BOSTON -- Michael Pineda says he was just trying to get a better grip on the ball. Orlando Magic Jerseys . Now, he wont need one for a while. A day after being caught using pine tar on the mound, the New York Yankees pitcher was suspended for 10 games by the commissioners office on Thursday. Pineda said he wont appeal, costing him two starts before he can return May 5 at the Los Angeles Angels. "I accept it," Pineda said before Thursday nights game at Fenway Park. "I know I made a mistake." Pineda was ejected in the second inning of New Yorks 5-1 loss to Boston after umpires found the pine tar on the right side of the right-handers neck. After the game, Pineda admitted that he used the pine tar to help him grip the ball on a cool, windy night. "I feel so bad," he said Thursday. Pineda said he had never used pine tar before this season. He spent his first season in the majors with the Seattle Mariners in 2011, then missed the last two with the Yankees following right shoulder surgery. "I think he understood" the seriousness of his action, said Yankees manager Joe Girardi, who expected a suspension of about 10 games, "but I think he got caught up in the moment of competing and it got the best of him." Girardi indicated David Phelps would take Pinedas turn in the rotation. Phelps came into the game with two outs in the second after Pineda was ejected. The ejection set off a debate in the baseball world about pitchers who try pine tar, and whether it should be allowed in certain circumstances. Many former aces said they had done it, albeit in a more discreet manner. "Ive seen a lot of things in my career, so Im not blind to it" being viewed as part of baseball, said Girardi, a former catcher in his seventh year as Yankees manager. Rule 8.02(b) prohibits pitchers from altering the ball to gain an unfair advantage, and forbids them from having a foreign substance on them or in their possession on the mound. "I wouldnt be against coming up with an idea" to modify the rule so pitchers could get a better grip on the ball in cold weather, Girardi said. "It would be a great time for someone to start looking at" finding one substance pitchers would be allowed to use. Pineda wasnt seen with the pine tar in the first inning, when the Red Sox roughed him up. Boston manager John Farrell asked plate umpire Gerry Davis to check Pineda after two fast outs the next inning. "I felt like it was a necessity to say something," Farrell said. "You know, I fully respect on a cold night youre trying to get a little bit of a grip. But when its that obvious, something has got to be said." Davis went to the mound, touched Pinedas neck and ejected him. Pineda said no one told him to use it, that he did it "by myself." Earlier this month, Pineda pitched well in a 4-1 win over the Red Sox at Yankee Stadium. Television cameras showed a substance on his hand in the fourth inning -- Pineda said it was dirt, not pine tar. His hand was clean in the fifth and Farrell didnt ask for him to be checked. Pineda said he didnt use pine tar in a start against the Chicago Cubs, in between his Red Sox outings. Among other suspensions of pitchers for pine tar in the past decade, Tampa Bays Joel Peralta was penalized eight games in 2012, the Angels Brendan Donnelly 10 days in 2005 and St. Louis Julian Tavarez 10 days in 2004. The suspensions of Donnelly and Tavarez were cut to eight days after they asked the players association to appeal, and Peralta dropped his challenge with no reduction. Pineda said Thursday he didnt feel the ball well in the first inning when he allowed two runs on four hits. And he said he wanted to be careful not to hit any batters. "I know its pine tar, but the pine tar did not help me" throw harder, he said. "It helped me for feel, (get) a better grip." Red Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski understood why Pineda used the pine tar. "I dont have a problem with guys that do it," he said. "I know as a hitter, I want to get in there and know the guy has a grip. "Put it on your hat, put it on your pants, your belt, put it on your glove, whatever you have to do. You just cant do it that blatantly. That was what the biggest issue was. No one has an issue with him doing it. Its just more of the fact that its so blatant." Vince Carter Jersey .

Points was disqualified Friday from the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am for using a training device while waiting to play the 18th hole at Pebble Beach.LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Thanks to an injury, a suspension and a weird salary-cap quirk, the Los Angeles Kings had to take on surging Vancouver with only five defencemen in uniform.The Kings remaining blueliners handled the extra work just as splendidly as the defending Stanley Cup champions handled the Canucks.Tyler Toffoli had a goal and two assists, and Jonathan Quick made 18 saves in the Kings 5-1 victory Saturday night.Alec Martinez had a career-high three assists for Los Angeles, which dressed just five defencemen when Robyn Regehr sat out with an injury. The Kings couldnt recall a defenceman to fill in for Regehr or suspended Slava Voynov because they were roughly $160 shy of enough cap room to make a move.So Drew Doughty played 29:46, and Jake Muzzin clocked 25:36 while recording his first multipoint game of the season. Matt Greene and Brayden McNabb also logged extra shifts as the Kings mixed-and-matched their pairings to great success.Ive never come across anything like that before, but youve got to deal with the hand youre dealt, said Martinez, who played 25:30. Weve all played with each other in practice. You play with everybody. Weve been here long enough. We know each others tendencies.A steadily increasing lead also helped.Marian Gaborik, Anze Kopitar, Jeff Carter and Muzzin had a goal and an assist apiece in just the Kings second win in seven games. Los Angeles jumped to a five-goal lead while abruptly returning to top form to demolish the Canucks, who had won six of seven.That was one of our best games of the season, and a lot of fun, Toffoli said. We had the puck for a lot of the time. We came out really strong and kept our feet moving.Kopitar and Gaborik also came through with their first multipoint games of the season after coach Darryl Sutter singled out the top-line stars for their lack of productivity in a loss to the Islanders on Thursday.Ryan Miller yielded four goals on 22 shots before Eddie Lack replaced him to start the third period. Vancouver avoided its first shutout loss of tthe season on Chris Higgins goal with 7:53 to play, but struggled through a dismal night in an otherwise stellar start to the season. Melvin Frazier Jersey. .I thought our goaltending was fine, Vancouver coach Willie Desjardins said. We just didnt play very good. We talked about (how) this trip would kind of show us where were at — and its shown us where were at. Were not good enough right now, and we have to get better. ... Teams are playing us like were a 10-4 team. Theres a difference when teams are really ready for you and when theyre not, and were getting teams that are really ready for us.Miller had won seven straight while starting out 10-1-0 for normally stingy Vancouver, which had yielded more than two goals just once in seven games. The Canucks have lost their last four games at Staples Center, getting outscored 14-3.Weve played good for a while, but we made too many mistakes tonight, captain Henrik Sedin said. Thats a team where you have to keep it simple, because if you make mistakes, theyre going to hurt you. ... Weve been able to roll four lines and score timely goals, and thats what we need to win, especially in this conference. We got none of that tonight.Los Angeles dominated from the opening minutes. Gaborik scored his first goal of an injury-slowed season off a rebound midway through the first period, and Muzzin wired a long wrist shot through traffic nearly five minutes later.Kopitar scored on a sharp-angled wrist shot past Millers ear late in the first, and Toffoli scored his seventh goal of the season on a rebound midway through the second.NOTES: Kopitars last multipoint game was Game 4 of the Western Conference finals against Chicago last May. He posted just seven points in his 19 games since then. ... Longtime Kings prospect Linden Vey earned an assist for Vancouver on Higgins goal. Los Angeles traded its former fourth-round pick to the Canucks last June. ... Carter earned an assist on Toffolis goal, snapping his six-game scoreless streak, tied for the longest of his career.
