Dave Martinez Ripped Out 1st Base During Ejection Of The Year

If there’s one thing more entertaining than a baseball game, it’s an ejection. Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez gave us a very memorable ejection during Wednesday night’s game against the Chicago Cubs. Baseball managers are really notorious for meltdowns, and this one was good.

Here was the play in question.

Can someone tell me how Trea Turner is supposed to run to 1st here? Because he was called out for runner interference. pic.twitter.com/SETvzgwNXh

Never quite understood the removing of the bases to argue a call. I mean, what the hell is the point of that?

I do get the kicking of the dirt at an ump, that at least makes a little bit of sense.
