Utley will not serve a 2-game suspension for his takeout slide on Ruben Tejada during the NLDS, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Utley's slide was rough enough that it helped spark a revision of the neighborhood play, but MLB has deemed it legal under the rules at the time. Going forward, a slide like Utley's, which resulted in a broken leg for Tejada, will be considered illegal, hopefully leading to fewer injuries for middle infielders.
