Six EJ's

Not a fun situation to be in, but each of the ejections seems justified and necessary.

It wasn't any fun. But, paraphrasing recent postings on ejections, I was trying to do my job properly so no other umpire has to clean up this "mess".

Obviously, Arnold did not sufficienty establish that he was "in charge" at the plate meeting.

Tim.

The real crime is that he didn't share with his partner.

I love the "where was his warning?" from the head rat after tossing a player...sometimes warnings are okay...but many, many other times...an ejection is just fine...I just wish more guys had the guts to toss players managers...especially in the adult leagues that I work 1 man. There are teams out there that will attempt to own you if you don't gain control by starting early in the pregame by being firm in your pregame, being on time, etc...

In the past, when I've been asked about a warning, I've replied, "You want a warning? Okay, the next person who does that will also be removed."
