Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson has been suspended for six games while Cleveland Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez received three games and closer Emmanuel Clase one game for their parts in Saturday's bench-clearing brawl between the two teams, the league announced Monday afternoon.
Also suspended for a game were managers Pedro Grifol and Terry Francona as well as Guardians coach Mike Sarbaugh.
Anderson and Ramirez are appealing their suspensions, so their discipline will be held in abeyance until the process completes. Grifol, Francona and Clase will serve their suspensions on Monday, while Sarbaugh will serve his on Tuesday.
The two teams clashed when Ramirez and Anderson squared off near second base after Ramirez slid in safely on a double in the bottom of the sixth. The fight was the culmination of several days of trash-talking and gesturing between the two teams, which most recently picked up in a series in late July in Chicago.
