San Diego Padres pitcher Robert Suarez has received a three-game suspension and an undisclosed fine from Major League Baseball for intentionally hitting Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Dodgers. This decision followed an incident that occurred during a game at Dodger Stadium on Thursday. Suarez is appealing the suspension, which will take effect once the appeal process concludes.

Additionally, Padres manager Mike Shildt and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts were each handed one-game suspensions, which they served during their respective games against the Kansas City Royals and the Washington Nationals.

In a separate occurrence, Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Dennis Santana was also suspended for four games and fined for aggressive conduct towards a fan during a doubleheader in Detroit. Like Suarez, Santana has chosen to appeal his suspension.
