League Suspends Moffat Monday, March 27th, 2034 The Florida State Seminoles were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to North Carolina at Bruisers Ballpark. One in particular -- Gene Moffat. Upon being called out on strikes, the Seminoles left 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 Moffat 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 Moffat 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 Moffat for 4 games. Moffat is batting .207 this year with 1 home run, 4 RBIs and 5 runs scored. He has 6 hits in 29 at-bats. |
