1995 Braves vs Marlins is being shown during rain delay. Dawson went of on Joe West and got thrown out. Cant find anything on web about what set him off.

Joe West and Andre Dawson had a history. Here is Jomboy's breakdown of an incident that happened when Andre was with the Cubs:

Joe West is great but 100% whatever Andre said to him was justified lmao.


Both are baseball legends.

No, he is not. He is a fat-arse that was full of himself and is basically the older Caucasian version of Angel Hernandez.

Joe was full of himself but he was a good umpire generally. Angel just flats out sucked.

Yeah 90% of the time West was an objectively good umpire. It was the 10% when he lost his marbles or wanted to make everything about him that he was atrocious. Angel was born shite

Im the OP. Apparently it was Angel Hernandez and not Joe West in the 95 Braves game. Pendleton spoke out about it.

They were on the same crew. Joe West was Angel's crew chief. Many times when Angel was getting yelled at you would see fat Joe waddle into the screen to break it up.
