League Gives Davidson Suspension Saturday, April 20th, 2024 The Texas A&M Aggies were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to UCLA at Ballpark of Shiprock College. One in particular -- Joe Davidson. Upon being called out on strikes, the Aggies 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 Davidson 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 Davidson 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 Davidson for 3 games. During the current season Davidson is batting at a .246 clip with 5 home runs and 13 RBIs. He has played in 37 games and scored 15 times. |
