Every thing setteled down after that.

Slow pitch version:
Umpire: Catch, go tell you pitcher to calm down or he will not be around long.
Catcher (yells from behind the plate): Hey, a$$hole, blue said knock it off or he's gonna toss ya.
Pitcher: Blue, maybe you should be the one leavin'
Umpire: Okay, you can go now.
Pitcher: (here it comes, the standard response from a SP player) What? You can't do that, I didn't curse!
