BC Malone Suspended Wednesday, September 17th, 2031 The Philadelphia 1776 BC were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Las Vegas at The Strip. One in particular -- Kevin Malone. Upon being called out on strikes, the BC catcher gave the ump quite an earful. For that, the man in blue gave him the thumb and sent him to an early shower. But the disgruntled Malone lingered on the field for another five minutes, berating the umpire. Finally his manager got him off the field and into the clubhouse. But it got worse after the game, when Malone told reporters, "He was blind today. They played 'Three Blind Mice' for him. If he doesn't know the words to the song, I'm sure we can get it in Braille, so he can follow along." For his escapades and after-the-game oration, the league office suspended Malone for 3 games. Malone is hitting .255 so far this season with 21 RBIs and 27 runs scored. He has 67 hits including 2 home runs, 29 walks and .325 OBP. |
