Oregon coach George Horton and outfielder Scott Heineman suspended following USC ejections

Oregon coach George Horton and outfielder Scott Heineman have been suspended due to actions that took place in Sunday's loss at USC.

The two were both thrown out after arguing an eighth-inning Heineman check swing. Heineman initially argued the call and was thrown out, and Horton was ejected after Heineman.  

Horton is suspended two games for continuing to argue after being ejected (Rule 2-26, AR 7), while Heineman will be forced to sit out a game for unsportsmanlike conduct towards an umpire (Rule 2-26, AR 6), a release from Oregon states. 

Both suspensions are automatic and neither has an appeals process.
