On the Lelands jerseys... sometimes teams wear throwback or tribute jerseys for a game. This one was for the Leland Giants, a Negro Leagues ball club captained by Frank Leland. This team was in Chicago back in the day, hence why the Cubs are paying tribute by wearing the special jerseys. The Leland Giants existed from 1901 - 1910. Separate note: that manager Earl Weaver DID made it into the Hall of Fame.
Thanks for explaining the Leland uniforms. On that same day, the Pittsburgh Pirates, the home team, were wearing uniforms in honor of the Homestead Grays, who didn't play at the same time as the Leland Giants but lasted until the color lines were broken and then some.
Y’all have to do some Jomboy breakdowns. He has a longer fight breakdown compilation. He explains a lot of the historical context and rules. Great stuff, and he’s hysterical.
Even now managers and coaches are very involved with practices and pre game warmups. Every coach I ever had would do infield/ outfield practice. It would be strange to see them in a shirt and tie hitting grounders and fly balls lol.
There was one very famous manager who did not wear a uniform...and that was Connie Mack of Philadelphia. He wore a business suit....can you imagine how hot that must have been during the summer plus when you consider the fact at time there were no night games.(he was a player/owner/coach fir a long time but stopped wearing a uniform after he stopped playing.)
The first clip of throwing begins the batter was the first meeting between the two clubs since the playoffs of the previous season. In that playoff, the batter slid hard into a Mets player, which resulted in a broken leg, and that Met missing the rest of the playoff series.
To make it more dramatic, it was Chase Utley, scourge of the Mets for all the years he played with the Phillies. Then he moves to LA, and just absolutely DESTROYS the Met Shortstop, which resulted in a broken leg. The entire league knew this was coming.
“The situation” was, the dodgers batter had broken the Mets shortstop’s leg on a slide in the playoffs the year before, and the MLB never suspended him so it was well known the Mets would try to retaliate at some point in this game
P.S. Earl Weaver was probably one of the most passionate managers in all of MLB. He was notorious for arguing with umps and getting thrown out of games. If I remember correctly, he is the only manager in league history to get thrown out of both games of a double header (he was actually thrown out before the second game started because he came out of the dugout arguing the previous call that got him thrown out in the first game). FWIW, he actually was a great manager who could back up his mouth (winning tons of games and being a playoff contender, even winning some world series, when coaching teams with much smaller budgets than his league rivals).
Earl Weaver was a legend in Baltimore. One game he was so pissed at his team's performance that he was walking up and down the dugout swearing and throwing things and a player named Pat Kelly approached him and said: "Earl, I'd like to see you walk with the Lord.". Earl's replay was: "I'd rather see you walk with the bases loaded."
The best part of earl weavers clip (the old school one) was, if you look at the scoreboard, it's the 3rd batter of the game. Top 1st and it's 7:39pm. Assuming a 7:30 start time this game has been going on for 9 minutes
With the ejection for the throw behind...idk what this exact situation was but usually someone was previously intentionally hit and they're trying to stop reprisals.
The "situation" in question for the Mets game was the batter Chase Utley had made a dirty slide at one of the Mets fielders, so the teams had beef. The pitcher was absolutely trying to hit him or at least scare him. As for the cubs wearing "lelands" on their shirt, they wore those to honor the Chicago Negro League team from way back in the day.
Of course there are instances where a pitcher accidentlt threw behind a batter, it happens and no big deal. But in the case (and similar instances ) there had been an incident and throwing behind a batter (shortly thereafter) is considered threatening retribution and the umpire will automatically eject a player.
American Football also had a tradition of "player coaches" who would wear the uniform but that died out by the 30s. Baseball team used to be "coached" by old timer players who would play occasionally so they would wear the uniform. There were eras in baseball history where managers would wear suits but it never stuck .
