The Cubs fired the Wrigley Field DJ who played an inappropriate song after Aroldis Chapman's appearance during Sunday night's game. 
 
 The '90s song, "Smack My B---- Up" by the English band the Prodigy, came on the PA system after Chapman left the mound in the top of the ninth inning. 
 
 Chapman served a 30-game suspension with the Yankees this year after an alleged domestic-violence incident in which Chapman was accused of choking his girlfriend and firing eight bullets in his garage. Chapman was not arrested and no charges were filed. 
 
 Cubs President Crane Kenney apologized Monday in a statement for the "irresponsible music selection" during the game against the Cardinals. 
 
 "The selection of this track showed a lack of judgment and sensitivity to an important issue," Kenney said. "We have terminated our relationship with the employee responsible for making the selection and will be implementing stronger controls to review and approve music before public broadcast during our games." 
 
 The Cubs declined to release the name of the DJ, one of two who work the sound system. 
 
 In 2013, the team played a profanity-laden song, "Love Me" by Lil Wayne during a Cubs' batting practice. They removed it from their rotation after a Tribune story criticized the team's playlist, which came from one of the players. The team argued the profanities had been edited out.

 When the Chicago Cubs traded for Aroldis Chapman in July, the organization made it abundantly clear that they understood the controversy surrounding the closer after domestic violence allegations that occurred during the 2015 offseason. 
 
 On Sunday, those issues resurfaced because of a poorly-chosen song by the DJ working the PA system at Wrigley Field. 
 
 After Chapman finished pitching in the ninth inning of Sunday’s loss to the St. Louis Cardinals, the song “Smack My B--- Up,” penned and performed by The Prodigy, blared over the loudspeakers at the Friendly Confines. 
 
 Fans on social media immediately recognized the song and criticized the team for playing it. According to Jesse Rogers of ESPN Chicago, the team responded quickly and decisively. 
 
 “We apologize for the irresponsible music selection during our game last night,” Cubs President Crane Kenney told Rogers. “The selection of this track showed a lack of judgment and sensitivity to an important issue. We have terminated our relationship with the employee responsible for making the selection and will be implementing stronger controls to review and approve music before public broadcast during our games.” 
 
 Chapman was accused of choking his girlfriend during a domestic dispute during the 2015 offseason and was also accused of firing off a series of gunshots in his garage during the altercation. 
 
 No charges were filed and Chapman was not arrested, but the situation was serious enough for Major League Baseball to suspend the closer for the first 30 games of the regular season. 
 
 Chapman was acquired in a trade with the New York Yankees prior to the MLB trade deadline earlier this month, and the team made it clear that they had discussed their expectations with the closer about his behavior.
– The Chicago Cubs fired one of their two DJs for what they called an "irresponsible" choice of song—one that was apparently aimed at pitcher Aroldis Chapman, who joined the team in July. After Chapman left the mound in the ninth inning of Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals, the DJ played "Smack My Bitch Up" by the Prodigy, the Chicago Tribune reports. Chapman was accused of choking his girlfriend and firing eight bullets in his garage and while no charges were filed over the 2015 incident, Major League Baseball suspended him for 30 games after he was traded to the New York Yankees later that year. "We apologize for the irresponsible music selection during our game last night," Cubs President said in a statement Monday, per NBC Chicago. "The selection of this track showed a lack of judgment and sensitivity to an important issue. We have terminated our relationship with the employee responsible for making the selection and will be implementing stronger controls to review and approve music before public broadcast during our games.” The Tribune reports that the Cubs have declined to release the name of the DJ, who is one of two who were hired after new video boards were installed in 2015.
