Not all, but he deserves some of the blame. Playing Don Kelly and Brandon Inge as much as he did was a joke. He also blew a huge lead in Mid September and lost game 163 to the Twins partly due to refusing to pinch hit and pinch run when he needed to (remember, September callups- larger roster). One of the games prior, he started a Double-A guy instead of a regular pitcher from the rotation. He was also embarrassed in the 2012 World Series.
He was easily out by 5 feet or so, and the other umpire righted the wrong, and then Leyland put on an entertaining act, but the call was thankfully reversed the other ump...how could that umpire making the initial call, be in the league and make such an effed up call??!!!
"He walks past the base a few steps. And you stand there and you go 'uhhhhhhhh no no no OUT!' So what are you doing! You gotta be fucking shitting me!"
I love how dirks stays at first knowing damn well he’s out and Jim isn’t even arguing the ultimate ruling. Just to witness Jim show the Ump up, up close 😂 awesome
IRL Patrick I don't understand what you mean. They couldn't review this, yet they still overturned it to the correct call. But they couldn't do the same thing to Galarraga's perfect game, which was in the same situation?
Proto Man They couldnt review this, but they overturned it because the call was CLEARLY incorrect and the home plate umpire could tell from where he was. This still shouldnt have been overturned tho, umps cant really do that. They couldnt review the Galaragga incident simply because there was no review back then, and no other umpires could overturn it because 1) it wasnt that obvious that he was out to the other umpires. It was a close play and 2) you can't overturn the call.
In so many words, this is what was said and happened: Capuano gave a safe signal when he meant to say out. He went to the home plate ump and said "wow, I royally screwed up. Reverse me please. I'm gonna ask you if he pulled his foot. You say no. The I'll change it to the right call which is out." Umps are human; he messed up. He fixed it. Move on.
You can have him. Pathetic manager, unless you enjoy being embarrassed in the playoffs or blowing a giant lead in September to lose the division and the playoffs.
someguy23475 one of the greatest managers ever. Won a world series and 3 manager of the year awards. And he also managed team USA in the world baseball classic.
Captain Save A Hoe Leyland: If your vision insurance doesn't cover Lasik, I'll help pay for it. You were right there. Did you smoke a doobie before the game?
Ok the 1B umpire blew the call, he asked for help and got it. So what the hell are the announcers talking about and Leyland is arguing what? So the umpire is wrong for asking for help and wrong for not asking for help. Give me a break!
@@deew_knird_reeb_ekomS For some reason, he had no idea of what happened. He may have blinked at the wrong time or his view was blocked It happens to all umpires from time to time. He missed the call and when the Jays manager asked him to get help, he did. The result was that the correct call was made.
Don't make a safe call when you clearly don't know if a runner was safe or out...make NO call and tell the home plate umpire you were taking the play off and need him to do your job.
Jimmy Smokes does not know what he is talking about. That was done right by the umpires and they got it right. That is a total lack of understanding of what umpires should do on a call like that. He was a joke!
To the people saying that they got the call right in the end and that the 1B ump blew the call and asked for help, that is not the point, the point is he shouldn't have had to ask for help in the first place, he was right there, he was clearly out, what did the umpire see to call that safe is just insane. It's not just about getting the call right, having stuff like that happen is just bad for team morale, but you know what gives the team a giant boost in morale, is having your coach get thrown out of the game for being right, you know it, your team knows it, the other team knows it, the crowd knows it, hell even the ump know that he was right. To make it clear again it is NOT about the call being right or wrong, it has nothing to do with that, when the umps fuck up it makes everyone hate them.
And being an ump, when have you ever reversed a call that the manager who got screwed by your mistake, ever went "Well, you're just human. I'll sit in the dugout and just say oh well." The answer is never...…….the manager is going to rip your ass for fucking up...……..and bring his team's morale up as a result.
I have an idea. Umpires should not play homer announcers trashing umpires and maybe announcer in TV press boxes should not ridicule umpires there on field who make mistakes and bring up names of umpires not there (JIM JOYCE) former mistakes. Very unprofessional #IfYouCantSaySomethingNice shut up and let us watch our screens.
Jim Leyland was the worst manager int he game of baseball. Dirks was clearly out and he is arguing only because the call did not go his way. This is why the Tigers never won a world series with him. No class, no leadership and downright stupidity. Jim Leyland should have been expelled from the league for arguing that call. Then, just maybe the Tigers could have won a World Series.
Brian Draper he wasn’t arguing whether he was out or safe. Back at this time, instant replay wasn’t implemented yet so it was unheard of to change a call on the spot like that. Also, how can you call Leyland the “worst manager in baseball,” when he just led the United States to winning the World Baseball Classic? You obviously don’t know much about baseball lol.
Jim Leyland forgot more about baseball than either of you jokesters ever could hope to attain. He argued it because you shouldn't make a definitive call if you have no idea what you're calling.
Man I miss Leyland
We all do!!
Why? Most overrated manager of the past few decades. Horrible when it mattered most.
best manager ever
@@someguy23475 He won a World Series with the Marlins. Can’t pin Detroit’s failures all on Leyland.
Not all, but he deserves some of the blame. Playing Don Kelly and Brandon Inge as much as he did was a joke.