That 2:39 one is very notorious and MLB doesn't like that clips of it exist because it highlights a controversial non-suspension. The batter (Chase Utley) injured a Mets player the previous season, ending his career (a young up and coming rookie who probably would have been a franchise player), so the ball thrown behind him was a very intentional message and the umps threw him out without warning to try to stop a powder keg from exploding. The coach was expressing his frustration that MLB didn't do anything to the offending player, so it was left to the Mets to exact their own revenge (which is why the manager was so heated and felt they were owed a "shot", i.e., a retaliatory bean ball).
Chase Utley (the batter who got thrown at) had broken the mets’ 2nd basemen’s leg the year prior. So this was the next time the Dodgers and Mets played and threw at Utley in retaliation. Utley previously played for the Phillies who are the Mets biggest rival so there’s always been bad blood between Utley and the Mets. If you ask Utley today he’ll say he hates the Mets
Hi Blokes... the manager wearing a uniform is baseball tradition. Back in the early days of baseball, the manager was also a player on many teams. Over the years, despite managers transitioning to a non-player status (the rules still allow a manager to be a player by the way, it is just not done anymore) the tradition continues and is even in the rules that the manager has to be in uniform like the players.
Coaches are in uniforms because back in the day the coaches actually played for their team too. And when that stopped, it was kind of tradition, so they just kept it like that.
I believe the reason baseball managers wear the same uniform as the players is that historically the manager usually was ALSO one of the players, until the leagues got much more organized. But you even saw that occur up into the 1970’s with Pete Rose and the Cincinnati Reds.
Something that makes Earl Weaver's performance hilarious, and a really good example of leadership and pantomime as you guys pointed out, is that the overwhelming majority of people in the stands (and probably a good deal of the team as well) can't hear what's being said and Weaver knows it. The ump knows it too. They both have a role to play here and they both do a good job of it. Weaver hams it up and they both stalk around like angry kids; it's great! You can hear the crowd get excited whenever Weaver drifts away and then quickly turns back. I bet it has the same sort of energy in the seats as Coliseum spectacles did.
A dolphin is a cetacean, which includes whales, dolphins, and porpoises. There are two types of whales; baleen and toothed. Baleen whales are the "filter feeder" type, like blue whales and humpbacks. Toothed whales include sperm whales, killer whales, and bottlenose dolphins. Killers whales, aka orca's, are actually the largest dolphins.
Practically every team has special jerseys/uniforms for certain things... Some are city connect which feature things/colors that tie into their city, some are throw back jerseys, some are just for special days (pink ones for mother's Day and October breast cancer, camo ones for armed forces, etc...) so sometimes they have some that look different than their normal uniforms (plus every team has home jerseys and away jerseys)
Earl was the best. That little shit always gave a great show. He was at home (Baltimore, wearing white) every time he would turn and come back to yell at the ump the crowd would cheer him on....the folks loved and he eat up. And the reverse happens when a visiting player (grey or non-white uniform) argues with the ump the crowd cheers for the ump.
Managers wearing uniforms are a long tradition in baseball, it started because some players were also managers back in the day. Nowadays I think it's even required and part of the dress code that the manager must at least wear his jersey with his number and name on it. You can wear a jacket, but the jersey must be under it. They have unique numbers just as the players too. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, baseball was the first sport to start using numbers on their jerseys to identify players way back in ancient times. 1st and 3rd base coaches also wear it, in fact everyone that's part of the coaching team does.
that older video of the short guy talking all that smack....its so funny that they were in the 1st inning of the game. 1st inning with 1 out and batter on had 1 ball and 1 strike. the original video goes on for much longer than that haha
I know I'm months late, but on that throwback clip where the coach said he was going to be in the hall of fame, apparently he was. But also the ref didn't reply "What getting the groceries" it was actually "What? For fucking up the World Series?"
