When Cleveland Guardians infielder José Ramírez slid into second base after hitting a double on Saturday night, he had a problem with how Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson applied the tag. When Ramírez got up, he and Anderson exchanged words, then Anderson removed his glove and initiated a fight.
Despite starting it, Anderson was decked by a right hook and knocked down by Ramírez as the benches cleared.
On Monday, Major League Baseball announced a six-game suspension for Anderson and a three-game suspension for Ramírez. Both were also fined an undisclosed amount of money. Both players are appealing their suspensions.
White Sox manager Pedro Grifol and Cleveland manager Terry Francona both received one-game suspensions, and both managers were fined an undisclosed amount of money.
Guardians pitcher Emmanuel Clase also received a one-game suspension for his role in the scuffle and was fined an undisclosed amount of money.
Guardians third base coach Mike Sarbaugh was also suspended one game and fined an undisclosed amount.
