You might be thinking of Joe Niekro. Niekro was caught on the mound at Anaheim Stadium on August 3rd, 1987, with an emery board and a piece of sandpaper in his pockets. Niekro was pitching for the Twins, who at the time were tied 2-2 with the Angels. Niekro was removed from the game and replaced by Dan Schatzeder. Niekro received a ten-game suspension for his actions. The Twins won the game 11-3.

California Security guard carry gun to work?

It is my understanding that a California Security Guard is allowed to carry their firearm to and from their place of employment. However, I would encourage Guards to not travel in uniform when leaving work, therefore negating the ability to carry their firearm. Wearing a uniform give the impression of authority and even police officers have been killed off duty when wearing their uniform.
