League Gets Last Word, Suspends García 2 Games Thursday, September 11th, 2025 The Temple Goers were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Frisco at Outlander Park. One in particular -- Raúl García. Upon being called out on strikes, the Goers 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 García 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 García 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 García for 2 games. In 47 games García is hitting .247 this season with 41 hits, 4 home runs, 16 RBIs, 24 walks, .340 OBP and has scored 18 runs. |
