LOS ANGELES — Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig was suspended one game for giving the double middle finger to some fans on Tuesday at Progressive Field in Cleveland, MLB chief baseball officer Joe Torre announced on Wednesday.

Puig was also fined an undisclosed amount, and is appealing the suspension. He is starting in right field, batting ninth for the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Puig hit a two-run home run in the second inning on Tuesday, and on his way back to the dugout responded to some fans who had been heckling him during the game.

There aren’t a ton of comparable incidents to measure Puig’s punishment. But in April 2016, Tigers outfielder Tyler Collins flipped off home fans and was not suspended by MLB. Though he only used one finger, and not two.

Puig addressed the incident after Tuesday’s game, and didn’t seem to be expecting the suspension.
