Chisholm Appeals MLB Suspension for X Post
Tap title to read story
Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Jr. is appealing his one-game suspension and $5,000 fine for violating MLB policy by posting on X after his ejection. Chisholm argues there's a gray area as he was no longer actively participating in the game after his ejection for arguing balls and strikes. He acknowledges his post was a lash-out and unlikely to be repeated, but believes players should be able to express themselves after game events. His appeal hearing is scheduled for next week.
