Rodolfo Castro suspended one game


Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Rodolfo Castro was suspended one game and fined for having his cell phone on the field during a game, Major League Baseball announced.

Castro is appealing the suspension, meaning he'll be available to play until he receives a hearing.

The 23-year-old's phone fell out of his back pocket while sliding into third base during the Pirates' Aug. 9 contest against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
