Here was what our local CBS sports guy had to say on Sexson. I live in Kennewick, WA, so this is a Mariners guy. That makes it even funnier.

"Richie Sexson charged the mound last night, going after Rangers pitcher Kason Gabbard. After a high pitch and high tensions, the Mariners slugger went off.

That pitch wasn’t within two feet of Sexson’s head, but close enough for Richie to think it was retaliation for a couple of Texans made targets by Felix Hernandez.
Today, Sexson was suspended for six days, and was fined for, quote, 'violent and aggressive actions.'

Sexson is appealing. He aught to just take it like a man and move on. Sexson didn’t go after Gabbard like a man, taking off his helmet and throwing it at the guy. Embarrassing, for Mariners fans. For a team that’s played embarrassingly bad, the M’s first baseman aught to be embarrassed after another obviously frustrating, under-achieving, Richie Sexson-like start."
My heart goes out to his son and his family, I can understand some frustratin, but still.
