4-Game Suspension for Ragin Cajuns Doolitttle
Saturday, April 21st, 2018
The Louisiana-Layfayette Ragin Cajuns were hoping for a more lenient ruling from the league office, but they didn't get it. In yesterday's game at Field of the Dukes against the Houston Cougars, Ragin Cajuns second baseman Brandon Doolitttle was ejected by the home plate umpire after he vociferously questioned a third-strike call.
The commissioner's office issued a 4-game suspension, saying the league would not tolerate a player behaving in that manner. The disgruntled Doolitttle refused to leave the field and kicked dirt on the umpire's shoes. His manager tried to keep him away from the umpire and physically had to remove him to the dugout with the help of the two other coaches.
Reached for comment after getting the suspension notice, Doolitttle said he was too disgusted to talk about it.
Doolitttle is batting .270 with 4 home runs and 22 RBIs this season.
