Great audio from Greg Gibson (Warning: Ejection Video)

I find it funny that Hillman wanted or tried to go toe to toe with big Tim McClelland. Whether the PU was right or wrong is beside the point, you don't sit in the dugout and sniper at an umpire. I think both ejections were justified.

The first one with Greinke was absolutely correct. He was being an idiot.

Hillman definitely deserved to go in the second one. If Gibson doesn't give a warning, then if someone gets hit and he tosses a pitcher, the rats all squeal because he didn't warn anyone. They can't have it both ways.

Hillman knows his time in K.C. is limited, so I bet he knows he has nothing to lose.

I love the "nobody in the ballpark would have even known what was happening until the big mean umpire threw one of our guys out" line.

Couple of idiots in the dugout, and two more in the booth.

Hey, that's my number! Nicely done, and well-warranted, IMO.

Exactly. So in other words, a Rat can say about anything he wants as long as no one in the stands can hear it or see him yelling it.

Reminds me of the story Evans tells of the batter who calmy and quietly called him a cocks^cker. Evans dumped him. The manager argues "are you going to toss him for just saying that?"

Jim relpies, "Got to, or the catcher might believe it's true."

I heard Grinke say, "hey Greg" couldnt make out the rest. Anyone make it out?
