Let me set the scene on this one for you. The Blue Jays trail the Phillies 4-3 in the ninth inning. Jon Rauch thinks he has Ryan Howard struck out twice, but ends up walking him. The next hitter is Shane Victorino, who singles in Chase Utley, barely avoiding the tag of Jays catcher JP Arencibia. After the play at the plate, Rauch absolutely loses his mind on home plate umpire Alfonso Marquez. Then, Jays manager John Farrell comes out, and goes down with a hell of a fight too. This somehow has managed to trump the Jim Leyland ejection from the other night. Video below, with all credit going to SportsGrid.
Jon Rauch and John Farrell Go BANANAS
