The Liga Mexicana de Beisbol has suspended Guerreros de Oaxaca manager Luis Carlos Rivera two games for his conduct during game two of the Guerreros’ series against the Diablos Rojos del Mexico.
Rivera was ejected in the second inning of game two of the Serie de Campeonato for the LMB’s Zona Sur by second base umpire Orlando Lopez after the benches cleared following a grand slam homer by Oaxaca’s Roberto Valenzuela.
