White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson has been suspended six games for his role in a fight against Guardians third baseman José Ramírez, according to ESPN’s Jesse Rodgers. Ramírez will be suspended three games, and one of his Cleveland teammates, Emmanuel Clase, will serve a one-game suspension.
The incident occurred Saturday night when the two exchanged words at second base before Anderson threw down his glove and put up his fists. He ultimately would regret the decision, as Ramírez proceeded to land a devastating right hook that knocked Anderson to the ground. He had to be helped off the field after both benches cleared.