There’s a lot of pent up emotions in baseball in part because the action is stop and go, but the players have to stay ready and on edge. They have to stay keen, but they only get to release that pent-up aggression and energy intermittently. If they don’t keep their emotion up, they’re not gonna play as well when the play comes at them. But then they don’t have the ability to run off or play off that pent-up emotion at regular intervals.
Baseball coaches/managers wearing team uniforms is a holdover tradition from when they were often members of the active team roster. This happened as late as the 1980s when Pete Rose was both a player and manager.
Baseball managers wear team uniforms because the manager position of today used to be held by the team captain, who both managed from the dugout and played on the field. The manager was once a player for the team, and was designated as “captain” because of his management duties.
The funniest part of all of these is that, more than likely, those coaches went out to dinner with the umpires they were arguing with, later that night.
Watching this again almost a year later... I wonder if anyone noticed the scoreboard on the clip of Earl Weaver telling the umpire he was there just to fuck the Orioles... It was the top of the first inning, SECOND batter of the game!! 🤣🤣🤣
It's funny how everything has reached a natural end until they get thrown out which escalates it to them going back on the field to get their "money's worth"
Earl Weaver was in the middle of yelling at an umpire and told one of the coaches to give him his Baseball Rule Book. Earl then tore up the rule book in front of the umpire. The poor coach had been making meticulous notes in his rule book for years and Earl destroyed it!
Baseball managers didn't always wear the teams uniform.. Connie Mack managed the A's for over 50 years in a business suit. The reason baseball managers wear the uniform is because it used to a common thing for a player to also be the team's manager.. Pete Rose was the last one to do both jobs at once.
The team wearing the "Lelands" name is for the old negro leagues baseball team---The Leland Giants. They were from Chicago and played in the early 1900s. Frank Leland was the owner of the team. ...The team in the video was wearing those uniforms as a tribute to baseball history.
The one with the Mets where the ump says "our ass is in the jackpot" has backstory... about 8 months earlier during the playoffs, the guy at bat made a dirty slide into second base that broke the Mets shortstop's leg.. virtually ending his career.. (You've seen the play too in another video... head and knee collide.. knee broke) This was the first meeting between the teams after that playoff series and EVERYONE who followed baseball knew that the first time that guy came up to bat against the Mets they were going to try to hit him. That's why the manager was screaming "You gotta give us a shot!" Now you know what "the situation" was... it was payback for ending someone's career.. MLB didn't punish the guy at all
You all should check out Bill Martin. He was the coach for the NYYankees 70 n 80s. When Lou Pinielle and Joe Girardi played for the Yankees. Billy Martin temper was crazy. I started watching baseball on Sundays with my dad because of a fight Billy had with Reggie Jackson. My dad n cousin played Cricket. My most watch games Boston, Tampa, Baltimore, Atlanta, Chicago.I was in HS when I started watch BB. Please check out Billy Martin oh and announcer Phil Rizzuto. He’s an ole timer “Holy Cow!”
On occasion base ball has player managers. Pete Rose in his later years both coached and played in the lineup. It was common in hte early days of the sport. That's where the tradition comes from.
The Ny Mets manager is talking about Chase Utley would run into the player and hurt the player. So the opposite team pitcher usually warns him with a nasty close throw that could hit him.
The coaches (managers) wear the same uniform because there is a tradition that the manager can actually sub-in and play the game just like the players. Pete Rose used to manage and play.
I Googled the manager of the Orioles #4, looks like it was Earl Weaver. I guess the jokes on the Umpire. - "He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1996." -Wikipedia
Dolphins are a type of whale, they are in the whale family. The term whale can oftentimes be synonymous with Cetacean, therefore all mereswine (i.e. dolphins and porpoises) are also technically whales. It's like saying cheetahs and lions are "cats", or coyotes and wolves are "dogs".
In regards to coaching staff wearing uniforms, I remember the Dodgers sending their first base coach Manny Mota in to pinch hit. That's the only modern case of coaches actually playing I can think of. Can anyone think of another time ?
