The exception to this is a rout of a contest where one of your top players got ejected early due to a questionable call.


If Aaron Judge gets tossed early in the game, the Yankees’ offense will be seriously impacted.


What I am thinking of like this is Roger Clemens getting tossed early in the final game of the ALCS in 1990, but he brought that one on by cursing out the umpire under his breath. Turns out they could read his lips.

In the early 1900s the Giants had a deaf-mute pitcher who got mad at the umpire. He walked up to him and slowly mouthed his words so the ump could read his lips. He got ejected.
