New York Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm was ejected in the seventh inning of the team's 6-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Following the ejection, Chisholm criticized an umpire on social media, posting, "Not even f***ing close," before deleting the tweet. Chisholm acknowledged being "fired up" about the call and took responsibility for his ejection.
Chisholm, who has struggled in the 2025 season compared to his previous performance, is hitting .169/.272/.451 with a high strikeout rate of 32.1 percent. Despite his post-game comments trying to move on from the incident, Chisholm may face consequences from MLB for violating the league's social media policy, which prohibits players from using electronic devices during games and denigrating umpires. The deleted post may still have repercussions as the league could take action against Chisholm for his outburst on social media.
