Lovullo gets one-game suspension

SAN FRANCISCO -- Arizona manager Torey Lovullo was somewhere in AT&T Park for Tuesday night's game against the Giants. He just wasn't in the D-backs dugout, having been suspended one game by Major League Baseball for his role in Sunday's dustup with St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina.
