The Chicago White Sox have indefinitely banned a fan from their home games after he brought Arizona Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte to tears after heckling him about his late mother.

A man at a baseball game who ridiculed the dead mother of the Arizona Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte has been banned by the White Sox and Major League Baseball indefinitely, the league confirmed Wednesday.

CHICAGO — The Chicago White Sox took action against the fan who verbally abused Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte by banning him from future games at Rate Field, the organization said on Wednesday, June 25. The fan was ejected from the game after directing comments toward Marte about his mother, who died in a car accident in 2017.
