Rauch Suspended, Out 3 Games Saturday, July 11th , 2026 The Minnesota (FCL) Twins were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to St. Louis (FCL) at Target Field. One in particular -- Mark Rauch. Upon being called out on strikes, the Twins shortstop gave the ump quite an earful. For that, the man in blue gave him the thumb and sent him to an early shower. But the disgruntled Rauch lingered on the field for another five minutes, berating the umpire. Finally his manager got him off the field and into the clubhouse. But it got worse after the game, when Rauch told reporters, "He was awful out there. They played 'Three Blind Mice' for him." For his escapades and after-the-game oration, the league office suspended Rauch for 3 games. |
