Major League Baseball suspended the interior field player of New York Jazz Jazz Chisholm Jr. for a match and inflicted a fine undefeared him, the result of her actions during the victory Thursday evening against the Rays of Tampa Bay.
Chisholm was expelled in the seventh round by the plaque referee John Bacon for having discussed after a third strike called a land at a very number of Mason Montgomery which seemed weak.
A few minutes later, he posted on his X account, “not even F — ING near !!!!!” then removed the post.
“I did not think before I had something I said was ejectable but after probably,” said Chisholm after the match. “I am a competitor, so when I go and I have the impression of being right and you tell me something that, I think, does not make sense, I will get started and be upset.
“I lost my emotions. I lost my composure. I have to be better than that. … I am really angry with myself to have lost my composure.”
Michael Hill, a senior vice-president of the League for field operations, said that Friday’s discipline was for the “conduct of Chisholm, including his violation of the major social media policy for the players of the major league”.
MLB regulations prohibit the use of electronic devices during games. The social media policy forbidden “to display or transmit content which questions impartiality or otherwise denigrates a major league arbiter”.
Chisholm will appeal, according to manager Aaron Boone, and he was aligned on Friday, hitting fifth and playing the second goal against the Rays at the Steinbrenner Field.
