Mets manager ejections in years they won the World Series
In years when the New York Mets with the World Series, the managers get along a lot better with the umpires.
The baseball manager equivalent to a hockey fight, I’m happy to see Baseball Reference tracks manager ejections. When exploring this statistic, I found something interesting about former New York Mets manager Davey Johnson.
Johnson was ejected 13 times as the Mets manager. His five ejections in 1985 topped the list as a personal best. One thing I did notice is that in 1986 and 1988 Johnson didn’t get ejected at all.
