The time an umpire ejected 14 players from 1 team [View all]
In a baseball game, even a single ejection can turn into a big event. They lead to arguments. Faces get red, fingers get pointed and, sometimes, even bases get stolen.
So can you imagine the scene if 10 players were to get tossed? What if an entire dugout got sent off? That's exactly what happened on July 19, 1946, when umpire Red Jones ran 14 members of the White Sox in a game against the Red Sox at Fenway Park.
It started innocuously enough. In the third inning, White Sox starter Joe Haynes threw a pitch at Red Sox star Ted Williams that forced the Splendid Splinter to hit the deck. In response, Jones gave Haynes a warning.
Instead of putting an end to rising tensions between the teams, what ensued was an all-out war between dugout and umpire.
