vs. WHITE SOX, 5/28 (Game One)

[isestrex]

He should be ejected for game 2.

[Going Underground]

Manny ejected.

Why?Arguing strikes?

[Rene88]

Our offense is offensive.

[gmelson26]

The ump behind the plate has enough to worry about getting balls and strikes right. Just make it so the 1st and 3rd base umps call check swings.

[O's84]

Why?Arguing strikes?

Check swing call.

[Malike]

No wonder my friends who are fans of other teams think Manny is a punk. He's got quite the reputation at a young age.

[Il BuonO]

Manny is not calmunderfire. Remember that guy? Heck, maybe he is.

[gmelson26]

He should be ejected for game 2.

What sense does that possibly make?

[eddie83]

He should be ejected for game 2.

Why? Is this Little League?

[ArtVanDelay]

He should be ejected for game 2.

Yeah, great idea. :rolleyestf:

[gmelson26]

You don't slam your bat down in the major leagues. Its just not something a professional should do.

Yeah don't do that, but I do not blame him for turning and giving the ump his mind.. home plate ump simply don't have the best view and should get help every time.

[isestrex]

Why?Arguing strikes?

Check swing call.

That's not why he was ejected. The ump made a bad call on a check swing. Manny asked for an appeal to 1B but the ump wouldn't do it. In frustration, Manny slammed his bat down hard. Up until that point it was all completely the umpire's fault. But Manny's hot temper made him look like a child. The ejection was completely warranted.

If I were Buck, I would sit him for game 2.

Why?Arguing strikes?

I think it's under the de facto rule that throwing equipment = ejection.

[Il BuonO]

Damn' date=' forgot there was a game today. Interesting stat, everyone has struck out today except for Chris Davis.[/quote']

Impossible.

[O's84]

You don't slam your bat down in the major leagues. Its just not something a professional should do.

:agree:

He's uber talented as they say but he's got to mature. You can't keep doing these things in the Major Leagues.
