Eject, eject: Marlins 5, Phillies 3

Gabe Kapler got his first ejection as the Phillies manager on Saturday, doing a lot of deep-throated shouting and aggressive finger-pointing.

I’ve seen a couple of “...so what ‘s Charlie Manuel up to right now?” out there, and all I can think is how there was nothing that endeared Charlie Manuel to people like giving an umpire a face full of s***. This was Kapler’s first attempt, and I buy the anger and frustration. It has to be there, and not just over an umpire deciding that Scott Kingery, who was hit by a pitch, actually swung and was out.
