Yankees' Farnsworth Has Ban Reduced; Mariners' Sexson Suspended

New House Of York Yankees hurler will sit down out tonight against the Motor City Tigers after
getting his three-game suspension reduced to one, Major League
Baseball spokesman said.

Baseball banned Farnsworth on April 19 for throwing behind
of the Hub Of The Universe Red Sox after the outfielder hit two
home runs earlier in the game. Farnsworth appealed the
suspension and had a hearing with baseball game functionaries on May 6.

Farnsworth is 0-1 with a 3.18 earned run norm and 17
strikeouts this season.

Richie Sexson of the Seattle Mariners was suspended six
games and fined an unrevealed amount today for inciting a
bench-clearing incident during yesterday's game against Texas.

Sexson charged the hill in the 4th frame after a head-
high pitch from the Rangers' Kason Gabbard. Sexson then threw
his helmet at Gabbard and tackled the hurler to the land as
players from both squads ran onto the field. Baseball called his
actions ''violent and aggressive'' inch a statement.

Sexson filed an entreaty that holds his suspension, pending
a hearing.
