Cubs' Clevenger receives one-game ban

New York, NY – Chicago Cubs catcher Steve Clevenger was issued a one-game suspension and fined an undisclosed amount on Saturday.

Clevenger was disciplined for his aggressive actions and fighting during a bench-clearing incident in the bottom of the sixth inning of Thursday's game against the Washington Nationals.

Chicago right-hander Lendy Castillo incited the scuffle by throwing behind Bryce Harper with his first pitch of the inning.
