Jim Leyland Ejected After Awesome Tirade (Video)

Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland went on an awesome tirade last night during the Tigers-Blue Jays game. Check out what happened during the 7th inning that led to his ejection:

I was watching that live on Monday and joked that it lasted so long there was enough time to read an entire Bill Simmons article while he was ranting. Let’s make sure everyone knows that reversing the call was the right decision by the umpires, but I understand why Leyland was ticked. Still, I’m always pleased when umpires get the call right, regardless of whether or not they have to reverse their initial decision. You telling me Leyland wouldn’t have been satisfied had the umpires done that with Armando Galarraga?
