No explanation given on player being tossed from game
The situation;
bottom of the third, game is 1-0, Kevin Brown gives up a HR, making the game 1-2,
Minnie Minoso comes up to bat for the first time in the game, is hit by a pitch, charges the mound, and Minnie Minoso is ejected, rightfully so
Kevin Brown, however, is also ejected, which makes no sense.
Minnie Minoso has a HBP ratio of about 1% of his at-bats, so he has prone to being hit by pitch, likely crowds the plate.
Kevin Brown had given up a single in the two innings prior, the walk in the third and then the HR.
What is the justification here? Did Kevin Brown kick Minnie Minoso's ass? Is that justification? 'cause it wasn't for Nolan Ryan vs. Ventura.
Did Cal Ripken do a bat toss or yell a slur at Kevin Brown after his HR? Did this result in Kevin Brown being given a warning, and nothing happening to Cal Ripken? Laugh.
