THORNTON, Colo. - Two men's baseball leagues in this Denver suburb are in trouble after neighbors caught umpires with their pants down - literally.
The umpires were seen changing their clothes in front of a high school in Thornton before games at the school's ballfield.
Neighbors say they tried reasoning with the men, but say the umpires continued to undress in public.
One witness says she saw one umpire with his pants down to his ankles. She says he was trying to hide from her when she confronted him about his behavior.
One of the leagues has been banished.
School officials relied on instant replay to make their call. A resident caught one of the umps on videotape.
