Former Chattanooga Lookouts and current Mississippi Braves manager Phillip Wellman was ejected during Friday's game at AT&T Field. Wellman proceeded to go on a five minute tirade you can see by clicking the link below. (http://www.wrcbtv.com/news/sports/index.cfm?sid=8734)

Wow...this was quite a show. It makes Lou's little tantrum on Saturday look weak!

this guy should be fired! Though it was funny, there's no room for that in baseball. I'm all for a manager arguing a call, but this guy went overboard. He made a fool of himself, his team, and his organization. Just think of the kids that saw this guy do that: " Dad, why is he crawling around like an idiot?"

That is the funniest ejection I've ever seen.

Yeah, that was pretty hilarious. Do you think maybe he saw what Lou did and decided to one-up him so he would get on Sportscenter and stuff? I wonder how many games he gets suspended for if Lou got 4 games. :rolleyes:

Actually, he did that Friday night, and he got three games out of that.

That was funny! But crazy that he got less games then Lou.

That suspension was just by the Braves. The league hasn't done anything yet.

I think my favorite part of it all was how he made his own home plate. Piled the dirt on and outlined what he thought it should be.

The belly crawl with the grenade impression was hilarious!!!
