Kalamazoo, MI - Six-year-old viral sensation, Coach Drake has apologized for his past behavior by gifting the umpire flowers, balloons, and a huge teddy bear during a recent Kalamazoo Growlers game.

The coach, famous for his outrageous 'tantrums' where he threw bats and balls onto the field after being ejected seems to have put this behavior behind him.

Drake is seen walking towards the umpire, exchanging words then heading back to the dugout only to come out with a bouquet of flowers. The umpire, confused, can be seen smelling the flowers. Drake then returns to the dugout to come out again with balloons and then makes the trip a final time to return with a giant teddy bear bigger than him.

The Kalamazoo Growlers will be hopeful that this marks the end of Drake's ejections as it is rumored the team has paid a substantial amount in fines due to his outbursts.
