This past Saturday night was a bad time to piss people off if you were youth softball umpire David Ray Kelly or Suge Knight. Kelly was involved in a heated argument during a 10-year-old girl’s league softball tournament in Tennessee, and Knight argued with some men inside and outside of a Hollywood, Ca. nightclub. Both men ended up on the losing side of their disputes.
While the story of Suge Knight getting knocked out was treated like the house landing on the Wicked Witch, umpire puncher Jonathon Rose was only greeted by the police. From WSMV.com:
Witnesses said the incident occurred after a dispute over a play at the athletic fields on Park Drive in Columbia during a 10-year-old girls’ league softball tournament game.
The altercation apparently intensified when umpire David Ray Kelly called Summertown Lady Volcanoes assistant coach Jonathan Rose a liar, according to what witnesses told police.
Police said as Kelly turned to walk away, Rose punched him and knocked him unconscious.
The game was canceled after the fight, and Rose was arrested on charges of aggravated assault. The saddest part of the story is that the Lady Volcanoes have been kicked out of the league because of an assistant coach with a mean hook. The parents hope to put the team back together under a new name.
I don’t think a name change will help Suge live this down.
