Guest Cherni Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 The guy got called out on strikes, walked away from the batters box and flung his bat which hit the home plate umpire in the head. WOW. There's no video showing him throwing it intentionally or by accident but darn. It's Dmitri Young's brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ump is lucky it glanced off his shoulder. Evidently this is his third run in with umpires, he should be banned from baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good thing he didn't get hit in the head. Young released an apology but they're expecting up to a 60 day suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Furley Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 They need to make an example of this guy and give him a lengthy suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would push for 2nd offense and you are gone. Everyone deserves a second chance, not a third, fourth, fifth...ho hum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
