A fan who heckled Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte during a game against the Chicago White Sox at Rate Field on Tuesday night has been banned indefinitely from all major league stadiums, a person with direct knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press.
Marte was seen in tears on the field after the spectator yelled a derogatory comment about Marte’s late mother during a seventh-inning at-bat in Arizona’s 4-1 win over Chicago.
According to a White Sox spokesperson, the security staff at the ballpark relayed that the 22-year-old fan was “very apologetic and remorseful after the fact, and admitted to being very inappropriate and stupid with his comments.” Another person confirmed to the AP that Major League Baseball had banned the fan from all big league stadiums. That person spoke on condition of anonymity because the punishment wasn’t announced by the league.
Oops, did somebody forget that they weren’t posting semi-anonymously on an online forum and there might be consequences for their actions? Glad MLB banned them.
Dude’s only unhappy he got caught.
He’s an adult, what is his name?
Why do you care?
You’re either giving fame to an asshole or else trying to start a harassment campaign.
Wow are you a strange one.
Human decency is strange and rare, these days.
Dude fucked up. Dude got in trouble. Dude ought to be ashamed and I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he is. I don’t yearn to have the mob come after him.
I’d argue that they’re being realistic. The only reason you’d want a name is to harass them.

Pretty sure Ketel Marte hasn’t killed himself.
True, mixed up with the fox rescuer suicide
