Wack Zach Greinke ejected after 4 pitches



Greinke ejected after spiking ball


Zack Greinke was ejected in the first inning of Saturday’s Brewers-Astros game after spiking a ball following a close call at first base.


With a runner on third, Astros second baseman Jose Altuve hit a ground ball in between first and second to score the run. First baseman Corey Hart made a diving stop to field it and tossed to Greinke who raced to first. Greinke touched the bag at the same time as Altuve, so first base umpire Sam Holbrook called Altuve safe.


Greinke turned around and spiked the ball, likely because he was frustrated with the call and/or giving up the run (Carlos Gomez misplayed a ball in center to give Jordan Schaefer a triple to lead off the game). Holbrook immediately ejected Greinke, who had only faced two batters and thrown four pitches.


Milwaukee manager Ron Roenicke came out to discuss the call with Holbrook and was ejected for arguing.


The questionable ejection put the Brewers in a horrible spot because it meant the bullpen would have to pitch almost the entire game. It also came at a bad time for Milwaukee as Greinke is being mentioned in trade talks, and the quick ejection prevented interested teams from being able to see him pitch.


It’s also worth mentioning that Holbrook is part of umpire Joe West’s crew, which is notorious for questionable calls.


Here's a video of Greinke talking about the ejection after the game. He says he was mad at himself for making a mental mistake on the play:

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
