Dodgers P Kelly suspended 8 games. MORE:
was suspended for eight games by Major League Baseball on Wednesday, a day after throwing a fastball near the head of Houston’sBenches cleared after Kelly’s actions during the sixth inning of Los Angeles’ 5-2 win at Minute Maid Park. The game marked the first time the teams had met since it was revealed Houston stole signs en route to a 2017 World Series title that came at the Dodgers’ expense.
Kelly, a hard thrower with a touch of wildness, has previously been suspended in his career for throwing at a batter. There were two outs in the inning when Kelly threw a breaking ball over Correa’s head. Correa, who homered and finished with three hits, took off his batting helmet and stared Kelly down before continuing the at-bat.
Kelly denied that he purposely threw at the Astros. He was asked if there was any added motivation Tuesday because his Red Sox team lost to Houston in the AL Division Series in 2017. “I really don’t know, to be quite honest,” he said. “I know he got behind Bregman 3-0 and lost a fastball. I really don’t think there was intent behind that. I think those guys took a little bit of offence. Even the one to Correa, that was a breaking ball that just backed up.”
