Chuck Tanner being ejected by Joe West? In this economy? (@Crawford_MILB special) The 4th time Tanner has been tossed by West came on July 26, 1986 when Andres Thomas failed to step on 2nd on a double play. Both Tanner & Thomas were tossed (32/33). #Braves #MLB
@Crawford_MILB A lot less gassy this time when Davey Johnson got tossed during @dcone36's first MLB start on April 27, 1987). Note the date error on the 1985 ejection. (Spokesman-Review of Spokane, 4/28/87). #Mets #MLB

@Crawford_MILB @dcone36 West with a giant grin on his face as Frank Lucchesi of the #Cubs is absolutely tearing into him on September 20, 1987. Can't imagine the smile made Lucchesi feel much better. (Chicago Tribune, 9/21/87). #MLB
@Crawford_MILB @dcone36 The Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn was only ever tossed twice in his career, but the first came on April 17, 1988 when West tossed him for arguing balls and strikes. Larry Bowa is trying to stop Gwynn from a suspension. (Atlanta Constitution, 4/18/88). #Padres #MLB

Kevin Brown didn't like the strike zone of West in the 4th inning on April 21, 1998. He earned himself and Bruce Bochy a nice shower, and an L in the record books. (84/85; Herald & Review of Decatur IL; 4/22/98). #Padres #MLB
Armando Benitez's famous ejection of 1998 is him beaning Tino Martinez. However, on June 8, 1998, he and Ray Miller were tossed when Miller didn't realize he came to the mound twice in 2 at bats, which is a no-no. (86/87; Evening Sun of Hanover, PA; 6/9/98). #Orioles #MLB
Ray Miller didn't have to wait long for another ejection by West (his 88th), this time when the #Orioles were facing the #Expos. Miller got tossed over this play at 2B. (Baltimore Sun, 6/27/98) #MLB
Calls at 2B were en vogue in 1998 for Joe West. Tony La Russa wasn't pleased that Bret Boone was out, though West stated that Placido Polanco was off the bag. La Russa became the 89th victim on July 5, 1998. (Muscatine Journal; 7/6/98). #Cardinals #MLB
Bobby Valentine clearly remembered his 1978 ejection (maybe not the year though), but made gestures towards West from the dugout anyway, resulting in him being victim #90 on September 9, 1998. (Newsday, 9/10/98). #Mets #MLB
Cause the benches to clear, erase your place on the bench. Joe West had to restrain Julian Tavarez on July 4, 1999, resulting in fireworks and ejection #91. This would be West's last ejection before the resignations. (Daily Press of Victorville CA; 7/5/99) #SFGiants #MLB
35 months later, Joe West was back in MLB, and wasted no time racking up ejection #92. Will Cordero did not like either strike 2 or strike 3 called against him. West didn't like his attitude on June 4, 2002. (Allentown Morning Call, 6/5/02). #Expos #MLB
Tony LaRussa thought Joe West was #1 on July 18, 2002, when West tossed him for arguing a check swing call against Matt Morris. (West had not gotten his #22 back yet). (93; Lansing State Journal, 7/19/02) #Cardinals #MLB
Jerry Hairston was even more pissed at West the next day, getting tossed for being called out at 1st base. Rick Dempsey tried his best to save his young player, but could not. (94; Rochester Democrat & Chronicle; 7/20/02) #Orioles #MLB
Cause you had a bad day, you're taking one down, but not Joe West. Brent Butler struck out 3 times and had enough on the strike 3 of AB #3. West had enough of Butler and sent him to the showers. (95; Arizona Republic, 9/27/02). #Rockies #MLB
