You likely have seen or read about the epic meltdown by Cubs pitcher Carlos Zambrano on Wednesday.  If not, check here.  Yesterday, the MLB announced that Zambrano would be suspended 6 games and fined $3,000.

But the MLB failed to mention news from the the Players’ Association regarding the umpire involved, Mark Carlson.  It appears that Carlson is being suspended for 2 games by the Players’ Association after also being ejected from the game… by Zambrano.

“We feel that Carlos was right on the call, that the player was out at the plate,” an unnamed representative told us.  “And so, we are acknowledging Zambrano’s ejection of Mr. Carlson, which occured just seconds after Zambrano himself was tossed, and we are suspending him for 2 games.”
