Tony's not one of the umpires who usually confronts people.Some umpires will toss someone after a small arguement,I've only seen tony toss someone if its really bad,which this one appears to be.
The pitcher probably said something,and tony obviously didnt like what he said.Balls and strikes are judgement calls,and players cant agrue them,so the pitcher was asking to be tossed.
Tony should be suspended for a week or two if this is true,only because chest bumping someone isnt really right.
It was a hot day, he was probably just warn out and was fed up with it.
Just my oppinion.....
