The pitch looked a bit outside, but I've seen a lot worse called a strike, especially when certain Atlanta pitchers used to pitch.
Young definitely said something to get tossed. Up until then the umpire had shown great patience with the surly rat just standing there. I think the umpire handled it every bit as good as any pro umpire would have.
I hope this guy gets the maximum allowable suspension for this unexcusable act. It was far from just a "toss," he winged it pretty hard. Ought to be in jail right now.
