Who gives a sh!t who the UIC was on that game...Joe was the CC (crew chief) that late afternoon, that's all that matters.

For the record, Cox did not get tossed when West orded the lights off in the fourth. He got tossed in the top of the fifth.

West ordered them off during the bottom of the fourth. Apparently they were turned on without him having called for them to be turned on. He ordered them off. To be fair to Joe...all pro umpires are taught from their days at umpire school not to turn on the lights until the top of an inning if at all possible. Joe wanted to enforce this edict.

After the fourth inning was over, Joe ordered the lights on. Problem was, however, that because they had just been turned off, they had to cool down before they could light back up.

Joe held up the game to wait for them to light up. Bobby got pissed that his pitcher was being delayed...he said a few things from the dugout...and got tossed. Bobby didn't even come out onto the field after being tossed.

I was reading Cox's lips at one time in one shot he called West "an a$$hole" . Now I do not know if this was before or after he tossed him but if it was before easy decision.

Joe West
 

I was sitting in the 5th row behind home plate for that game. Joe West was umpiring 3rd base for the first game of the double-header. I watched him say something to the pitcher as he moved closer to the mound. He then quickly gave Cox the heave-ho. We were all waiting for Bobby to come on to the field, but he never did. We had a good view of Lou laughing in the dugout at the whole mess.

Ejections such as these are rare.
The lights were on Joe West.
