Astros Drop Gentile Over Bat Flipping Incident
Houston Astros sent slugger Jim Gentile to the Oklahoma City Farm Club after a disciplinary dispute centered on Gentile flipping a bat toward umpire Ed Vargo during a Sunday night game against the Cubs. Gentile, who said he would likely go home to Castro Valley, was ejected after a confrontation with Vargo. Manager Grady Hatton stated Gentile will not play for the Astros and hinted at a trade if possible. Chuck Morrison was recalled from Oklahoma City for the Los Angeles series opener. Gentile’s season stats included a .208 average with seven homers and 18 RBIs in 14 games at bat.
