NEW YORK -- After all that, Chase Utley is safe.
The two-game suspension imposed on the Los Angeles Dodgers infielder after his hard takeout slide broke the leg of Mets shortstop Ruben Tejada in last year's playoffs has been dropped.
A person briefed on the decision told The Associated Press on Sunday that Major League Baseball and the players' union reached an agreement that rescinded the ban. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because there was no official announcement.
"I can't control that situation, so I can't do anything with that," Tejada said at New York's spring training camp.
