Brewers’ Abner Uribe suspended one game for crotch-chop gesture toward Cardinals dugout
SUMMARY
Milwaukee Brewers reliever Abner Uribe was suspended for one game and fined by Major League Baseball for performing a crotch-chop gesture toward the St. Louis Cardinals’ dugout after a strikeout on Tuesday. The gesture, which Uribe said was a response to perceived provocation after Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol allegedly signaled for pitchers to hit Brewers batters, drew condemnation from Brewers manager Pat Murphy, who called it 'unacceptable.' Marmol denied the allegations but said he believed Milwaukee was stealing signs. Uribe is appealing the suspension and remains eligible to pitch. The team stated they addressed the incident internally and hope to move forward.
