Indian Wells's North Suspended Tuesday, April 10th, 2018 The Indian Wells Aeropostales were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Leningrad at Stars Field. One in particular -- Odysseus North. Upon being called out on strikes, the Aeropostales left fielder 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 North 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 North 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 North for 3 games. This season North is batting .235 with no home runs. His totals include 2 RBIs and 6 runs scored. |
