League Gives Kubel Suspension
Monday, June 7th , 2004
Jason Kubel didn't like the strike call, turned around and had some angry words with the home plate umpire. Apparently he went too far. The result is a 2-game suspension by the league office. The league cited his failure to leave the dugout after the ejection was the reason for the suspension.
The Edmonton right fielder was ejected in a game at TELUS Field against the Las Vegas 51s following a controversial third-strike call.
Kubel is currently batting .265 with 11 home runs, 28 RBIs and 28 runs scored. He has 58 hits in 219 at-bats.
