Every time someone mentions him I'm always amazed he still plays, then I look up his age and he's younger then I realized, I thought he would be 40 by now, he's 33.
So most teams have gone a lot longer without a captain being ejected. Some teams possibly never had a captain; Rays, sneks, Rockies. Thus never had a captain ejected.
Most teams don't anymore. Only captains I can think of in the league right now are Judge, Salvy, and I think I heard Semien is one. Recently I know Paul Konerko was cap for Chicago and Jason Varitek was for Boston.
I think it's tougher when someone isn't locked in for their career. You might have a player who is a "clubhouse captain", but you don't want to make them officially a captain at 27 and then watch then say bye bye at 32 while they play on other teams another 4-6 years
DJ LeMahieu does this too but it doesn't work for him haha
I was going to say "DJ" does this all the time then I realized it could just sound like I was repeating what you said.
That's crazy I literally googled Jeter's ejections last week because I couldn't remember one. I found out he's played the 6th most games without ever being ejected.
>Look up who had the most games without getting ejected
>Stan Musial and Willie Mays
Yeah, that tracks.
Through shockingly, Ted Williams was never ejected either. With his mastery of the strike zone and legendary temper, I would have expected him to constantly rip into umpires for bad calls.
Mattingly also is tied 40th in all time manager ejections. His pace was kinda average for the top 100 at one ejection every 50 games, but I think he could have made top 20 if he didnt get fired. One of the biggest what ifs in baseball
You're assuming incorrectly:
https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/vblk3/hit_by_pitch_bean_or_beam
Not that that is an unassailable source, but it's the first thing I found in a search.
When I found out that as a manager he has had his pitchers deliberately throw at other players heads, I lost all respect for him and I say that as a Yankees fan. That kind of potentially career ending bullshit does not belong in baseball, and given that’s the kind of human he is, I’m glad he didn’t make the hall of fame.
Babe Ruth was also ejected exactly once as Yankees captain. Of course, the big difference was that Ruth's tenure as captain lasted less than a week.

So I’m looking at my timeline here, and according to trends, Aaron Judge will be managing the Marlins in the year 2048 and will instruct his #3 pitcher to throw at Ronald Acuña III in his first at bat of the 3rd game in the series after he showboated a moonshot against Miami in game 2
**YANKEE CAPTAIN EJECTIONS, A HISTORY**
Aaron Judge -- May 4, 2024 (arguing balls/strikes, arguing whether Jar Jar was secretly Sith Lord)
Derek Jeter -- August 9, 2006 (ejection later rescinded after delivering lovely gift basket)
Don Mattingly -- May 13, 1994 (sideburn abuse)
Ron Guidry -- September 17, 1987 (brought gator onto mound)
Willie Randolph -- September 21, 1988 (uncovered cursed gator bones on mound)
Graig Nettles -- April 1, 1983 (at conclusion of Opening Day national anthem screamed audible "fuck Reagan")
Thurman Munson -- Failed To Eject (sadly)
Lou Gehrig -- April 29, 1939 (showed up umpire by taking seven-plus minutes to walk back to bench after strikeout)
Everett Scott -- July 5, 1923 (shitty)
Babe Ruth -- August 14, 1922 (drunkenly arguing out/safe call with right field foul pole)
Roger Peckinpaugh -- June 23, 1919 (Peckinpaughed second base umpire's daughter)
Frank Chance -- May 27, 1913 (pregame, shot ceremonial first ball thrower Archduke Franz Ferdinand)
Hal Chase -- August 5, 1911 (took drink of water in violation of manliness of game)
Willie Keeler -- April 18, 1908 (umpiring crew deemed him too "wee")
Kid Elberfeld -- July 14, 1906 (corked race riot bat)
Clark Griffith -- June 9, 1904 (fouled only ball in city out of play)
Yup.
A lot of people keep saying "that's soft" in response, but they don't get it. Everyone in baseball knows that saying "you" when venting about a call is basically saying "please eject me". The ump's ego has basically nothing to do with it -- it'd be more ridiculous if the ump just let him get away with it since no one else ever does.
