I happened to be watching that game live when Hawk's rant occurred. To say it was unprofessional was an understatement.
If MLB gives license for their games to be shown, not saying he can be fired, but MLB probably could take some other actions that would affect the club directly. I am going to assume that is why MLB is bringing in Hawk in for a little talk to remind him that they can do things to hurt the club if he embarrasses them any further.
