Brewers' Abner Uribe serving 1-game suspension Wednesday night against Reds
Uribe accepted the penalty after an appeal stalled, and he had pitched four of the past five days before Milwaukee’s game against Cincinnati.
- Milwaukee Brewers reliever Abner Uribe is serving a one-game suspension Wednesday against the Cincinnati Reds, nearly a month after Major League Baseball issued the penalty for his May actions.
- On May 29, Major League Baseball suspended Uribe after he celebrated an inning-ending strikeout by making three WWE-style crotch chops toward the Louis Cardinals dugout during a 6-0 victory.
- Uribe initially planned to appeal the suspension to remain active; however, he opted to accept the penalty Wednesday as part of a settlement agreement after nearly a month without a verdict.
- With an off-day June 25 ahead of 17 days leading into the All-Star break, Uribe strategically timed his suspension to ensure he remains fully fresh during the compressed schedule.
- Recording 31 strikeouts in 29 1/3 innings, Uribe has been effective for the Milwaukee Brewers with five saves across 31 appearances and a 3.38 ERA this season.