About Hockey fights, many are about protection, etc., but a lot of them are retaliation for players flopping to get calls from the refs. Imagine in English Football, you roll around on the ground to get an opponent a card -- fine. Really soon, one of his teammates is going to punch you in the face. It tends to bring that behavior down to a minimum. :) The point is, in a round about way, the fights end up helping the refs and they don't really mind them. It cuts down on players making them look foolish.
4:10...good point, good learning of the game. What happened there was there was bad blood going into the game - not just it was obvious how far out the pitch was, but everyone expected revenge from something before. So, no, the umpires do not *need* to give warnings if they are sure the pitcher intended to hit the batter. They can eject immediately.
MLB managers are rarely in full player uniform. Maybe for the playoffs. I'm thinking it all depends on how the manager, or coach(es) feel for that game. The uniform combination is up to the teams, though. (Colors of the hat mixed with the jersey, etc)
There's retaliation in baseball for "dirty plays". Teams get warned, but they still sacrifice a pitcher to peg a batter later on. Then they get tossed.
The New York Mets one. The batter for the dodgers chase utley. The Mets and dodgers faced in the playoffs last season. Utley sled into second base injuring a Mets player. So the Mets wanted redemption. There’s a TH-cam video what chase utley did vs the Mets
You blokes need to check Jomboy media baseball breakdowns. He reads the lips of players and coaches during altercations. If you liked this type of video, you’d love Jomboy’s videos.
If it helps explain the clip with the Mets pitcher getting thrown out of the game for pitching on the other side of the player, I'm 99% sure it was probably a form of retaliation after a Mets batter was likely hit by a pitch by the other team earlier in the game. In baseball, when a batter is hit by a pitch, intentionally or accidentally, it is very common for the opposing pitcher to intentionally hit the next batter as retaliation. Which is of course childish and against the rules, but it's part of the unspoken culture of baseball: "You got our guy so we'll get one of yours." Of course umpires also know all about this culture, so whenever a player is hit by a pitch, the umpires will watch the opposing pitcher closely to see if he will try to hit a player with a pitch. This is the "situation" the umpire and Mets manager were talking about, the intent to retaliate, and the umpire is basically saying, the pitcher threw that pitch on purpose, as a warning, and we umpires won't tolerate it. The manager will always come out and argue with the umpire and defend his pitcher and act outraged, but both teams (and probably everyone in the stadium) knew that pitcher was probably going to do something stupid to get ejected. It's all theater for the fans.

That Earl Weaver argument with the ump is the absolute funniest bit from sports I've ever seen
They been arguing for years 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Earl probably had him and his wife over for dinner and drinks after and laughed about the whole thing.
He died jan 19th 2013 and this vid is uploaded jan 19th lol
Weaver was a national treasure. He was the epitome of a manager.

Dolphins are a type of whale, they are in the whale family. The term whale can oftentimes be synonymous with Cetacean, therefore all mereswine (i.e. dolphins and porpoises) are also technically whales. It's like saying cheetahs and lions are "cats", or coyotes and wolves are "dogs".
All animals that breathe air that swim were once land animals.
George Carlin "Baseball vs. Football" he talks about how baseball managers wear the same uniform as the players. It's my favorite George Carlin video
Yup everyone in the team wears the uniform, that includes all coaches and even the bat-boy.
Somehow Barry Bonds had his skull growing during his twenties....
Back in the days there were player/ managers that played and coached at the same time thus the uniforms.
Earl Weaver was famous for his arguments with umps.
In Baseball a manager can't go on the field and cross the white lines, say to talk to his pitcher unless he's in uniform.
We encourage fighting in American sports 😂😂
In regards to coaching staff wearing uniforms, I remember the Dodgers sending their first base coach Manny Mota in to pinch hit. That's the only modern case of coaches actually playing I can think of. Can anyone think of another time ?
Earl Weaver is classic. Weaver was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1996.
