Ejections piling up almost as fast as Marlins losses for Don Mattingly

LOS ANGELES -- Don Mattingly’s fury could earn him a spot in the record books. The manager for the Marlins was ejected on Friday for the fourth time this season, putting him on pace to shatter the single-season record for heave-hos by a Major League manager, an unofficial mark that has stood for 112 years.

John McGraw was tossed 13 times in 1905 according to Baseball Almanac while Retrosheet.org has the fiery Hall of Fame manager for the New York Giants at 11 ejections that season.

“No chance will I break that record,” Mattingly said Saturday.
