The St. Petersburg Times reports that Tampa Bay Devil Rays outfielder Elijah Dukes was tossed out of a game in the Dominican Republic for an incident with an umpire.
Dukes reacted angrily after being called out on strikes in the ninth inning and was ejected after going chest-to-chest with the umpire, and had to be restrained by several teammates at different times.
Given Dukes’ history, this isn’t exactly surprising. Still, you hate to see stuff like this happen…
