Quickest ejection ever?
Well, I'm sure some of the older guys on the forum have had them quicker. Torre got tossed a couple years back at a plate conference. Anyway...
1st pitch of the game, 3 inches outside. I'm PU. Ball. Bench flares up a little bit. No big deal.
2nd pitch, grounder to SS. Close play at first, BU (who was 71 years old) has him safe. Bench really flares up. After it kind of dies down, manager from the bench says "Alzheimer's is an awful f***** disease isn't it, Blue?", directed at me. I simply pointed at him, took 2 or 3 steps towards him with my finger pointed at him, so he knew it was him, and turned around and gave the heave ho.
Was I too uptight? I just feel that when you say the F word, insinuate my partner has a mental disease, and direct it at me by saying Blue, it should be automatic, no?
No problems rest of the game...