He was also embarrassed in the 2012 World Series.
One of the best coach ejections I have ever seen. Leyland you da man!!!
1:45 I can watch on continuous loop
its fucking amazing
Same
I love when they show the replay that the Blue jays guy loses his shit in the dugout 😂
This is the best jim ejection.
He was easily out by 5 feet or so, and the other umpire righted the wrong, and then Leyland put on an entertaining act, but the call was thankfully reversed the other ump...how could that umpire making the initial call, be in the league and make such an effed up call??!!!
1:43, “let me show you. You walked here cluelessly, uhhh, duhhhh out! , no! You gotta be Shiiting me.”
He’s the best!
I come back and watch this video anytime I need to ease the pain with the current state of the Tigers.
I know right
Playoffs baby
God, I miss that guy!
Who cares about the out, that was worth every second!
I have to watch this clip at least once a year.
I lost it at 1:45! Funniest thing I've seen in an argument
Glad the algorithm brought me here, because HOLY THE VIDEO QUALITY IS IMMACULATE!
1:40-1:47 is fucking hilarious.
"He walks past the base a few steps. And you stand there and you go 'uhhhhhhhh no no no OUT!' So what are you doing! You gotta be fucking shitting me!"
I bet Leyland enjoyed arguing with umpires. Now he probably only gets to argue with his wife.
"that's not my fucking problem. You called him safe" lmao
4:02 Hey, there's Rafael Belliard! This video is great and then I see a blast from the Braves past. I didn't know he had coached for the Tigers.
1:13 - "THAT'S NOT MY FUCKING PROBLEM!! YOU CALLED HIM SAFE!!!"
"Leyland showed him up. That's why they ran him."
"Who needs the fireworks?"
"I DONT GIVE A FLYING FUCK!"
Miss ya skipper!
I love how dirks stays at first knowing damn well he’s out and Jim isn’t even arguing the ultimate ruling. Just to witness Jim show the Ump up, up close 😂 awesome
Check out the Blue Jays in the dugout laughing their ass off when Leyland does his “impression” lmao
Best ejection in history!
Look at 2:19 , in the back Andy Dirks is trying so hard not to laugh
1:45 Leyland mocking him was like "uhhhhhh no no no no. OUT! and wtf" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Baseball is such a special game and Jim Leyland personified it so well. I'm a puck slappin' Canadian by the way !
Best show I've ever seen. Tommy Brookins holding it together. I would have died laughing 😂
Thank you for being to old Leyland and thank you awsmith
So they'll reverse this, but not the last out of Galarraga's near-perfect game?
There was no review back then. The other umpires couldn't tell if he was out or not, therefore it cannot be reviewed...
IRL Patrick There's no review at this point in time either. This was 2011. Review was instituted in 2013-14
Proto Man I said that...
IRL Patrick I don't understand what you mean. They couldn't review this, yet they still overturned it to the correct call. But they couldn't do the same thing to Galarraga's perfect game, which was in the same situation?

