Major League Baseball has suspended Brett Lawrie for four games and fined him an undisclosed amount, a day after the Blue Jays third baseman got into an altercation with umpire Bill Miller. Lawrie appealed and can play until there is a hearing. He disagreed with a strike call and tossed his helmet to the ground. It then kicked up and struck Miller in the hip area. "The only thing I would change is maybe not throwing the helmet or any equipment toward the umpire because you can get an unlucky hop and have the kind of mess that's going on right now," the 22-year-old said.
