Miles Mikolas received a five game suspension for throwing at and hitting Ian Happ. That’s better than what Angel Perdomo received the other day, but I suspect it was simply that Mikolas’s HBP was more blatantly intentional. I’ll be happier when the number gets to ten and above.


Yeah, the swing was unintentional. Going up and in on the next pitch should have ended it.
The broadcast crew must have been for the Cardinals, because they saw nothing wrong with hitting Happ. Not a good look.
