games. Toronto’s Josh Towers hit Rodriguez with a pitch in the left calf in the third inning Tuesday, and the benches cleared twice. No punches were thrown, and nobody was ejected until Clemens hit Rios in the seventh, defying an umpire’s warning. Clemens and Torre were ejected from the game. Clemens and Torre were also fined, as were Rodriguez and two Yankees coaches, Larry Bowa and Tony Pena. Three Blue Jays were fined: Towers, the coach Brian Butterfield and outfielder Matt Stairs. BORAS BACKS RODRIGUEZ Scott Boras, the agent for Alex Rodriguez, said there should be no suspicions about whether Rodriguez had used steroids as he climbed the home run list. “Prior to 2003, there were a great many athletes that were achieving or establishing records and had surges in their careers where they were going to have to answer questions with clouds over them,” Boras said. “But for Alex, it’s all sunshine, because he’s had nothing but consistency in his performance path. Since the age of 21, he’s hit 40 home runs or more almost every year.” Atlanta’s Chipper Jones told reporters Wednesday that as Rodriguez hits more home runs, he will face scrutiny about whether he has taken steroids. Jones also said that Jose Canseco’s claim that he would publish information on Rodriguez in his next book must be taken seriously. Boras dismissed the idea that Canseco might implicate Rodriguez. “In his book, he listed all the athletes he knew who used performance-enhancing drugs, and Alex was excluded from that list,” Boras said of Canseco’s first book. “He specifically mentioned Alex, but only in relation to personality observations.” RETURN FOR RAMiREZ Reliever Edwar Ramirez could be called up again as early as Friday. Ramirez earned a save for Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday. Since the Yankees demoted him last month, he has allowed 1 earned run in 10 2/3 innings with 17 strikeouts. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.109.23.211
