Really didn't know how to react with 4 cops coming on the field with hands on weapons. I gave them all the room they needed.

I'm confused

I think Dallas was umpiring a softball game when the fuzz showed up to arrest one of the players. No?

From what I was told, there was a fight at the end of last season between two teams (or some of the guys from the two teams) in the parking lot. The parking lot fight was more bowing up and chest thumping-then both teams ended up at the same bar right up from the complex. Now mix beer and testosterone and a championship 2012 early spring league T-shirt and you have all the makings of a brawl to end them all. The guy in the picture took his bat-knocked a guy out and beat him till he broke the other guys ankle or leg.

Itâ€™s not softball-Itâ€™s adult day care sometimes. We have actually had to have cops come to the fields to escort umpires out sometime.
