The #Yankees bring up outfielder Shane Robinson today just in time for the #RedSox series and designate Jace Peterson for assignment.

Yadier Molina suspended one game, and he remains eligible to play until appeal is heard. The fact that he made contact with umpire Tim Timmons was a key factor in @MLB decision. @MLBNetwork

Yeah, that is bad. Camden Yards is a great park even when the baseball is bad.
