A benches-clearing incident occurred between the New York Mets and Milwaukee Brewers after Jeff McNeil took exception to Rhys Hoskins' hard slide into second base. The incident led to tensions and verbal exchanges between the players, with no punches thrown or ejections. Umpires later ruled that Hoskins' slide was legal. The next day, Mets pitcher Yohan Ramirez was ejected for throwing behind Hoskins, leading to a suspension for Ramirez and Mets manager Carlos Mendoza. Despite the controversies, Hoskins had a strong performance, including hitting a home run, leading the Brewers to victory and a sweep of the Mets.
Mets pitcher Yohan Ramírez is appealing the three-game suspension he received after he threw over the head of Milwaukee Brewers’ DH Rhys Hoskins on Saturday. Ramírez is arguing that the pitch was unintentional. @AbbeyMastracco https://t.co/NtPgCcWlcq

Why hasn't @mlb looked at that Hoskins slide? Not justifying Ramirez or Mendoza. If these guys are getting suspended then so should Hoskins, who went spikes first into O'Neil. If MLB rules the Hoskins slide clean then Ramirez is also clean. https://t.co/PbNlHvCImu
