NEW YORK (AP) -Atlanta’s Rafael Soriano was suspended for four games by Major League Baseball on Thursday, three days after he hit Florida’s Dan Uggla with a pitch.
Soriano plunked Uggla in the top of the ninth inning during Atlanta’s 11-6 win over the Marlins on Monday night. Both teams were warned by umpires.
Uggla said the pitch was meant as payback for the three batters hit by Byung-Hyun Kim that night, or for the homer Uggla hit off Soriano in their last meeting.
“It was definitely intentional,” Uggla said Monday. “I was lucky it didn’t hit me in the head.”
