Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tommy Pham said he received a three-game suspension for slapping the San Francisco Giants' Joc Pederson during a dispute about fantasy football before Friday's game.
Pham told reporters Saturday that Pederson made "disrespectful" comments about the San Diego Padres, the Reds slugger's former team, in addition to their fantasy football issues, which he alleged came down to Pederson "messing with my money."
"I'm a big dog in Vegas," Pham said. "I'm a high roller at many casinos."
Pederson provided a detailed version of the events from his perspective after Friday's contest, a 5-1 Reds victory.