Rick Dempsey really needed to pull his players away from Cowboy Joe. David Segui did not like a check swing call on 2-2, resulting in a K against the Devil Rays on April 9, 2003. (96; Rocky Mount Telegram; 4/10/03). #Orioles #MLB
Apparently Zach Day had Jay Howell on the brain on May 17, 2003. Joe West inspected Day, where he found glue on his fingers (because of blisters). West's 97th ejection resulted in Day becoming unglued. (Fort Collins Coloradoan; 5/18/03). #Expos #MLB
Corey Koskie's ejection was considered uninteresting to the press, as only the Bismarck Tribune seemed to mention the June 6, 2003 heave-ho...two days later. (98; Bismarck Tribune, 6/8/03). #Twins #MLB
Juan Castro throwing his helmet resulted in a fine in the 9th inning on June 17, 2003. Bob Boone appeared to not like that decision by Joe West. West gave him a fine too....and another ejection. (99; Herald-Palladium of St. Joseph, MI; 7/18/03). #Reds #MLB
Happy 100th ejection. Jerry Manuel did not like the decision that a fly ball fell into fair territory over foul on July 2, 2003. Note West has his #22 back. (Tampa Bay Times; 7/3/03). #WhiteSox #MLB
Hit me once, shame on me. Hit me twice, shame on you. Joe West tossed Bob Melvin and Rafael Soriano after Soriano hit Carlos Febles for the 2nd time in the game on July 17, 2003. (101-102; Times-Leader of Wilkes Barre, PA, 7/18/03) #Mariners #MLB
You've gotta point. West threw out Paul Lo Duca on August 2, 2003 arguing over his strike zone. Jim Tracy joined him right after. At the end of the game, Jeromy Burnitz got the honor of a post-game ejection. They had fun pointing (103-104-105; Fresno Bee, 8/3/03). #Dodgers #MLB
Joe West offered his 106th espulsione on September 27, 2003, tossing Doug Mirabelli from the dugout. Dave McCarty's HR was ruled an out due to fan interference, giving the game to the Devil Rays (STL Post-Dispatch, 9/28/03). #RedSox #MLB
He threw all the balls. Milton Bradley got tossed by Terry Craft, while Joe West tossed Jim Tracy defending his angry outfielder on June 1, 2004. (107; LA Times, 6/2/04) #Dodgers #MLB
Pulling a Doug Rader will defintiely hurt your cause. Bob Melvin's arguing from an August 6, 2004 obstruction call resulted in a pregame ejection when he continue the argument the next day. (108; News-Tribune of Tacoma, WA; 8/7/04) #Mariners #MLB
Tony, he can't have pine tar in his Anthony Eden. Ejection 109 was the 2nd of Julian Tavarez, who he tossed in 1999 for inciting a benches clearing incident. (Orlando Sentinel; 8/21/04) #Cardinals #MLB
Eric Wedge HULK MODE. Joe West tossed the #Indians manager on April 22, 2006 after Jim Wolf (not West) tossed Jeremy Guthrie for hitting Esteban German on purpose. (110; KC Star, 4/23/06). #MLB #Guardians
I don't like what you stand for, 2006 version. Russ Springer hit Barry Bnds intentionally after being warned by West. West didn't like what Springer stood for, tossing him and Phil Garner on May 17, 2006. (111-112; Moline Dispatch; 5/17/06). #Astros #MLB
Clint-on Hurdle is in the face of West after tossing Brad Hawpe on July 14, 2006 for ejection #113. (Fort Collins Coloradoan, 7/15/06) #Rockies #MLB
Who's smiling now, Tony? Despite being all smiles in the picture, Tony Graffiano's tone changed when he called out West for his strike zone on Juyl 22, 2006. Buddy Bell wasn't smiling at all. Both enjoyed the showers. (114-115; Manhattan Mercury; 7/23/06). #Royals #MLB
Oh, you again? Just like Ray Miller in 1998, Buddy Bell got another quick hook from Joe West for #116 on August 26, 2006. Bell had choice words in return.
