BILL HOHN tosses two Milwaukee coaches
 

Baseball Video Highlights & Clips | STL@MIL: Sveum and Randolph are ejected - Video | MLB.com: Multimedia

I found these searching for something else on mlb.com No real comment on the ejections...of course they were warranted.

The larger issue here is.....Nooooo! Not the ridiculous 1973 Mustache!

A BRACELET? The MAN IS WEARING A BRACELET. Why is his man wearing a BRACELET?

Larger issue? For whom, Brüno? :rolleyes:

A larger issue for mankind.

How can he come onto a baseball field with that BRACELET and that MUSTACHE. The guy looks like a complete buffoon

For all you know, he's a diabetic biker.

The first ejection came on the heels of a check swing where he called an offer from the plate when the bat barely flinched. Truly horrible call.

The second ejection came when the same thing happened the other way and this time he went to the line umpire who (correctly) ruled "no swing."

I was there. It was fun watching the two coaches get launched.

I guess Willie forgot he wasn't a manager anymore. I can understand the frustration. And, having Pujols up to bat for the second never looks good b/c the appearance that he gets benefits of the call though it was the right one on him. Just bad that PU didn't ask on the first one which appeared almost identical.

Oh well. The next day comes and they at least get to try it again.

My question is why he chooses to wear his ball bags on his @$$? That to me seems stranger then the 'stache or the bracelet.

I don't know about the ball bags, but one thing comes to mind on the moustache: I wonder if he paints it with Just For Men or Krylon. It's hard to tell.

And from asking for the appeal with his right hand to working a knee to ringing the guy up for flinching to tossing a guy from 80 feet away ... Hohn's just plain embarrassing.

Hohn is working the knee now? Last I saw him, he was in the deep scissors like he has always worked. His knee never used to touch the ground though.

Did anybody see Jerry Crawford dump Cincinattti Reds' Votto from U3 on an argued check swing Out call in last night's Padres/Reds game? Votto cursed him immediately, Crawford starts charging towards home, and Votto said something else and from right around 3rd base, Crawford launched him. I had just given my best ejection mechanic, because I knew Crawford would dump him, and no sooner had I given Votto the heave-ho, Crawford followed with his own version. Score one for the old guys!:)

I have wondered about this myself in the past. It's like he has them one loop back from where they belong. I think it has something to do with his deep stance, and it keeps them from getting bunched up between legs and abdomen.

There's a joke here, but even I am not going to go near it ...

Umpire Ejection Fanatsy League
 

The Left Field Corner

According to Left Field Corner, Hohn is tied with Tichenor for the lead in ejections with 6.

For my money, the bracelet has got to be the worst part of the whole deal here. This is worse than the way Robbie Drake used to wear sunglasses on the top of his hat that was on top of his curly mullet.

What would possess a grown man to wear a bracelet?

Better yet, What would make a grown man obsess over another man's fashion decisions?

I think the proper word would be curious. I am curious.
