Pitcher gets ejected for tossing his belt to the ump, a breakdown

promo code john boy before we get into

why he got ejected we got to just watch

lance lin do his thing a little bit

because he's my favorite pitcher in all

of baseball he's got runners in scoring

position two outs a little bit of a jam

in the first inning 30 pitches but he

gets out of it with the little chopper

to second to first immediately starts

[ __ ] talking himself you happy

you [ __ ] piece of [ __ ]

now top third he's in a big jam base is

loaded no outs four-seam fastball

actually looks like a cutter to me

cutter top of the zone for strike two

and then the sinker the two seamer

running away from the batter awesome and

he's like why did that take so long why

am i even in this jam next up sinker in

to harrison for strike one sinker into

harrison for strike two cutter away for

strike three the ball went in it went in

it went away it's easy peasy he's got

two pitches the fastball can go right

down the middle it can go to the left it

can go to the right it does what lance

wants it to do and against chapman he

wants it to go right down the middle for

strike one and then right down the

middle again for strike two and then the

full count right down the middle again a

little sinker catches it out of the jam

all right let's get into the good stuff

now here's a funny little lance tidbit

that ball was hit on the ground and it's

an out and when balls hit the ground

like that they get a little scuff mark

on it and the batter may ask the umpire

hey can we change out that ball i don't

want the pitcher to take advantage of

that scuff mark that's what happens here

not sure what's happening here

and just a silly goose lancelin the

silly use oh he wants the new ball just

tell him to foul it off he'll get a new

one and i'll get a strike out of it and

everyone's laughing and having fun and

lancelin what a bully but he's so funny

and then he does get the foul ball okay

let's get into the ejection enough

lancelin just fought her because i'm

happy about it he's gonna end the fourth

inning with the ground out to short

ends the inning now they're doing the

sticky stuff checks where the umpire

usually meets the pitcher at the foul

line as he walks off checks his glove

his hat and his belt it usually happens

up here here's the umpire slowly walking

here's lance he's walking away now he

realizes like oh okay so he takes his

hat off he takes his glove off he sets

him on the railing for the umpire to

check him out you'll see the umpire say

hey i need your belt too and then you

see lance say oh okay and then he takes

his belt off and then he lowers his

hands and then he raises him up and he

does a careful little toss to the umpire

it falls off the railing and the umpire

ejects him for throwing his belt at him

maybe that could be the reason or for

refusal to comply with the checks maybe

that could be the reason both of those

would be wrong because he complied and

like if you look at this it's the most

ginger of tosses where it looks like

he's trying to make it land on the

railing it's not thrown in aggression at

all and the umpire throws him out and

everyone's like what

why

are you serious

it's like a big question of like are you

serious

is this really an ejection and lance is

gonna come back out because he was going

to the training room to get something

work on like ankle retaped or shoulder

something this or maybe just had to take

a [ __ ] and this um is like but you did

throw your belt at him and he's like

what

and then lance says hey you know what

thank you for letting me know you're a

big [ __ ] i appreciate it no no no truly

i appreciate it uh i won't forget that

though yeah okay bye and that ump's like

well i had to throw you are you through

and

you know ron kolpa's like all right

let's go let's go let's go let's go

let's go let's go you know what that is

that's uh john voight at the end of

varsity blues let's go let's go let's go

let's go like defeated knows he's wrong

but just clapping let's go let's go

let's go

let's go after that time now

let's go let's go

let's go

man i've seen a lot of ejections and

every time i make these videos there's

always people that take the ump side

first

and sometimes they have a leg to stand

on if you take the ump side on this one

i think you out yourself as someone who

just can't see both sides and someone

who's irrelevant to any future debate

because there's no taking the upside on

this it was the ginger toss of a belt

because he was going to get checked out

in training after the umpire was not

there he was late getting over so i left

my glove in my hat and then uh while i

was going down the dugout trying to see

the trainers because i'm dealing with

something he yells at me that he needs

to see my belt so i toss it up and then

he throws me out

were you expected to get tossed at that

point no i mean he's late getting over

there and then i'm trying to get some

work done to go back out for the fifth

and

you know obviously he's

i hurt his feelings

man and then you gotta hear what larussa

said it's really great yeah i don't know

i can't i

can't i can't speak for the umpires and

and and the league well how they're

going to look at that

um

so hope not

i'm hated i don't know what he did but i

hope i don't think he was real

[Music]

you know

say the kind of words

anyway i don't know all right finished

your sentence one time for us tony come

on now he was like three words and out

he abandoned every thought there anyway

there you have it i think this is in the

running for softest ejection of the year

and i don't know if it's got

anyone chasing it down

terrible

stupid and dumb taking innings away from

a guy chasing down a cy young because he

gingerly tossed his belt towards you

when you asked him for his belt