Miguel Olivo was olived of duty on September 3, 2006 by Joe West for inciting after the late Geremi Gonzalez hit Dan Uggla intentionally, maybe. (117; Orlando Sentinel, 9/4/06). #Marlins #MLB
Joe West Baseball Sanitation at your service. Brian McCann appeared to have gone to his mouth after a walk to Carlos Delgado on September 28, 2006. McCann was tossed by West, along with Bobby Cox (#125). (118-119; Atlanta Journal Constitution, 9/29/06). #Braves #MLB
DO YOU HEAR ME?! No, I don't. Grady Little getting his money's worth on this ejection, yelling right into Joe's right ear while Russell Martin just watches on April 21, 2007. (120; Ventura County Star; 4/22/07). #Dodgers #MLB
Why are you not Bob Davidson? Charlie Manuel damn well wanted a balk in the 8th inning on May Day 2007, though he picked the wrong umpire if he wanted that result. Instead, Joe West's 121st ejection is all he got. (Philadelphia Inquirer; 5/2/07). #Phillies #MLB
Here comes that rainy day feeling again. Cliff Floyd and Joe West spar over a called third strike in the rain on May 20, 2007. West is all sunshine and Floyd ends up with the clouds. (122; Chicago Tribune, 5/21/07). #Cubs #MLB
From C.B.B. to C.J.W. Marcus Giles was not thrilled with CB Bucknor's strike 3 call against the Pirates. Joe West decided that he wasn't thrilled with Giles berating his crewmate on May 29, 2007. (123; Titusville Herald, 5/30/07) #Padres #MLB
Ed Rapuano tossed Josh Bard after an overturned home run and Bard decided on a George Brett pine tar-style response on May 31, 2007. Bud Black defended his irate catcher and enjoyed the rest of the game in the clubhouse thanks to Joe. (124; Cincinnati Post, 6/1/07). #Padres #MLB
I ask that you toss me good sir. All is not it what may seem, except that Ozzie Guillen asked Joe West to toss him on June 24, 2007. Inspiration ejection led to dejection when the Cubs swept the Sox anyway. (125; Times of Streator, IL; 6/25/07) #WhiteSox #MLB
Ejections come in living colour. Charlie Manuel's colourful language earned him his 2nd ejection by West in 2007, this time over a call at 1st base on August 27. (126; Philadelphia Daily News, 8/28/07). #Phillies #MLB
"Man, what does his breath smell like?" is what I imagine Joe West is thinking here after tossing Dave Trembley on August 31, 2007 for ejection 127. (Baltimore Sun, 9/1/07). #Orioles #MLB
Mike Scioscia's taxes were a little lighter on April 14, 2008, because he had to break up a staring contest between Vladimir Guerrero and Joe West. Tax Man Joe fined him whatever the 128th ejection was worth. (Santa Maria Times, 4/15/08). #Angels #MLB
Fair or foul? Fredi Gonzalez commits a foul on Joe West and the umpire calls fair and ejects him on July 7, 2008. It didn't end up mattering. (129; Miami Herald, 7/9/08). #Marlins #MLB
Get us some lights you old man. Bobby Cox never bothered to leave the dugout when West stopped the game to get the lights turned on before the 5th inning on August 13, 2008. Cox finally did leave. (130; Elmira Star-Gazette; 8/14/08). #Braves #MLB
Jerry Manuel's the victim of ejection #131 on August 18, 2008 when West tosses him for arguing a call at 1B. (Cincinnati Enquirer, 8/19/08). #Mets #MLB
I can't do that Dave. West-9000 tosses Dave Trembley on August 23, 2008 after arguing a dropped third strike. (132; Baltimore Sun, 8/24/08). #Orioles #MLB
Who's at first? Apparently Ed Sedar, because he just got tossed by Joe West on September 16, 2008 after determining that Derrek Lee was not on first base on a play in the infield. (133; Post-Crescent of Appleton WI, 9/17/08). #Brewers #MLB
AND THERE'S A FIGHT! Joe West was talking with Mike Scioscia on April 12, 2009 when a fight broke out between #Angels and the #RedSox. At the end of it, Torii Hunter, Justin Speier and Mickey Hatcher all enjoyed a trip to the clubhouse. (134-135-136; Bangor Daily News, 4/13/09).
