Coqui SS Ramos Suspended 2 Games
Sunday, June 16th, 2109
The Caguas Coqui were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Resistencia at Caguas Grounds. One in particular -- José Ramos. Upon being called out on strikes, the Coqui shortstop 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 Ramos 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 Ramos 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 Ramos for 2 games.
Currently Ramos is batting .231 with 9 home runs and 26 RBIs.
