Another YouTube, another crazy manager. Mississippi Braves manager Phillip Wellman took issue with an umpire's call last night:
Watch out Carrot Top, give this guy two bases and a rosin bag and you'll be relegated to pay phone commercials. Oh wait . . . but this does give me a good idea. How about putting one real grenade on the pitcher's mound in case the hurler throws himself into a jam. For example, if Albert Pujols is at the plate, and the bases are loaded, and your name is Brad Lidge. "Here you go Albertus Magnus! Try and hit this, you Latin heartthrob son of a bitch!" Just don't hold it too long, or you might end up like Mrs. Glick's brother Asa when he attempted to toss one at Kaiser Bill in the Great War. -KD
(Eternal rewards to Jay for the tip.)

KD is the Dennis Miller of arcane Simpson's references.
that rosin bag grenade throw was by far the highlight of the baseball decade

Yeah, that was a thing of beauty. Nice work, Nerdlinger.
A recapitulation worthy of a Game 5 LeBron moment of Double A managers–oooo, and a subsequent baseball doctoring incident to boot! (So, um, does that suggest that maybe he had a point?)

"Next he got down on all fours and crawled like a snake as he inched towards the mound." See, snakes have "fours." Oh, Tennessee, keep that Creationist torch a-burnin'!

I noticed one of the teams was called the Chattanooga Lookouts. Eh? Had some other team called dibs on Choo Choos? That's just mean. The manager reminds me of Keenan Wynn's character, Hezekiah Sturdy, in The Great Race.
what'd he do with the bases?
He starts off with the plate covering, then pulls a double McClendon with extra base topping, then has the aim to throw the rosin bag without hitting the ump, and salutes the crowd before leaving. Well done, sir.
Ha ha. He said fuck.
