Jazz Chisholm Jr. of the Yankees was suspended for one game and fined following his ejection during a game against the Rays. His suspension stemmed from a social media post criticizing an umpire while the game was still ongoing. Although he expressed regret over losing his temper, Chisholm acknowledged his emotions often run high during games. In a statement post-game, he recognized the need to manage his reactions despite the frustrations of the game, particularly regarding close calls by umpires.
"I feel like a lot of stuff hasn't been going my way, but that doesn't give me the excuse to go out there and act like that... I get emotional about a game, especially when I think I'm right."
"Not even f-king close!!!!!" Chisholm posted on X just minutes after he was tossed, then deleted it before the end of the night.
