It doesn't appear Kemp will be suspended which is a travesty. Just because he is a star player in a pennant race should not give him a free pass. He acted like a 4 year old and made contact with Umpires. But remember, Joe Torre managed him for 3 years. I liked Torre as a Manager but hate him in the role he is in now. He has repeatedly left umpires to hang out to dry.<br /><br />http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120818&content_id=36918308&vkey=news_mlb&c_id=mlbRusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00077541258320019256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-67723896817537971422012-08-17T22:04:49.767-07:002012-08-17T22:04:49.767-07:00Oh, and Tschida's ejection mechanic is AWESOME...Oh, and Tschida's ejection mechanic is AWESOME. <br /><br />"Boom.....see ya"Zachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17288543795321578552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-53382638988561239142012-08-17T22:03:28.791-07:002012-08-17T22:03:28.791-07:00I'm glad Campos took care of business.

When umpires take care of business, they're accused of having "rabbit ears," which is just silly -- if a player yells from a dugout so that I can hear it at the plate, it's meant to be heard.<br /><br />I can't imagine pro players getting all rah-rah like this and the timing is suspect to the point where only an idiot would believe he was yelling for a reason other than to shove it up Campos's backside. Campos was having no part of it. And Donnie Softball is probably wondering why all the umpires are out to get him.RichMSNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18384563269998106611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-16261245795238184462012-08-17T16:48:38.880-07:002012-08-17T16:48:38.880-07:00Hey Mundane, you don't have to agree.

Maybe this comes from not being on a professional baseball field. Kemp is not a good guy. Is it possible he barked multiple times (as Mattingly acknowledged) then in a way to shove it in the A$$ of Campos yelled loudly "let's go dre". Is that something kemp did? I can tell you, this isn't ra ra amateur baseball; professinal players don't scream for players during an at bat to root em on.<br /><br />Kemp is clearly not being nice. He can't keep his mouth shut and deserves to leave. If he was innocent he wouldn't have caused that commotion that was a circus upon being ejected.<br /><br />That being said, it is also possible Campos does not communiate well with players and managers which draws their ire.tmachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15801025280017627526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-77803507515776691522012-08-17T12:51:22.277-07:002012-08-17T12:51:22.277-07:00Sounds like you can hear someone from the bench ke...Sounds like you can hear someone from the bench keep saying, "C'mon.

It looks like it will probably have to be deleted from the record and made an unofficial ejection. Hapened with Culbreth-Wedge last year. MLB is usually very good at updating box scores with ejections, but every once in awhile one will slip through the cracks and it looks like that happened here.Russhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00077541258320019256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-7557108216798827462012-08-17T12:39:42.602-07:002012-08-17T12:39:42.602-07:00In the video Russ linked above, you can see the Bl...In the video Russ linked above, you can see the Blanton ejection at the 1:57 mark.UmpsRulenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-78963523503952655022012-08-17T12:35:17.993-07:002012-08-17T12:35:17.993-07:00Is the Blanton ejection considered official?Is the Blanton ejection considered official?UmpsRulenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-38088183200788645162012-08-17T12:13:09.967-07:002012-08-17T12:13:09.967-07:00The second ruling has been challenged.
