 | League Gives Frost Suspension Monday, June 11th, 2012: The South Carolina Bombers were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Ann Arbor at Bomber Ballpark. One in particular -- Joe Frost. Upon being called out on strikes, the Bombers second baseman 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 Frost 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 Frost 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 Frost for 2 games. Frost is hitting .212 this year with 2 home runs, 8 RBIs and 9 runs scored. He has 21 hits in 99 at-bats, 4 walks and a .243 on-base percentage. Frost has played in 25 games. |   |
