League Gives Ozezera Suspension Wednesday, August 24th, 2039 Kingston Township right fielder Jorge Ozezera has been suspended for 4 games for an on-field tirade with an umpire that left Ozezera standing in his socks. He was ejected from the Knights-Montana game for disputing a strike call. Ozezera let fly with a flurry of expletives, threw down his bat and hat, then went nose-to-nose with the umpire, bobbing his head and screaming. He turned to kick the dirt around home plate, ripped off his shoe and showed it to the umpire, then pulled back his sleeve and shoved his armpit toward the umpire's face. Ozezera continued to argue, kicking off his other shoe. Another umpire stepped between them. After slamming the second shoe down, the irate player went over to the Knights dugout, fished out a batting doughnut from a bag, then paired it with another to make a mock pair of eyeglasses before slamming both weights down. The tour de farce ended after several minutes of confrontation. Ozezera finally retrieved his bat, shouted a few more choice words and walked into the dugout. A bat boy retrieved his shoes and hat...and his eyeglasses, too. Ozezera did not return a message seeking comment today. So far this year, Ozezera is batting .245 with 4 home runs and 18 RBIs. |
