Brewers Manager Murphy Calls Uribe’s Mound Antics Unacceptable

  • Brewers reliever Abner Uribe made three WWE-style crotch chops toward the Cardinals dugout after striking out first baseman Alec Burleson on Tuesday night, prompting manager Pat Murphy to call the antics in the 6-0 victory 'unacceptable.'
  • Uribe's gesture stemmed from what he claimed were signals from Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol during Monday's game indicating the team would throw at Brewers batters William Contreras and Christian Yelich.
  • Uribe acknowledged his emotional history, apologizing to 'the Brewers. I owe an apology to my teammates, to my manager,' while Murphy said 'There's so much good in this kid' but emphasized such behavior 'can't be tolerated.'
  • Murphy will await MLB's decision on discipline as the teams wrap up their series today; Cardinals manager Marmol said the situation appeared handled internally but was unaware of Uribe's accusations at the time.
  • Cardinals strongly denied Uribe's signaling claims per Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat, with pitcher Herrera calling the gesture disrespectful; Uribe was suspended six games for a benches-clearing brawl against Tampa Bay in April 2024.
