This was my old association, same commish who took me off championship game for tossing the HC, at his request.

My main thought was "man, that's old," since I'd already seen this article last year in the DP, and even participated in the forums. (I lived in W'burg last year, and umpired on the Southside.)

The real problem is there's too much disparity in the stories from all sides. Cave was allegedly (or never) warned, depending on who you believe. And there are a lot of locals there that definitely feel stars should be treated differently than other players.

But between Cave copping attitude, and getting warned previously during the game, then I would think he needed to go.
