Major League Baseball has handed down four suspensions following a benches-clearing brawl in Tuesday night's Milwaukee Brewers vs. Tampa Bay Rays game.Brewers reliever Abner Uribe, who was seen throwing punches in the brawl, was given a six-game suspension and an undisclosed fine. Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta, who hit Rays outfielder Jose Siri with a pitch in the top of the sixth inning, was given a five-game suspension and an undisclosed fine.
'So Siri hit a home run — a pretty good home run ... and it was a first-pitch home run,' Guccione said. 'So OK, he ran the bases, whatever, and nothing was really said that we noticed. Then you go to the sixth inning, a 3-0 count, and the pitch that hit Siri went right at him. You put what happened previously in the game together, and we get together as a crew and we discuss all the events, and we determined as a crew that Peralta was intentionally throwing at Siri.
