09/04/2008 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Major League Baseball suspended Philadelphia Phillies third base coach Steve Smith for two games and fined him an undisclosed amount on Thursday.

Umpires called Ryan Howard out on a close play at first in the seventh inning of an eventual 3-2 Cubs win.

Smith is scheduled to begin serving his suspension for the first two games of Philadelphia's three-game series against the Mets in New York, set for Friday and Saturday.
