Watch Harris County police officer and Youth coach Kenneth Wendt abuse little kids in the handshake line after a Baseball game with the video viral
Little league sports are taken entirely too seriously by adults. Particularly if they lose.
The most recent instance comes from Texas, namely from Kenneth Wendt, a sergeant in Harris County and a volunteer minor baseball coach. The team he was coaching lost, and he wasn’t too happy about it. Rather than being responsible and accepting the defeat maturely, he behaved immaturely during the team handshakes following the game.

After the video went viral, Wendt was sacked as the coach and is currently the subject of a criminal investigation. If he treats children in that manner, imagine how he would treat adults. He ought to be fired from that position as well.
According to the constable’s office, a Harris County Constable Precinct 5 sergeant has been relieved of duty while an inquiry into his behaviour during a child baseball game in west Houston last weekend is ongoing.
The inquiry into Kenneth Wendt’s bad sportsmanship, which was captured on camera after his 9-and-under Scorpions Baseball team lost to Prospects Baseball on Saturday, is being handled by the Houston Police Department, according to Harris County Constable Precinct 5.
After their game, the two youth baseball teams queued up for high-fives.
As per what blacksportsonline.com reports, according to parents, Wendt, the youth coach for the Scorpions Baseball club—the team that lost—could be seen on camera shoving the first players in line from the rival team and acting aggressively.
They enter and give you a hefty slap on the hand. You will then say, “Hey, don’t do that.” Victor Torres, the baseball coach for Prospects 9U, remarked that as an adult, you wouldn’t anticipate it. “I felt angry. I was very angry.”
His actions, according to the Scorpios Baseball organisation, were undesirable and inconsistent with the values of the group. The following day, he was dismissed from the group.
No other information regarding this occurrence can be disclosed, according to Precinct 5, until the inquiry is finished.