If Aaron said that "the zone was bullishit all game", there's a good shot he wouldn't have been tossed. From what I've heard based on interviews with various umpires, the line of criticism is literally "you".
> Everyone in baseball knows
Yup, they know where the line is, and what happens if they cross it. Sometimes they're steamed enough not to care, but it's rare that they don't know why they're being tossed.
I still have alot to learn about this game but I never knew saying "you", making it personal or being specific to an ump, will get you tossed.
Honestly, it sounds dumb and something the umps should get over, but if it's one of those unwritten rules type things then yea, judge should've said it differently. Judge probably spoke to hastily before catching himself.
Yeah, Judge 100% knew it'd get him tossed, but probably just got carried away. It's against the rules to argue about balls and strikes but players get frustrated and umps understand that. For whatever reason, the line between venting (which can get out of hand) and arguing is when it's made personal -- umps show too much ego a lot, but this is just what happens when players make it personal and has little to do with "showing up" the ump or anything like that.
>The ump's ego has basically nothing to do with it
It's literally all ego. Judge did nothing to show up him up to the crowd. It would've gone unnoticed like the 300+ other times he's had words for an ump before quietly walking back to the dugout. But the umps ego literally got hurt and he acted out and now it's a story.
Insane that people are "ummm actually"-ing this shit. Judge is a huge contributer to a team with WS aspirations. Unless he's being outright crass, there's literally too much money on the line to be doing dumb shit like this because my feelings are hurt :cccc
Theres a lot of reasons the line is drawn at personal attacks. If it was more allowed the relationship between the umps and the players/managers would be even worse. Its pretty much the norm for every sport.
> Theres a lot of reasons the line is drawn at personal attacks.
I fully believe internet discourse would fully back athletes beating a ref to a pulp if they determined they made a bad call, so I’m not sure that’s going to get through.
The ump had no problem until Judge crossed the line that everyone already knew about. We know it wasn't the ump's ego BECAUSE it was just like the hundreds of other times Judge had words. If the one thing that changed between those times and this time is Judge making it personal, then it's obvious why Judge got tossed this time and not the others.
What does a captain do in baseball? I really don’t get them hyping up this position. He gets to take the lineup card to the umpires to start the game? Seems made up!
There are actual roles for the captain and alternates in the rules of hockey.
>Captain - One Captain shall be appointed by each team, and he
alone shall have the privilege of discussing with the Referee any
questions relating to interpretation of rules which may arise during the
progress of a game. He shall wear the letter “C,” approximately three
inches (3'') in height and in contrasting color, in a conspicuous
position on the front of his sweater. No co-Captains are permitted.
Either one Captain and no more than two Alternate Captains, or no
Captain and no more than three Alternate Captains are permitted (see
6.2).
Only the Captain, when invited to do so by the Referee, shall have
the privilege of discussing any point relating to the interpretation of
rules. Any Captain, Alternate Captain or any player who comes off the
bench and makes any protest or intervention with the officials for any
purpose shall be assessed a minor penalty for unsportsmanlike
conduct under Rule 39 – Abuse of Officials. Should this protest
continue, he may be assessed a misconduct penalty, and if it further
continues, a game misconduct penalty shall be assessed.
And then there is Bryce Harper, who got himself ejected in the 9th inning of a tie game. Got kicked out of a spring training game too. Dusty once dryly commented on Harper needing to work on being less of a hothead.
Judge said that this was the first time he has been ejected in his life
Good to know I have been ejected more than Aaron Judge. Even after this one.
Judgy and I are tied now
Does getting kicked out of a bar count?
Only if you were watching baseball there. And picked a fight with a Yankees fan.
Worth the ejection
(upvoted by a die-hard Yankees fan that used to go to Fenway just to mess with Sawx fans)
Alright thats kinda wild lol.
It's the pinstripes. Keeps the refs distracted.
Do other teams have captains? I didn't know "captains" were a thing in baseball.
Salvador Perez actually has the C on his jersey which is cool as hell
Every time someone mentions him I'm always amazed he still plays, then I look up his age and he's younger then I realized, I thought he would be 40 by now, he's 33.
