This is pretty funny. I am looking for video of the guy going nuts. Koby Clemens was on 2nd when it happened. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060626/ap_on_sp_ba_ne/bbm_manager_ejection_2 Edit: Holy crap I found it! This is one of the best tirades I have ever seen! http://youtube.com/watch?v=4tBFSrm3yFE
I saw this last evening on ESPNEWS and I called my friend and told him to make sure and watch it. I thought it was hilarious but a bit childish too. Any bets on what his penalty will be. LOL!
"I thought the strike was over? When will the real umpires show up? That's what I want to know. Because that was an abortion. That was bad. The whole series was awful....I just wish the umpire's association would train their young men to have a personality. I could get two mannequins at Sears and umpire better than what I saw this whole series....I already talked to John Henry, I've got that covered. This ain't my first rodeo....I didn't touch anybody. I never bumped anybody....I actually cleaned home plate for them, so they should give me a tip for that." Outstanding! Joe Mikulik was a longtime Astros farmhand, btw.
That is Mikuluk? LOL - I waited tables with him at Pappas in Houston when we were younger and he was playing at San Jac....wow ! DD
Yah man I like it- Legends fans have been getting some awesome baseball lately. First the Rocket pays them a visit and then this manager goes ape ****. Definately worth the price of admission.
I forgot who but someone on Baseball Tonight was calling for his firing. Probably Steve Phillips. He said this is A ball and a manager (teacher) needs to set a better example. A tirade is unnecessary when wins and losses dont' count. I agree.
I loved that blow up. I saw that then Gar and Berkman had theirs. It was great. I wish our guys would have all got pissed off and maybe spark a fire under them. They are showing their tiredness and lack of confidence. We are losing our guys y'all.
This version showed the bat boy about to fetch the bats and then ducking for cover in case more came flying out--too funny.
