A 22-year-old fan was indefinitely banned from Guaranteed Rate Field after heckling Arizona Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte with a derogatory comment about his deceased mother. Marte was visibly upset, prompting his manager and teammates to condemn the fan's actions. The White Sox spokesperson reported the fan was apologetic, but the incident sparked calls for better fan behavior in MLB. Marte hit a home run earlier in the game, but the incident overshadowed his performance.