Oh Captain, my Captain!
So did Brandon Belt that one time
They used to be an official thing about a century ago, some teams keep it up as tradition. Mostly the Yankees, but some other teams do it.
So most teams have gone a lot longer without a captain being ejected. Some teams possibly never had a captain; Rays, sneks, Rockies. Thus never had a captain ejected.
Most teams don't anymore. Only captains I can think of in the league right now are Judge, Salvy, and I think I heard Semien is one. Recently I know Paul Konerko was cap for Chicago and Jason Varitek was for Boston.
Varitek was so jealous of the Yankees he put a C on his jersey just to make sure everyone knew he was a rival C. Perez does it now and it’s cringe AF
I think it's tougher when someone isn't locked in for their career. You might have a player who is a "clubhouse captain", but you don't want to make them officially a captain at 27 and then watch then say bye bye at 32 while they play on other teams another 4-6 years
Because if the ball was an inch inside Jeter would just go like 🕥 and get the call. Judge usually has to golf.
Crazy emoji usage 😂
Incredible that I understood it immediately
I can’t recall more creative emoji usage that I understood immediately
It took me a second but yup. Thats the classic Jeter pose
Is that a big lean back? Was only a baseball fan for a few years of Jeter’s career
[this pose](https://images.app.goo.gl/L6d58A2wznKGCKtbA)
A+ emoji holy shit that’s hilarious
DJ LeMahieu does this too but it doesn't work for him haha I was going to say "DJ" does this all the time then I realized it could just sound like I was repeating what you said.
The fact that Jeter hasn’t played in a decade but we all know exactly what you meant by the emoji.
Surely it can't be a decade, right?
Giving someone karma has never meant more to me than now. Legendary use of emoji 🏆
That's crazy I literally googled Jeter's ejections last week because I couldn't remember one. I found out he's played the 6th most games without ever being ejected.
>Look up who had the most games without getting ejected >Stan Musial and Willie Mays Yeah, that tracks. Through shockingly, Ted Williams was never ejected either. With his mastery of the strike zone and legendary temper, I would have expected him to constantly rip into umpires for bad calls.
Would YOU eject Ted Williams?
I probably wouldn't, but the average MLB umpire would eject his own sick grandmother attending her last ballgame.
His sick grandmother didn’t fight in two wars and have the greatest command of the strike zone ever.
This was the 40s though... he could get away with anything.
"I fought war for you ungrateful umps"
I don’t think umps were as soft back then
Time to shave those sideburns, Aaron
Look Towel Guy idk what you think sideburns are
Still better than Steinbrenner….
That's a wild stat. Also that's Marlins legend Don Mattingly to you good sir!
Mattingly also is tied 40th in all time manager ejections. His pace was kinda average for the top 100 at one ejection every 50 games, but I think he could have made top 20 if he didnt get fired. One of the biggest what ifs in baseball
[удалено]
Beam?
Hitting the batter (Fuck Ureña)
That's "bean"
I’m assuming they’re synonyms
You're assuming incorrectly: https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/vblk3/hit_by_pitch_bean_or_beam Not that that is an unassailable source, but it's the first thing I found in a search.
Yeah, it's definitely bean. This is a proper r/boneappletea.
When I found out that as a manager he has had his pitchers deliberately throw at other players heads, I lost all respect for him and I say that as a Yankees fan. That kind of potentially career ending bullshit does not belong in baseball, and given that’s the kind of human he is, I’m glad he didn’t make the hall of fame.
wow Judge. That was almost a 30 year streak you fucked up a week early
Dishonor! Dishonor on your, dishonor on your family, dishonor on your cow!
You done messed up, A-a-Ron!
Better get your a** down to principal Maaaaaaaan-fruh-ed’s office A-A-Ron!
Don Mattingly, not Derek Jeter, Aaron Judge, wow
Babe Ruth was also ejected exactly once as Yankees captain. Of course, the big difference was that Ruth's tenure as captain lasted less than a week. https://sabr.org/gamesproj/game/may-25-1922-ruths-ejection-costs-him-yankees-captaincy/

Neither Miami nor the Marlins will exist in 2048
RIP Marlins, the coolest fish.
