“I never said it about CABRON. There are 2 fouls that make me not mad. One play before he apologized to me because he said he didn't see the foul,” Arteaga wrote on social networks.
After this “hot” response, and after receiving the disapproval from Fernando Ortiz At a press conference, Arteaga made a post on his Instagram account where he apologized to the fans, team and coaching staff for the expulsion.
