League Suspends Atlantic City RF Yi
Sunday, August 14th, 2033
The Atlantic City Enforcers were hoping for a more lenient ruling from the league office, but they didn't get it. In yesterday's game at Joey Naples Memorial Colloseum against the Youngstown Tune-Ups, Enforcers right fielder Jen-kan Yi was ejected by the home plate umpire after he vociferously questioned a third-strike call.
The commissioner's office issued a 4-game suspension, saying the league would not tolerate a player behaving in that manner. The disgruntled Yi refused to leave the field and kicked dirt on the umpire's shoes. His manager tried to keep him away from the umpire and physically had to remove him to the dugout with the help of the two other coaches.
Reached for comment after getting the suspension notice, Yi said he was too disgusted to talk about it.
Currently Yi is batting .274 with 13 home runs and 57 RBIs.
