Rougned Odor Comments on Brawl with Jose Bautista, Blue Jays

Texas Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor expects to be suspended for his role in the Sunday brawl between his team and Jose Bautista’s Toronto Blue Jays.

Odor said on Monday, “I know I’m going to be suspended for a couple games, but I’m just going to keep doing what I’m doing,” per Jeff Wilson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Odor punched Bautista in the face after the Blue Jays slugger executed a late slide in the eighth inning of Sunday’s contest. Both teams spilled onto the field, and Wilson noted “it is believed that Odor also punched reigning MVP Josh Donaldson” in the ensuing melee.