What is a swing? Dan Uggla apparently was called for swinging on a HBP from Cory Wade on May 15, 2009. Rapuano tossed Fredi Gonzalez. Uggla continued arguing and was tossed by Joe West. (137; Ventura County Star; 5/16/09). #Marlins #MLB
Who needs a lineup card anyway? Ozzie Guillen tosses his in the 9th on June 23, 2009. This time the meeting between Guillen and West was not so cordial. (138; Northwest Herald of Woodstock IL; 6/24/09). #WhiteSox #MLB
Jim's not even paying attention. In Joe West's 4000th game as an MLB umpire on July 30, 2009, he tossed Jim Riggleman for West's 139th ejection, meaning an ejection in 3% of his career games. (News-Journal of Wilmington DE; 7/31/09) #Nationals #MLB
An unpleasant homecoming for Ron Washington. #Athletics fans cheer as Washington is tossed by Joe West on May 3, 2010. (140; Modesto Bee; 5/4/10). #Rangers #MLB
Ozzie Guillen tells what Joe West can do with his balk calls against Mark Buehrle on May 26, 2010 while Hawk absolutely loses his mind on the television broadcast. Guillen and Buehrle finished the game in the clubhouse (141-142; Northwest Herald; 5/27/10). #WhiteSox #MLB
Toss me damn it, not Ian! Joe West walks away from Pat Listach on June 4, 2010 after tossing Ian Desmond over an overturned call at 3B. (143; MASN, 6/4/10) #Nationals #MLB
Uh. A perplexed Miguel Batista defends his pitches that led to his Joe West ejection the very next day when Brandon Phillips was hit by a pitch. (144; MASN2, 6/5/10). (Neither Desmond or Batista's had newspapers). #Nationals #MLB
Well, no Bobby Cox, but we do get some Gardy on September 2, 2010. Joe West incorrectly rules that Alexi Casilla never had the ball trying to turn the double play when he actually dropped it on transfer. Gardy gets tossed trying to get a reversal. (145; FS North; 9/2/10). #Twins
Tony La Russa was ejection #146, but no video or newspaper is available for this ejection, where Joe tossed him over his strike zone on September 25, 2010. #Cardinals #MLB
Brian, I know you're sick but Julio got himself tossed. Julio Lugo did not like a strikeout call and tossed his equipment. He was fined, then tossed by Joe West on September 28, 2010. (147; Baltimore Sun, 9/29/10). #Orioles #MLB
Edwin Rodriguez's season ending ejection is also unrepresented. Wes Helms hit a HR in the 6th that caromed back into play and was overruled on replay into a double. Edwin Rodriguez objected with the runner locations and argued until ejection on October 3, 2010. #Marlins #MLB
Wild Wild West. A crazy game on April 22, 2011 that finished 14-6 between the #Brewers and #Astros resulted in Brad Arnsberg being tossed by Paul Schreiber while Brad Mills was tossed by Joe West for arguing the first ejection. (149; Stevens Point Journal; 4/23/11). #MLB
Both managers begone. BJ Upton was tossed in the 9th on May 4, 2011, while John Farrell and Joe Maddon went in the 7th over a call at 1B where Sam Fuld was ruled safe and then overturned. Maddon was tossed by West. (150; Philadelphia Inqurier; 5/5/11). #Rays #MLB
I have a bruise? See! Bruise! Ron Gardenhire becomes victim 151 of Joe West's wicked right hook in the 8th (not 9th) on May 9, 2011 when arguing that Danny Valencia was hit by a pitch, not the bat. (St. Cloud Times, 5/10/11) #Twins #MLB
Jim Leyland was tossed from the dugout before the 7th inning. Verlander didn't last more than another inning, having a problem with the fact they asked Verlander to change baseballs during the game on July 5, 2011. (152-153; Franklin Banner Tribune, 7/6/11) #Tigers #MLB
No one like any umpires on August 28, 2011. Dusty Baker was tossed for arguing an out call. Davey Johnson and Pat Corrales were also tossed, but only Johnson was tossed by West, for the first time in 24 years. (154; Cincinnati Enquirer; 8/29/11) #Nationals #MLB
Rules? We don't need no stinkin' rules. First a fan interferes with Bryan Petersen's glove on Sept 4, 2011, then Joe West usesreplay to overturn the HR call into an F9. Charlie Manuel doesn't think West used his rules properly. (155; Philadelphia Inquirer; 9/5/11). #Phillies #MLB
