    Don't get me wrong, I have no love for Papelbuns - but, wasn't he already ejected and in HIS dugout?
    Isn't this/shouldn't this be a matter taken up by the Phillies?

    Joe West -The biggest skumbag umpire I've ever seen,couldn't resist the opportunity and just felt the need (as is his way) to start trouble and cause a problem for a team and/or player.
    He's a MENACE to baseball players and teams- including the Yankees.

    He resigned once before and for some reason was brought back. He should now be fired.

    Joe West:

    West has been mentioned in several polls of MLB players. In 2006, the spring after he was crew chief in the World Series, a Sports Illustrated survey asked 470 MLB players to identify the best and worst umpires. West was identified as the best MLB umpire by 2 percent of those players, ranking him ninth on that list. With respect to the worst umpire, 6 percent of players in the survey selected West. Only three umpires were named more frequently as worst umpire in the survey.

    In a 2010 poll of 100 players, West ranked as the second-worst umpire in the league. In a 2011 players poll, West was named the best MLB umpire by 5 percent of players polled, placing him fifth. However, he was named the worst umpire in the same poll by 41 percent of players polled.

    Compound this with his lousy nasty habit of baiting and challenging players and managers just to get in their faces and eventually throw them out of games. A real sh!t-head.