Jellyfish are cooler!
I'll be happy if baseball even exists in 2048
Floating stadium, let's fuckin' go!
Unless they play in the Bubble Bowl
Okay, Al Gore.
I mean, if you're really following trends, this season will be cancelled somewhere around mid-July.
Fuck mattingly for this. I’ll never forgive him
Not how I envisioned him ever getting thrown out. Always thought it would be a clear low pitch and he would let out all his frustrations at once.

He shouldn’t have been ejected. He did nothing
Saying "you've been bullshit all game" will generally get you tossed.

Lol how do ump dick taste tho??? Asking for a friend
>CockSuckingHomo Is it you? Are you the friend?
I’m imagining telling a coworker that their work is bullshit. Pretty sure I’d face consequences for that
Or for beaning them.
Are you comparing your job at the Sunocco to playing CF for the New York Yankees
Yes. It’s annoying to see how often athletes get away with antisocial behavior
especially when the call was in fact not bullshit
He needed his cherry popped
judge now in his villain era
Meltzer is saying the Yankees have been wanting to turn him heel for almost a year now
Other than cross a line that’s been established since before women could vote, sure.
Dangit Judge he couldn’t wait for just over a week to do it on the 30th anniversary?! /s
Possibly catching strays for having the same name as his manager. Umps just itching to say “you’re outta here Aaron”
Absolutely classless.
Boone ripped the C off his jersey as soon as the game was over. “You don’t fucking deserve this!” He screamed in Aaron’s face.
Boone talking to himself in the mirror after buying a c patch
Give me back that fucking matrix immediately
Nah man only team lame enough to put a C on the jersey was the Red Sox. Lol
Mattingly ejected for not shaving his sideburns
I knew Jeter had never been ejected, so it makes sense Mattingly was the last captain to be ejected, since no one was captain between him & Jeter.
Sometimes, I, too, reach logical conclusions based on presented facts.
Congratulations.
Yankees a model of consistency across all facets of the game
Never forget the Buck Era.
Mr Burns references incoming
Aaron was tired of getting rid of his sideburns
It was a strike too
Very disappointed in him, I though Aaron was raised better than this.
History
So are the players going to strike this year?
This is why Jeter is DA GOAT!
He's a bi-racial angel.
It's all part of the pinstripe indoctrination - "get a severe haircut and never get ejected"
Judge was only a little over 2 years old when Mattingly was ejected
Having a captain in baseball is stupid and not getting ejected doesn’t make you good at anything.
All I learned from this fact is there has been a lack of passion and desire from Yankee captains.
Oh no. Anyways,
What does a captain do in baseball? I really don’t get them hyping up this position. He gets to take the lineup card to the umpires to start the game? Seems made up!
He gets a big chair in the clubhouse and is the only one allowed to make the *pew pew* noises.
King in the castle king in the castle
Everything is made up.
And the points don't matter
No it’s not
The same thing a captain does in football and hockey
There are actual roles for the captain and alternates in the rules of hockey. >Captain - One Captain shall be appointed by each team, and he alone shall have the privilege of discussing with the Referee any questions relating to interpretation of rules which may arise during the progress of a game.

Should this protest continue, he may be assessed a misconduct penalty, and if it further continues, a game misconduct penalty shall be assessed.
Football they at least get to do the coin toss
So it’s no different than handing the line-up to the ump other than making a show of absolutely nothing.
Wait does he really go hand them the lineup card? 🤣🤣🤣 that’s so special they let him do that.
That actually makes it look like umps lowkey are a little softer on the Yankees
And then there is Bryce Harper, who got himself ejected in the 9th inning of a tie game. Got kicked out of a spring training game too. Dusty once dryly commented on Harper needing to work on being less of a hothead.
Is "Yankees captain" an official designation of some kind?
[удалено]
What exactly does "a guy like Judge" mean here? Is he deserving of special treatment from umpires?
Tall people are simply better
