Diamondbacks LF Díaz Suspended 2 Games Monday, June 26th , 2023 The Arizona (DSL) Diamondbacks were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Boston (DSL) at El Toro Complex. One in particular -- Bernardo Díaz. Upon being called out on strikes, the Diamondbacks 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 Díaz 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 Díaz told reporters, "He was awful out there. They played 'Three Blind Mice' for him." For his escapades and after-the-game oration, the league office suspended Díaz for 2 games. Thus far this year Díaz is batting .409 with 1 home run, 2 RBIs and 7 runs scored. |
