Daily News | MLB suspends Buck Showalter one game for Mets’ ‘intentionally throwing’ at Phillies’ Kyle Schwarber
Kyle Schwarber said he couldn’t be certain that the New York Mets were trying to hit him with back-to-back low, inside fastballs in the ninth inning Sunday night. Phillies manager Joe Girardi was sure that they were.Mets manager Buck Showalter was suspended for Monday night’s game against the Atlanta Braves and fined an undisclosed amount for what MLB termed “intentionally throwing” at Schwarber, who hit two home runs earlier in the Phillies’ 10-6 loss in New York.
The Mets were hit by 20 pitches through 23 games, more than any team in baseball, and have been involved in benches-clearing dustups in Washington and St. Louis. López touched off the brawl in St. Louis by brushing back Nolan Arenado. Home-plate umpire Jerry Meals warned both benches after López’s second inside pitch to Schwarber. After the game, Showalter said López was trying to pitch inside to Schwarber because the Mets “didn’t have much success pitching Schwarber out over the plate.”
