Houston Astros’ pitcher Hector Neris broke his silence after he shouted at Julio Rodriguez during a strikeout in the sixth inning, causing benches on both sides to clear.
In a statement to KPRC 2, Neris issued an apology to Rodriguez, his family, and the Mariners after the incident.
First, I want to apologize to Julio, his family, and the Mariners organization. I have a tremendous amount of respect for Julio as a person and a player. He means so much to baseball and the communities in the United States and back home in the Dominican Republic. He is a great player and a better person and deserves to be recognized that way.
