Wack Zach Greinke ejected after 4 pitches (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=261195)

Yeah, that was a bit excessive.

I guess they could rule ejection because Greinke's action of spiking the ball was showing up the umpire? :shrug:

What do the rules say for umps? Is there a no tolerance rule for spiking balls? Or is it just a judgment call thing?

The rules are that if you're on Joe West's crew, you're a thin-skinned asshole and you probably have a tiny dick.

**** that guy and his entire crew. It absolutely starts with West and the fact that he instills a shitty attitude in everyone on the field with him.

MLB needs to shit-can the whole bunch, they're a disgrace to the game.

The hell they do.

If you spike a helmet at the umpire, yes - they'll throw you.

Guys fire helmets into the field all the time, or rip bats down after they fly out.

Gblowfish is just an ass-hurt Royals fan who's getting off on Greinke getting tossed. If Holbrook pulled that bush-league stunt on a current Royal, he'd lose his damn mind.

Overreaction on the part of the umpire who didn't fully see what transpired. That said, Greinke hung his ass out there unnecessarily.

Now he has a chance to start three regular season games in a row. Yesterday, today, and the after the All Star game.

Rep to the whole post, but this part especially - this fact is so easy to overlook when you're up in arms about a shitty call or non call that it goes unmentioned, when it deserves to be.

What the hell...start him again today. And they did. And he gave up 3 runs in the first without spiking anything so far.

He's going to start again after the All-Star break too... making him the first pitcher to start 3 straight games since 1917, I believe.

I can't believe they let him go on for that long

But how many times do they not eject them for it?

Joe West has the ego the size of his stomach when his belt isn't buckled.

Speaking of great ump/manager arguements though, my all-time favorite...

The ump is awesome in this. Earl is too.

"aaaaahhhhh booommm". "You are going to the Hall of Fame? For what, ****ing up World Series'?"
