Soriano's next AB, Bueno almost hit him in the head and the umpire ejected Bueno.

After that game, Bueno was sent back down, and he was handed a 3-day suspension by MLB, but he could only serve that suspension (and appeal that suspension) when he gets called back up.

Almost 4 years later (after pitching in South Korea in 2010, and Mexico in 2011) he's called back up, he immediately appealed his 2008 suspension, so that suspension is on hold pending the appeal.
Haha. Weird.

Anyway, his numbers look good in AAA this year. He can't be any worse than Colon.
