This Abner Uribe celebration calling out the Cardinals has to be seen to be believed

Well, the Cardinals don't have much to show for their efforts at the plate through the first two games of this week's series in Milwaukee, but there were some postgame fireworks on Tuesday inspired by Brewers reliever Abner Uribe.

After securing an inning-ending strikeout of Alec Burleson in the top of the eighth on Tuesday night, Uribe... well, he reacted.

What's even crazier is that the strikeout wasn't officially in the books as of this moment, because Burleson issued an ABS challenge -- ultimately, Uribe was right to be confident, as the call was upheld. But did he really have to react like THAT?

Cardinals catcher Ivan Herrera didn't seem to think so, commenting in part, according to the BND's Jeff Jones, "If you have an issue with me, you come tell me."

In fairness, Brewers manager Pat Murphy also emphatically spoke out against Uribe's actions.

So, with Murphy clearly in the camp of not condoning the behavior, do the Cardinals have to do something about it?

Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol seemingly took a more diplomatic approach to his public comments. Then, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporter Curt Hogg shared that Uribe apologized for his gesture.

But... the apology seemed to be geared more so toward his own team than toward the Cardinals. Whoops.

In fact, listening to Uribe's full comments through an interpreter as tweeted out by multiple Milwaukee reporters, it seems he feels justified, viewing his gesture as a way to have his teammates' backs.

Uribe claimed that, leading up to his outburst, the Cardinals manager had been insinuating that they were going to throw at his teammates. Jones reports that the Cardinals denied that anything of the sort had taken place.

Whatever Uribe thinks he saw, it seems he's the lone man in the stadium that did, before taking matters into his own hands by showing up the entire opposing team. You know, as a way to protect his own hitters from some sort of retaliation -- over something he, himself, started? Makes perfect sense.

It's getting messy in Milwaukee. Herrera, clearly, didn't appreciate Uribe's on-field celebration. It's hard to imagine the rest of the Cardinals did, either. But the public comments from Marmol don't tip the team's hand.

We'll see how things unfold on Wednesday afternoon, with Dustin May on the mound for St. Louis.
