Major League Baseball announced that right-hander Abner Uribe<\/a> has been given a one-game suspension and an undisclosed fine for his inappropriate actions towards the Cardinals\u2019 dugout during the top of the eighth inning of Tuesday\u2019s game at American Family Field. Uribe is appealing, so the suspension is held in abeyance until the appeals process is complete.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred after Uribe struck out Alec Burleson<\/a>, as seen in this footage<\/a> from MLB.com, which also includes comments from manager Pat Murphy and Uribe himself. After striking out Burleson, Uribe turned towards the away dugout and performed a gesture that will be familiar to wrestling fans of a certain era<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Murphy was visibly unpleased at the time and later called the situation unacceptable. Uribe, through a Spanish-language translator, apologized to various people with the Brewers. But he didn\u2019t apologize to the Cardinals and actually condemned St. Louis manager Oli Marmol, implying Marmol had threatened Milwaukee hitters with bean balls.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not the first time Uribe has been suspended for an on-field situation. The Brewers and Rays got into a brawl in 2024, with Uribe and Jose Siri<\/a> at the center of it. Uribe received a six-game suspension<\/a> for that, though it was later reduced to four games on appeal.<\/p>\n

When a player is suspended for an on-field infraction, the team cannot replace him on the roster. If Uribe\u2019s suspension is upheld or he drops his appeal, the Brewers will have to play a man short for one game. For a suspension this short, it\u2019s possible that Uribe will drop the appeal prior to a game that he wasn\u2019t going to be available for regardless, perhaps after pitching a few days in a row.<\/p>\n
