League Gets Last Word, Suspends Rose 3 Games Sunday, June 30th, 2019 The Spokane Bulldogs were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to New York at Confucius Field. One in particular -- Daniel Rose. Upon being called out on strikes, the Bulldogs right 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 Rose 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 Rose 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 Rose for 3 games. Rose on the season is batting .271 with 13 home runs. His totals include 45 RBIs and 34 runs scored. He has played in 67 games. |
