>Milwaukee Brewers reliever Abner Uribe has been suspended for one game by Major League Baseball for making WWE style "crotch-chop" gestures toward the St. Louis Cardinals dugout following a strikeout earlier this week.>The incident occurred on Tuesday night during Milwaukee’s 6-0 win over the Cardinals. After striking out Alec Burleson to end the eighth inning, Uribe turned toward the Cardinals’ dugout and performed three "crotch-chops" in celebration, as performed by WWE group DX. >Uribe is appealing the suspension.
>>20564019Based
>>20564019>if you're not down with that, we got two words for ya...BRING IT
>>20564019when did sports became pussified as fuck? was it when they started hiring women in the front offices?
>>20564019>suspended for one gameFucking kekAt most they could have just issued a fine on himHilarious how soft the league has become
>>20564044>one game for a relief pitcher that's getting slightly above the league minimumIt's a glorified $5000 fine.
>>20564035jews control the world
World Weinstein Epstein
>>20564019Was he suspended for the next game he would have played in, or just the next game period? Because pitchers don't usually pitch on consecutive games.
>>20564126The latter. It’s the equivalent of giving a starter a 6-7 game suspension: Congrats you moved his next start back one. At least you can argue that could with the rotation, one game for a reliever is meaningless.
>>20564035can't have that, gotta spend more time shilling advertisements and encouraging the latinos to bat flip
I'm not a baseball purist, don't even keep up with the sport, but baseball comes across as the type of sport where that type of celebration seems really forced and stupid. Out of place really.
>>20564019Why is MLB management such uppity boomers, this is why their fanbase is all pushing 40 and dying
>>20564019Deserved desu, definitely antagonizing and unsportsmanlike, not to mention like dude you barely grazed the zone calm down.
>>20564019professional athletes that use wrestling mannerisms is cringe. i don't care what kind of argument you make.
>>20564165Baseball is autistic in the Japanese sense of the word, meaning restraining strong emotions despite high stress situations with potentially volatile outcomes. A fist pump is considered an extravagant celebration. The crotch chop degraded not only the quiet dignity of the game, but of its autistic repression, and should therefore be punished harshly.
>>20564245That's the general approach it should retain. It's similar to golf. There's a time for celebration, but decorum is required to keep it from devolving into shameless peacocking for the most mundane situations. The game is more important than drawing attention to oneself.
>>20564019>Me in school in 1998Kek that's so based. The reason it did feel edgy to a whole generation was because of pussies like that whole sold for it and got so mad. Good job giving it new life MLB
>>20564245but the MLB allows the bench clearing brawls, hell, even Japan does them.
>>20564245then why do they let spics bat flip? You'll see some fag from honduras bat flip after a homer in a nothing game between two teams last in their divisions but big papi hitting a game winning grand slam against the yankees in the playoffs is him just cordially rounding the bases with a jump onto home plate at the end.
>>20564292Because it's important for the fans to occasionally see the tempest that rages just beneath the surface of every game.
>>20564096Very antisemitic post, anon. Think about your Palantir score
>>20564300eh i've heard people complain about that too. mlb has been trending toward goofy bullshit like this for a while and it's annoying
>>20564019Did the other team complain? No!So who's pulling the strings?
>>20565688Da sanctity of da game
>>20564387they want to be savannah bananas so bad
>>20564019>What has triple h ever done>made a gesture famous that spans generations BRAP SHITMAN SHART BTFO HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>20565723X-Pac invented it though, not Triple Nose
>>20564019God forbid you try and have a little fun in baseball.
>>20565770Imagine being cultural impact mogged by literally X-Pac. KWACUB (kek what a culturally unimportant bitch)
>>20564019Kek
>>20564019wow he's just like me in 7th grade
even in ittle league you'd get hit by the pitcher for doing shit like that. Baseball doesnt allow negro-like celebrations
The Mark's are on the baseball field
>>20564019Back in the day that pitcher would have gotten beaned by the opposing pitcher the next time he batted. I guess MLB is bitch made now like the NBA
>>20565828He got worked
>>20566126Bat flips have been a thing for years gramps, and they’ve stopped retaliating on that. You get worked like that, you’re a bench shitter that had it coming
he's too young to know what DX is
>>20564292Guys getting into a fist fight is different than what was in that clip. Everyone involved understands the expectation of violence and is on equal footing for right or wrong.You had a guy who is unarmed taunting someone holding a club. It is only the social contract, which the person doing the taunting is refusing to adhere to, that prevents the guy with the club from beating him to death. No one with a brain or balls would want this to be an acceptable situation. You have to be a shoot female to not see the difference.
>>20564019lol baseball shitters are so weak. they cant handle wrestling-related gestures from 30 years ago. BASEBALL IS FUCKING BORING.
