Cardinals' Matt Carpenter suspended one game for bumping ump
Matt Carpenter was suspended one game by Major League Baseball for bumping into an umpire on Sunday.
What It Means:
Carpenter made contact with the home plate umpire Sunday after getting ejected for arguing a called third strike. The 31-year-old first baseman won't appeal the ruling. He was slated to hit second tonight against right-hander Marco Estrada and the Toronto Blue Jays.
Carpenter is slashing .236/.362./364 this season while hitting two home runs and driving in five scores across 69 plate appearances (17 games).
