Barry Bonds was ejected for the first time as a coach on Wednesday
During his playing career, it wasn’t at all uncommon to see slugger Barry Bonds arguing with a home plate umpire over calls.
It seems like Barry Bonds, the coach, still gets worked up over a perceived bad call.
Umpire Cory Blaser drew Bonds ire over this pitch:

Was it a little outside? Sure.
Was it enough to complain about? Probably not.
Blaser heard Bonds making comments about the call and tossed him from the game. This marked the first time that Bonds has been ejected during his coaching career.
Miami lost to the San Francisco Giants 1-0.