I just found out there's a clip of Bill burr breaking down the earl weaver argument that's gold
The pitcher throws BEHIND the batter, when he REALLY wants to hit him... a batter's natural inclination to an inside pitch, is to jump BACK...
you knew the situation terry!
Actually Earl Weaver is in the hall of fame.
About Hockey fights, many are about protection, etc., but a lot of them are retaliation for players flopping to get calls from the refs.
Imagine in English Football, you roll around on the ground to get an opponent a card -- fine. Really soon, one of his teammates is going to punch you in the face. It tends to bring that behavior down to a minimum. :)
The point is, in a round about way, the fights end up helping the refs and they don't really mind them. It cuts down on players making them look foolish.
11:45 behind the rubber?
4:10...good point, good learning of the game. What happened there was there was bad blood going into the game - not just it was obvious how far out the pitch was, but everyone expected revenge from something before. So, no, the umpires do not *need* to give warnings if they are sure the pitcher intended to hit the batter. They can eject immediately.
You should React to the loudest mlb crowds
You guys gotta react to Jomboy (lip reads players to fans), It’s hysterical.
MLB managers are rarely in full player uniform. Maybe for the playoffs. I'm thinking it all depends on how the manager, or coach(es) feel for that game.
The uniform combination is up to the teams, though. (Colors of the hat mixed with the jersey, etc)
Not a coach. He's the manager! Managers wear the uniform. All the coaches do too though. 😂😂😂
And this is the reason umpires are usually pretty big guys. It keeps them from being intimidated by the crazed players and managers.
The river was in Pittsburg.
There's retaliation in baseball for "dirty plays". Teams get warned, but they still sacrifice a pitcher to peg a batter later on. Then they get tossed.
I think it's how every thing is now with video and audio technology. Wether it would be good or I'll. It's here to stay.
2002 World Cup the coach from the Republic of Ireland McCarthy was dressed up as a player
I'm starting to want to watch baseball again.
The New York Mets one. The batter for the dodgers chase utley. The Mets and dodgers faced in the playoffs last season. Utley sled into second base injuring a Mets player. So the Mets wanted redemption. There’s a TH-cam video what chase utley did vs the Mets
Sometimes the manager in baseball can be a player/manager. There have been a number of them over the years.
A lot of this is theatre so the players know the coach has their back.
Btw, arguing balls and strikes is an automatic ejection
There is one between Cleveland and Tampa Bay from 2013 that’s the best. I dunno how it didn’t make this compilation
Highly recommend Jomboy breakdowns awesome channel that really brings a lot of comedic perspective to baseball
You blokes need to check Jomboy media baseball breakdowns. He reads the lips of players and coaches during altercations. If you liked this type of video, you’d love Jomboy’s videos.
You have to check out Bobby Cox from the ATL braves in the 80s and 90s he was the king of fighting with umps
11:02. That's a retro uniform.
If it helps explain the clip with the Mets pitcher getting thrown out of the game for pitching on the other side of the player, I'm 99% sure it was probably a form of retaliation after a Mets batter was likely hit by a pitch by the other team earlier in the game. In baseball, when a batter is hit by a pitch, intentionally or accidentally, it is very common for the opposing pitcher to intentionally hit the next batter as retaliation. Which is of course childish and against the rules, but it's part of the unspoken culture of baseball: "You got our guy so we'll get one of yours." Of course umpires also know all about this culture, so whenever a player is hit by a pitch, the umpires will watch the opposing pitcher closely to see if he will try to hit a player with a pitch. This is the "situation" the umpire and Mets manager were talking about, the intent to retaliate, and the umpire is basically saying, the pitcher threw that pitch on purpose, as a warning, and we umpires won't tolerate it. The manager will always come out and argue with the umpire and defend his pitcher and act outraged, but both teams (and probably everyone in the stadium) knew that pitcher was probably going to do something stupid to get ejected. It's all theater for the fans.
