On ESPN, Peter Gammons had some interesting remarks on MLB's recent 6 game suspension of A.J. Burnett. Check out the clip below.
"I felt Burnett was wrong to throw over his head," Gammons said. "But, there is no doubt in anybody's mind in baseball that Vicente Padilla intentionally drilled Mark Teixeira twice. Now, he gets off and A.J. Burnett, who's protecting his teammates because it's a team game gets suspended for six games. Sometimes you think that nobody in Major League Baseball [has] actually been around a baseball game."
