Overview
- Uribe served the one-game suspension on Wednesday, June 24, concluding MLB's penalty for a crotch-chopping gesture he made toward the St. Louis dugout in late May.
- Major League Baseball suspended him one game and fined him an undisclosed amount on May 29 for the WWE-style crotch chops after an inning-ending strikeout.
- He initially appealed the discipline and continued to pitch while the appeal was pending, including appearances in four of the past five games on the Brewers' recent road trip.
- Because he had pitched four of the past five days, he likely would not have been available to pitch Wednesday and is expected to be available again beginning Friday for an 18-games-in-17-days stretch before the All-Star break.
- Uribe is in his fourth MLB season, has a 3.38 ERA and five saves this year, and the settled suspension briefly reduces bullpen options during a condensed part of the schedule.
