Although the game was reversed and counted, Marco was removed and a single -match suspended for what the authorities call ‘Sportsman’ behavior and ‘horse game’.
His father, Joe Rocco, has been ordered at Gloucester County, hoping to overthrow the suspension for the state tournament opener on Thursday.
Uz We’re trying to deal with him, Joe Joe Philadelphia said to Inquirer. “I tried to give some life lessons from this. He said to me, ‘Dad, I don’t understand which rule I broke.
“My answer to him, ‘Marco, sometimes life is not fair. This is the first lesson and my father, whether we win or lose, it is not important for you to fight for you. But only life is not fair and sometimes you can deal with the best way to do with it.’ ‘
In addition to confusion, Marco said he turned his bat in previous games without any problems. Joe tagged the hypocritical punishment and said Little League himself encouraged similar celebrations online.
A few hours before Marco’s team came to the field, a hearing was held in the afternoon. A state -level win would send them to the regions – Little League World Series.