Jim Leyland for President 2020
He would’ve been better than Biden and Harris
I would loved to had played for Leyland, the man always had his players back and he won everywhere he managed.
He was lousy in Colorado and decided to resign.
1:30 "I don't give a flying fuck!"
Jim leyland one of the best coaches the tigers ever had
2:51 the guys in the Blue Jays dugout dying 😂😂
THIS IS MY GODDAMN MANAGER.
You can have him. Pathetic manager, unless you enjoy being embarrassed in the playoffs or blowing a giant lead in September to lose the division and the playoffs.
someguy23475 one of the greatest managers ever. Won a world series and 3 manager of the year awards. And he also managed team USA in the world baseball classic.
01:42. One of the best Leyland moments ever!
I met Dirks yesterday at a fundraiser. Great guy!
Andy Dirks sat in with Dan Dickerson on the Tiger's broadcast tonight and mentioned this. Great trip down memory lane! Go Tigers! 🐯⚾
That's John McDonald. He couldn't stop laughing.
RedFenril took me a few replays but found him! I'm laughing even harder now!
This was hilarious
LOL at Cabrera giving the camera the death glare at 4:09, he just looks so fed up with the show Leyland is putting on, haha.
He's making the umpire wear this one. I love it!
Greatest ejection ever.
I love how the skip walks to home plate and lets that ump have it too 👌
I love how none of the other umpires came to the rescue lol. They just let Leyland go lol
Ed Rapuano got the right call and he is really blind and Leyland gives it to him, this is a true baseball ejection treasure!
Remember watching this live, almost tinkled myself I was gut busted..
One of his best tirades
Dirks is trying so hard not to bust up too. Fuckin classic
I love it!
1:45 "Uhhh.... no no no! Out!"
I may not be a Tigers fan (never have and never will) but this ejection is definitely hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
With the instant replay enforced we miss classic moments like this,they've taken the human element out of the game.
I love the fans at 3:22
1:45 is a new dance move, called the Leyland.
Did Angel Hernandez host a clinic for that crew?
One of the best tirades by the Marlboro Man!
Imagine if Jim Leyland and Bobby Cox ever got into an argument
That would be epic!
I was at this game!
Jay Wop lucky lol
Tigers went to shit when Jim retired!!
Haha what a funny old man. He's a beast
can you imagine Jim being your dad and he finds out you didn't make your bed in the morning.....lol
2:51 The two blue jays on the top step of the dugout
I wish we could hear everything he was saying
Captain Save A Hoe Leyland: If your vision insurance doesn't cover Lasik, I'll help pay for it. You were right there. Did you smoke a doobie before the game?
You could definitely tell there were a few "I don't give a F***, I dont give a flying F***" lol
Dirks trying SO hard not to laugh
At some point, Rapuano should have just walked away.
Lol you’d think Jim would want them to get the call right
2:19 He's knows I missed the call. Everyone in the fuckin stadium and the world knows I missed it!
For the life of me I don't understand why they couldn't do this when Jim Joyce blew the perfect game. Exact same situation!
Oh god I can't stop laughing
Old time manager. Baseball needs more guys like Leyland
BEZT LEYAND EJECTION YET. Loved the hand motions of the first base umpire.Shame his isnt managing anymore
If the first base ump wants to ask the plate ump if he pulled his foot, he may. He did the right thing
sheefra it was still hilarious
His mistake was making a definitive safe call in the first place, when he obviously wasn't paying enough attention or wasn't in good enough position.
If Dirks was out why was he standing at fitst during the argument?
GOAT
Ok the 1B umpire blew the call, he asked for help and got it. So what the hell are the announcers talking about and Leyland is arguing what? So the umpire is wrong for asking for help and wrong for not asking for help. Give me a break!
Why is the umpire even asking for help, though? It was an extremely basic call. The umpire was right there. He didn't need to ask for help on that.
@@deew_knird_reeb_ekomS For some reason, he had no idea of what happened. He may have blinked at the wrong time or his view was blocked It happens to all umpires from time to time.

Don't make a safe call when you clearly don't know if a runner was safe or out...make NO call and tell the home plate umpire you were taking the play off and need him to do your job.
Who's here after Leyland is going to the HOF!
Lmao...this stuff is hilarious. Show your stuff jimmy!!
Man back when Detroit had Managers/Coaches who didn't put up with Shit, Leyland and Shwartz
He tanked the call period at least they got it right
Gives him more time to sit in his office and smoke his Marlboros.
Why couldn't they ask for help during that perfect game that the umpire blew? That's why I never understood why they didn't but they did here.
He's out but the fact that they overturn it from 90 or so feet away is what he's arguing about.
Tom Brookens was the complete opposite 😂
I just watched this on jomboy
Smile for the camera, Ed Rapuano. Your black teeth are very attractive.
Jimmy Smokes does not know what he is talking about. That was done right by the umpires and they got it right. That is a total lack of understanding of what umpires should do on a call like that. He was a joke!
Wow.
Is it just me, or does John Farrell look like Jimmy Kimmel?
An old jimmy kimmel

You can see me at 3:23 😃
Oh there you are!
Did I hear someone say bullshit 0:20
He doesn’t take shit from anybody
1:43
LET HIM JIM
Lmao
Lol
Ed Rapuano should have been ejected by his crew and suffered a 10 game suspension just for causing this mess!
set speed 0,25
He didn’t say safe, he signaled time. Sometimes it’s the home plate umps call on a bunt, but not on e that goes that far
No, he signaled safe followed by a motion indicating F3 was off the bag. Safe or out on this play would never be the plate umpire's call.
Untrue...it was clearly a safe call.
no 0.5 lmao hehe
I have an idea.

Leyland was a bad manager, but expelling from the league because of this is absurd.
Ryan it was definitely not unheard of to change a call on the field before replay.
They may not have won the World Series but they at least got there twice under Leyland (2006, 2012)
Jim Leyland forgot more about baseball than either of you jokesters ever could hope to attain. He argued it because you shouldn't make a definitive call if you have no idea what you're calling.
