I think baseball needs to fix this as a whole. Some of their ejections are crazy
I agree, but this isn't the worst example you can find. Harper did enough to get ejected, regardless of what everyone wants to admit. If the commish sits the umps down and defines the leeway they need to start giving everyone, that's another story. Baseball is the worst about unwritten rules, and one of the big ones is don't mouth off to the umps, especially involving balls and strikes. Even though most would say that was definitely a ball, that rule was broken, and things escalated. Ump can't get thrown out himself, so what do you do?

Of course it isn't. Umps are people who have bad days just like everyone else. And when those days happen they do something stupid like this and show their asses.
