Reaction to Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson receiving a one-game suspension and an undisclosed fine for his inappropriate comments toward White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson on Saturday was mixed after Major League Baseball announced the penalty Monday.

While Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Donaldson didn’t deserve it, Sox pitching coach Ethan Katz said Donaldson’s penalty was too light. Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge was critical of his teammate.
