The problem is that if Estabrook had ejected Kendall, all the people who blast Estabrook now would say, "He didn't even turn around. How can that umpire eject a catcher who did *nothing* to show him up?"

Estabrook can't win, unless he's willing to take whatever pile of crap Kendall gives him without doing anything.
