Garber hints at Jones suspension

The MLS commissioner says the New England Revolution midfielder will miss time but also said the league is working to improve officiating.

MLS commissioner Don Garber has hinted that a suspension is coming for New England Revolution midfielder Jermaine Jones.

Jones ran toward referee Mark Geiger in stoppage time of the Revs' 2-1 defeat to D.C. United on Wednesday after the official declined to give a handball in the box. The U.S. national team midfielder made contact with Geiger, who showed Jones a red card.

A suspension seems imminent, and Garber said Thursday there will be a decision handed down.
