The Dominican league suspended Jose Offerman, interim manager of the Licey Tigers, for life after an incident Saturday in which he tried to hit American umpire Daniel Rayburn in the face.

Leonardo Matos-Berrido, the league president, said the decision to ban Offerman can't be appealed due to the magnitude of the offense.

"The decision ... is definitive," said Matos-Berrido. "Offerman is excluded for life from Dominican baseball."
