San Angelo's Rosbotham Suspended Tuesday, July 1st, 2025 The San Angelo Mustangs were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Brisbane at Heartland Kettlecorn Stadium. One in particular -- Nick Rosbotham. Upon being called out on strikes, the Mustangs shortstop 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 Rosbotham 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 Rosbotham 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 Rosbotham for 3 games. This year Rosbotham has hit at a .196 pace and produced 11 RBIs, 2 home runs and scored 11 runs. |
