Pirates Pitcher Devenski Hit With Three-Game Ban Over Sal Stewart Incident

MLB suspended Pirates right-hander Chris Devenski for three games and fined him after the league deemed he intentionally threw at Reds infielder Sal Stewart in Saturday’s game; Pirates manager Don Kelly received a one-game ban. The suspension goes into effect tonight unless Devenski appeals, in which case he would be eligible to pitch during the process.

If he doesn’t appeal, Pittsburgh will be short a pitcher for three games, though the bullpen was fresh after an off day.
