Major League Baseball has issued a lifetime ban to San Diego Padres' Tucupita Marcano for betting on baseball games involving his own team while injured in the 2023 season, placing over 387 bets totaling $150,000. Marcano lost every parlay involving the Pittsburgh Pirates, the team he was on, winning only 4.3% of his MLB bets. Four other players were suspended for one year for gambling on baseball. This incident is part of a series of recent gambling scandals in various sports leagues.
