Insensitive Taunt About Late Mother Brings Ketel Marte to Tears During Game

5 months ago | 5 Views

Following an offensive remark made by a heckler regarding his deceased mother, Elpidia Valdez, who passed away in a car crash in 2017, Ketel Marte sobbed. A supporter made an insensitive comment during Tuesday's Diamondbacks Arizona vs Chicago White Sox game, prompting the emotional outburst. According to the AP, this led Arizona manager Torey Lovullo and bench coach Jeff Banister to ask the authorities to ban the purported Sox fan from the stadium.

During Tuesday's game, why did Ketel Marte, the Diamondbacks' standout player, burst into tears?

During a pitching shift in the bottom of the seventh inning, when Arizona won 4-1, Marte, who had a solo home run in the first inning, could be seen visibly upset as Lovullo wrapped his arm around his player to comfort him. Eventually, Marte was able to seal AZ's 4-1 triumph.

Following the game, Marte made no comments to the press. Torey Lovullo, his manager, disclosed on his behalf that the Diamondbacks star was disturbed by the occurrence. "When I went out to switch pitchers, I simply acted like a dad." He was crying, I could tell. Lovullo said it hurt.

“That can’t happen,” the Diamondbacks player responded in the interim. We can't keep engaging in that nonsense in MLB. Although the fan was allegedly kicked out of the stadium for the remark, it is unknown whether the MLB or the White Sox will impose additional penalties.
