My God. I hadn't seen the video until now and thought it was just a little flick of the bat. If that had hit him in the face, it could've knocked him out.
I mean, this quote from the article:

I'd hate to see it if it WAS violent and it DID mean to hit him.

So either the AMLU guy is an idiot or Latter isn't "professionally trained" cause goodness knows that a "professionally trained" umpire would've handled this situation differently. Maybe the AMLU guy's just a professionally trained idiot.
And to me, it looked like a routine, everyday ejection.
