- Odor got eight games for the punch. To which many baseball historians and other people supporting the new rule have to ask: How much more does he take until he gets carted off?
- Bautista, for his entire involvement: One game. ONE. Toronto has apparently had a number of problems with the new rule, and Joey Bats is definitely becoming one of the hotter heads in the league. You might as well have declared his late slide legal and not interference, while you were at it! For starting it with the second hard slide into Odor, ten would've been more a good start.
- Jesse Chavez of the Blue Jays got three games for throwing at Prince Fielder after the warnings. Given what had happened the inning previously, probably not enough, but fairly standard.
- Elvis Andrus got suspended one game for charging out during the fight.
- Toronto manager John Gibbons (3) and Toronto first-base coach Tim Leiper (1) were both suspended for failure to leave the field after being ejected. Both were ejected in the THIRD INNING and came out for the fight in the eighth.
And, by MLB rules, that can be a fucking forfeit.
Are you motherfuckers out of your mind over there in New York? Seriously?? The fight's bad enough, but this "return to the field after getting ejected to further involve yourself when you should already be out of the dugout and in the clubhouse" shit is getting old and it's getting old FAST.
That's at least three (and that doesn't count Bryce Harper) in the last ten days.
