Billings Loses CF Reséndez, Suspended by League Tuesday, May 18th, 2032 The Billings Mustangs were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Bronx at Bronx Ballpark. One in particular -- Julián Reséndez. Upon being called out on strikes, the Mustangs center fielder 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 Reséndez 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 Reséndez 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 Reséndez for 4 games. Currently Reséndez is batting .195 with no home runs and 5 RBIs. |
