This may just be common sense, but it usually goes without saying: When it comes to Little League baseball, drinking beer at a game a bad idea, right? Apparently one person who needs to be reminded of this is "Desperate Housewives" actor Doug Savant:
So this is a little reminder for the parents out there: When it comes to being a Little League parent, alcohol is a no-no.

TMZ has learned [Doug] Savant was recently suspended by his kid's L.A. little league -- after a concerned parent noticed the actor secretly downing a brew out of a paper cup while in the stands.
We're told the parent in question confronted Doug -- calling him out for violating park rules -- and the poor guy had to face the Board of Directors soon after the incident.There's a couple of bits to this story that make it even more inexcusable:
- Doug Savant is president of the Los Angeles Little League. Well, at least he was - he has been suspended, at least temporarily, from his post. In theory, he would have been responsible for making sure parents abide by a "code of conduct", making sure to behave at their children's games.
- Since Savant was drinking the beer out of a paper cup, he clearly knew he wasn't supposed to be doing it at a Little League game and was trying to cover it up.
So this is a little reminder for the parents out there: When it comes to being a Little League parent, alcohol is a no-no.
