answer: none, except this time Tejada was planted and injured.
Utley should have been called out for interference, the umpires blew it.
I still don't see the suspension, though. Utley didn't do anything dirty or outside the normal confines of major league baseball. |
on the first slide Tejada was on the bag and Utley went to the bag which is his job; current one he thought he was out and went for the player not the bag; his slide starts right at Tejada because that was his intent;
