LAS CRUCES, N.M. – Baseball coaches from a New Mexico high school say
they will file a formal complaint against an umpire who allegedly told a
Latino player to stop speaking Spanish during a game.

Emmanuel Burciaga, an assistant coach at Gadsden High School, told the
Albuquerque Journal that umpire Corey Jones told the Gadsden first baseman
to speak only English or face ejection during a game in Alamogordo on
Tuesday.

After Burciaga asked Jones, the first-base umpire, about the admonishment,
Jones said, "Anyone who speaks Spanish -- coaches or players -- will be
ejected," according to Gadsden High School baseball coaches.

Burciaga said he told Jones, "Our players will not stop speaking Spanish,
and they will not be ejected." Burciaga said Jones then "came walking
toward me and said, `Another word from you, Coach, and you will be
ejected."'

The home plate umpire, who is bilingual, intervened in the mid-game
conflict and told Jones there was no rule prohibiting players from
speaking Spanish on the field, Burciaga said. The other umpire assured
Jones that he understood Spanish and would put a stop to any foul
language, Burciaga said.

The school said it plans to file a complaint with the New Mexico
Activities Association, the governing body of the state's high school
sports.

"I'm not trying to get him (Jones) fired," Burciaga said. "My goal is to
educate the person."

Burciaga also said that after the second umpire backed up the Gadsden High
coaches' position that no rule prohibited their players from speaking
Spanish on the diamond, Jones appeared furious.

Jones declined to comment to the Albuquerque Journal. No phone number was
listed for him.

Dusty Young, associate director of the NMAA, said the organization will
investigate the dispute if a complaint is received. The NMAA executive
director would have the final say on disciplinary action if any is deemed
warranted, Young said.

The Gadsden Independent School District bumps up against the Mexican
border and has a student body that is 97 percent Latino.
Gadsden eventually lost to Alamogordo, 10-0.
