Baseball Betting Lines

06/22/2010 - St. Petersburg, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - San Diego Padres catcher Yorvit Torrealba has dropped the appeal of his three-game suspension.

He will begin serving the suspension on Tuesday against Tampa Bay after being disciplined for making contact with an umpire on June 14.

The incident occurred in the bottom of the ninth inning of a 6-3 home loss versus Toronto after Torrealba took a called third strike and argued with home plate umpire Larry Vanover.

In other Padres news, the team recalled catcher Dusty Ryan from Triple-A Portland and optioned infielder Lance Zawadzki to the same club.

Ryan last played in the majors in 2009 with Detroit and has hit .257 in 27 career contests at that level.

Zawadzki has hit .200 with one RBI in 20 games with the Padres this season.
