I just watched the clip of Tito getting ejected last night, and holy shit. No wonder the Red Sox radio announcers sounded so amazed while it was going on. Terry has never once gotten that angry in his entire career with the Red Sox. There was none of the flamboyantly sarcastic body language that I so love to see when he starts yelling at an ump. There was just tense, red-faced, screaming fury. Francona was not fucking around out there. If this was a bar brawl, he'd be shattering a beer bottle against the bar and going for Iassogna's throat with the jagged end.

The funniest part of watching it was that the clip on MLBTV is from the A's feed, so the announcers are all, "Yup, Francona's having his say out there" and I'm going YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA.

Why are my teams cursed with all the stupidest umps lately, anyway? I really am going to have to start keeping a literal list of umps I hate and why and because it's starting to exceed my memory capacity.
