During Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals, Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo was ejected in the second inning for arguing balls and strikes and then all of a sudden catcher Yadier Molina tried to fight him.
It is possible that Lovullo said something about Moline to the home-plate umpire, maybe about pitch framing, but whatever it was Molina got pissed. So, the classiest catcher in baseball went after Lovullo and during the heated incident Molina also shoved the umpire.
While Lovullo backed up with his hands up, Molina just kept going at him, making the benches clear, as Arizona's players came out to protect their manager.
Maybe Lovullo called Molina a "mother fucker" can't really tell from the following video, but that's what Cardinals fans are claiming.
The shoving of the umpire is going to cost Molina some money and should be a suspension. Somehow though, Molina didn't get tossed. Ahh, the Cardinal Way.
