Yer Out!
Funny news I read on Yahoo!
Apparently, in West Burlington, Iowa, an umpire throws out someone off the stadium.
Was it the pitcher? Nope.
Was it the one at bat? Nope.
Would you believe he threw out the entire crowd for "being unruly"?
The umpire, Don Briggs, said he didn’t have any problems with the players. The ones he had a problem with are the people on the stands, who he said were yelling and arguing. To add insult to injury, he also called the police as a precaution, but no arrests were made.
Wonder what the umpire experienced on his way to the stadium.

That umpire did a good deed, for the sake of the whole game. You know, it’s not polite to yell loudly at a game. Without the umpire making that decision, the crowd may impact or cancel the whole game.
