LaSorda never said the magic word as Vinnie would say,he didn't get ejected for as much as he argued!

like the swing - BTW Tommy finally met an ump with a bigger belly

Tommy is out of line. For as much praise people give him, Tommy also was out of line often with the umpires. This is another case of that. I didn't see any reason for Tommy to get ejected but the argument was pointless.

Tommy was profane. The argument was not pointless. The umpires kicked the shit out of the call. Tommy was right. Reggie had no rights as a retired runner, and intentionally hindered the defense. The umpire says,” Tommy, it has to be intentional.” Yeah, absolutely correct, interference with a thrown ball must be intentional. Jackson cheated. He absolutely intentionally interfered with the throw. Batter/ runner should have been called out, and if that was not the third out, all runner’s returned to their time of pitch base. LaSorda infuriated fans in The City because fans would boo him and he would blow kisses to them. Candlestick Park in south city had no way for the visitors to get to the clubhouse except walk to the right field Giants bullpen and exit the field through a small door. When Tommy would get ejected fans would boo him the entire walk ( slow, because he ate a lot of linguini with a rich clam sauce) to the clubhouse tunnel, and Tommy loved it- he blew kisses and laughed- he was a showman; he was good for baseball, and I rooted for him to lose every game he managed.

rest in peace beautiful JOHN MCSHERRY

Surprised he wasn't ejected

You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.

What children the umpires are these days. Lasorda would have been gone before even getting a word out in todays baseball.

It's the PC culture that Selig and Manfred have instituted. Umpires shielding players and managers from other umpires, you can't argue ejections or warnings anymore. I bet Lasorda would get suspended today for his confrontation with the Philly Phanatic.

Fan interference should ALWAYS go AGAINST the home team. On a judgment call, why should they benefit from the actions of their fans?

My god I loved Lasorda since the days of Fernando Valenzuela. He stands up there, half the size of the ump, yelling as though he had a foot over him.

LaSorda was a jerk, a bully. Whining always about everything

Seriously. What the heck is Lasorda arguing? It is clear as day.

He wanted it ruled a triple, which is the rarest type of base hit there is. Usually, when there is a triple it is hit into an area of the park where there are many angles created by the walls and the ball bounces around crazily. Typically, they are hit into the right field corner which is farthest from third base.

Notice how John didn't throw him out for getting in his face and arguing the call? That's back when umpires were good. They all suck now.

It's umpire judgment. Say a dog runs on the field and grabs a base hit and runs all over the field. You place the dogs - I mean runners where you think they would have ended up. So it would be ruled an inside the park home run and all runners score!!! (just kidding on that)

As much as liked seeing Lasorda and Pineilla argue the times has changed. Most people today don't want to see that.

SOMETIMES Lasorda would come out of the dugout just to get some T.v time. to say HELLO to his mother. Tommy would give/or send her a gesture, only they knew.
