New York Yankees relief pitcher LaTroy Hawkins has been suspended for 3 games after throwing a pitch near the head of Orioles hitter Luke Scott. The pitch was retaliation for captain Derek Jeter getting drilled the day before.

Yankees saw Jeter leave with an injury. The captain got drilled by a Cabrera fastball on the side of his left hand during the third inning. The X-rays were negative. Jeter has a contusion and is day-to-day. He had it wrapped afterward, but Jeter vowed that he would be back in the lineup tonight.
Prior to tonight’s game, Ryan Church told reporters that he never had a concussion, he is fine and expects to be back in the lineup during tomorrow’s finale against the Braves.

The Yankees need the Derek Jeter simply because he is the captain and after losing 9 of 12 falling to 20-25 they really need him in there.
