Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s 1-Game Suspension for NSFW Post Dropped by MLB

Doric SamApr 27, 2025

New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. will not be forced to miss time for his NSFW social media post earlier this month.

Per Ronald Blum of the Associated Press, MLB dropped Chisholm's one-game suspension for his ejection against the Tampa Bay Rays on April 18 and subsequent violation of its social media policy following his appeal. His fine reportedly was maintained.

Chisholm wasย ejectedย by plate umpire John Bacon in the eighth inning of the Yankees' 6-3 win over the Rays when he argued a called third strike on a pitch from Rays reliever Mason Montgomery that appeared low. It was the first time he was ejected from a game with the Yankees and the fifth ejection of his career.

After being removed from the game, Chisholmย tweeted, "Not even f--king close" before deleting the post.

Blum explained that MLB's social media policy prohibits "displaying or transmitting content that questions the impartiality of or otherwise denigrates a major league umpire." Also, players are banned from using electronic devices during games under league rules.

"I didnโ€™t think before I had anything that I said was ejectable but after probably," Chisholm said after his ejection. "Iโ€™m a competitor, so when I go out there and I feel like Iโ€™m right and youโ€™re saying something to me that I think doesnโ€™t make sense, Iโ€™m going to get fired up and be upset."

Chisholm was allowed to continue playing while his appeal delayed any penalties from MLB. In 28 games, he's hitting just .178 with seven home runs and 17 RBI.

The Yankees improved to 17-11 after sweeping Sunday's doubleheader against the Toronto Blue Jays and will look to keep the momentum going when they visit the Baltimore Orioles (10-17) for Monday's series opener.
