Brad Ausmus lost his mind as he was ejected from Monday’s Detroit Tigers game against the Minnesota Twins.
Ausmus’ Tigers scored eight runs in the bottom of the first to get off to a great start, but then they saw the lead evaporate over the next few innings. By the bottom of the fourth, the score was 8-7. So you can imagine why Ausmus was frustrated then when Nick Castellanos was called out on strikes by Doug Eddings to end the inning, leading the manager to go nuts.
A hot mic from FSN Detroit caught Ausmus dropping all kinds of profanity (beware of the bad language):

Before he made his way off the field, Ausmus took off his jersey and covered the plate with it:

That was a nice performance by Ausmus, but he has a long way to go if he wants to match stripping master Joe Mikulik.
