Brent Bowers was tossed from a road game against the Orange County Express on July 31, allegedly for repeatedly calling umpire Billy Van Raaphorst “a f...ing ” after a questionable call.

Van Raaphorst, who is openly gay, claims Bowers yelled, “You know what I heard? I heard you are a f...ing . The rumour from several managers and people at the league is that you are a fag.”
He says Bowers threatened him, screaming, “I ought to kick your ass, you f***** .”
