The MLB has concluded its investigation into the recent altercation between Braves assistant coach Eddie Perez and Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. The league has determined that the issue is resolved and will not pursue further action following the incident during a Yankees victory in Atlanta. The confrontation arose after Perez appeared to gesture towards Chisholm while he danced off second base, potentially signaling pitch location. The Yankees had previously faced scrutiny for similar actions in a series against the Mariners.

Following the exchange, which drew considerable media attention, Yankees manager Aaron Boone emphasized that threats of retaliation have no place in baseball. However, Perez clarified that his comments were meant as a friendly admonition. As the Yankees struggle with their performance, they can now shift their focus back to improving their game without the distraction of the incident.
