Saw this and it crossed my mind how childish baseball is. I tried to imagine something like this happening in another sport and the closest I could think of was when Bobby Knight used to flip out but he was more of an isolated person, while in baseball it seems to be more common place.
Then it got me thinking about all the other shyt that happens in baseball. Throwing 90mph balls at cats cause the pitcher is mad, heard dude say he could have chosen to injure a guy on a slide but he chose not to. He openly admitted to deciding not to injuring another player.
Just a lot of immature shyt

That's my manager. :to:

You're saying football, basketball, and hockey players don't get at each other the same way out of pettiness?

And as far as Managers, MLB doesn't have the extensive replay the other sports do. Managers blow up when they feel like the wrong call was made and they can't do anything about it. They blow up to let everyone know how wrong the umpires were. The replay system MLB added recently actually stopped most of the Manager blow ups. You hardly see them anymore. Lou Peniella had some great tirades, but you won't see too much of this again in MLB again because of replay:



Not for shyt like a dude hitting a HR and staring a pitcher down. And those sports actually have contact with eachother so if a dude keeps throwing elbows or something a brush up will happen.
As for manager blow ups all that theatrical shyt is just clownish. It's one thing to yell but to be all up in the ump face as close as they get, then kicking dirt all over the place. shyt is just immature. Then folks always have the nerve to talk about the honor and prestige of professional baseball. shyt is a damn circus
