Marmol says Brewers relayed signs from dugout, leading to Uribe's reaction
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol says he warned the Brewers about relaying signs from the dugout during Tuesday night’s game, a situation that came to a head when Milwaukee reliever Abner Uribe gestured toward the St. Louis dugout with three WWE-style crotch chops after an inning-ending strikeout in the eighth. Speaking through an interpreter, Uribe said after the game that he believed Marmol had been making signs that led him to believe were meant to direct Cardinals pitchers to hit Brewers batters with pitches. Christian Yelich, speaking in the Brewers’ clubhouse on Wednesday, described Uribe’s gesture as “a little bit over the top.”
