Mo'ne Davis reportedly asks college to reinstate player who made insulting comment image

Over the weekend, Bloomsburg University (Penn.) removed a player from the baseball team after it was revealed that he published an offensive tweet regarding Little League World Series phenom Mo'ne Davis.

By Monday Davis had proven why she's more mature at 13 years old than many fully grown adults. According to TMZ.com, Davis reached out to Bloomsburg University ask asked that the offender — Joey Casselberry — be reinstated on to the team.

"TMZ Sports spoke with a rep for Bloomsburg who tells us President David L. Soltz received an email from Davis and her coach in which they ask that Joey Casselberry's dismissal from the team be reconsidered."

Despite Davis' plea, the university is not budging with their decision to remove the first baseman from the team. " While Bloomsburg says they respect Davis' opinion and praise her for being incredibly mature about the situation -- the school will NOT reinstate the baseball player ... saying, "Right now we're standing firm."
