DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (CNN) -  It's not uncommon to see an umpire eject a baseball player.  Or a manager.  But the stadium D-J?

That's what happened in Daytona Beach Wednesday during a minor league game between the Daytona Cubs and the Fort Myers Miracle.

After an umpire's call, the Cubs' intern D-J Derek Dye cranked up the song "Three Blind Mice."

Home plate umpire Mario Seneca was not amused.  And he kicked Dye out of the game.

The Cubs beat the Miracle 2-to-1 in the Florida State League Class A game.
