TCU's Gould Suspended
Saturday, April 5th, 2025
The TCU Horned Frogs were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Stanford at Dingoes Ballpark. One in particular -- Rocky Gould. Upon being called out on strikes, the Horned Frogs third baseman 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 Gould 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 Gould 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 Gould for 3 games.
Gould is currently batting .155 with 5 home runs and 13 RBIs.
