Beckman Suspended, Out 4 Games Monday, December 18th , 2045 The league office has taken action against High Desert third baseman Tom Beckman for inappropriate action and aggressive conduct in the Mavericks game against the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes. He has been issued a 4-game suspension. Beckman was ejected from the game yesterday after arguing a called third strike. He first argued with the plate umpire. Then Beckman moved up the first-base line, waving his fists at the umpire as the dispute continued. As he left the field, he also argued with the crew chief, who was umpiring at third base. His manager finally convinced him to leave the field as the umpires were threatening to forfeit the game. This year Beckman is hitting .328, produced 11 RBIs and 4 home runs, scored 11 times and gotten on base at a .386 rate. |
