Drury appeals suspension for making contact with umpire

June 13th, 2023

Los Angeles Angels infielder  has received a one-game suspension and an undisclosed fine for making contact with umpire Ramon De Jesus while arguing balls and strikes in his club’s game vs. the Texas Rangers Monday night at Globe Life Field in Arlington. Michael Hill, Major League Baseball’s Senior Vice President for On-Field Operations, made the announcement.

The suspension of Drury had been scheduled to begin Tuesday night, when the Angels are to continue their series with the Rangers. However, Drury has elected to appeal. Thus, this discipline will be held in abeyance until the process is complete.
