Chron: Garner can appeal after all!

Remember how Astros beat writer Jose de Jesus Ortiz was (really really!) insistent that Astros manager Phil Garner couldn't appeal his suspension?

Apparently, Garner doesn't read the Chronicle:

Astros manager Phil Garner, who was supposed to sit out Friday's game after getting suspended for his action's in Monday's loss to Detroit, was in the dugout, awaiting a review from Major League Baseball.

[snip to cut out the unrelated crap that a Chron editor should have cut]

Although there is no formal appeals process for managers and coaches, Garner will be allowed to challenge the suspension during a conference call with Major League Baseball officials.

Ah, so Ortiz's insistence that Garner couldn't appeal was wrong.

But some good has come of all this. Brian McTaggart has apparently found Jose de Jesus Ortiz's missing apostrophe key!
