Point Pleasant Beach Mayor: Probe Baseball 'Cursing' (UPDATED)

Mayor Stephen Reid said he will call for an investigation on Tuesday into information he received that coaches were cursing at Point Pleasant Beach Little League players during a game last week.

Reid said he will ask officials to address information that coaches cursed at the 9-year-old baseball team during a game against Manasquan last week.

"I think something needs to be done," Reid said.

Reid said there was yelling and cursing at the players – including the "f-word" – after the players allegedly played poorly.

"There's never any room for cursing," Reid said. "You're basically hurting those student athletes."

Reid said he's talked to Little League leaders and parents and wants to see if actions need to be taken.

"They need to make sure they do the right thing," he said of the coaches.

This is a developing story. Patch will have more information as it comes in.
