Oh how the mighty have fallen, sort of. Former Chicago Cubs, Royals, and several other teams, Pitcher Mike Montgomery, is currently playing for the KBO’s Samsung Lions. KBO League is the highest level league of baseball in South Korea. Last night Montgomery had quite the confrontation with the home ump. Apparently the former MLB pitcher was upset over the 12 second count on his pitches.

Montgomery had to be held back from the ump by his teammates after he completely melted down.

Montgomery did manage to throw a Rosin bag at the Ump.

Watch below:

Now that reminds me of something Kenny Powers would do.

You really can’t make this stuff up. That rosin bag very well may be his last throw in the KBO.
