with how the game is being played, utley did nothing wrong. obviously he didn't mean to break the guy's leg, but being an infielder tejada should've known to protect himself better. that was a very awkward attempt (and plant foot) to turn an impossible double play. with the game situation tejada should've known better, 100% of baserunners would've come in that hard.
handing out the suspension is a stupid and a reactionary move by MLB....just make another "buster posey" rule then if you want to protect infielders, as is utley doesn't deserve any suspension.
