MLB Suspends Umpire Winters for Remainder of Season
It is really a shame that an seasoned umpire like Mike Winters would say crude and tasteless words to Milton Bradley. An Umpire or any other officials in any Professional Sport should be held accountable for their actions when they say vicious words or things to provoke a player. Even though Bradley has been known to have a hot temper in his Career. Umpire Winters should not say anything to ignite a player such as Bradley or any other in Fact. If Major League Baseball can fine a person over a period of time for using Steroids; I think Fines should be imposed on umpires who does such things as antagonizing a player. Umpire Winters got off light; I think he should have been suspended longer.
