Now this was an out-of-the-box ejection ... involving a man way up in a luxury suite! 9WWOS
Washington Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo was tossed for yelling at umpires from a luxury suite in Atlanta on Sunday, with longtime crew chief Joe West saying, "enough is enough."
The 67-year-old West, on track to set the record for most games umpired in big league history next year, said the crew told the commissioner's office Friday that Rizzo was hollering at umpires earlier in the Nationals-Braves series.This latest incident occurred with the last-place Nationals batting in the seventh inning, trailing NL East-leading Atlanta by six runs in a game the defending World Series champions eventually lost 10-3.
Rizzo was standing outside the box, high above the plate at Truist Park, without a mask and was barking toward the field. With no crowd in the ballpark because of the coronavirus, someone on the field could be heard saying, "call security." West then walked to the Braves dugout to use a telephone."I think I heard someone yelling a couple days ago, too," Freeman said, adding, "There's no fans in the stands so we've got to keep the yelling to ourselves.""I talked to Hunter briefly," Martinez said.
