Angels in the Outfield - Manager Confronts Pitcher During Game
Ranch Wilder: [on the radio]
With another example of his infamous temper, manager George Knox calls time out. He is going to have a word with his pitcher, Frank Gates.
Roger:
I don't think it's going to be a happy word.
Ranch:
And it looks like Knox is going to take Gates out. Gates doesn't look too, pleased about this.
George Knox:
Give me the ball.
Frank Gates:
It ain't my fault, you need a new outfield.
George Knox: [louder]
You're out of here, GIVE ME THE BALL!!!
Frank Gates: [starts to hand it over; throws it aside and starts to hand his glove over; throws it as well]
Do you want the ball? Well, here you go. GO GET IT! Do you want my glove? WELL, GO GET IT. .
Ranch Wilder: [on the radio]
Gates has thrown his ball and glove into the stands!
George Knox: [lunges at Gates; they begin fighting with each other]
Oh, Go on, get out of here, you're finished Gates.
Ranch Wilder: [on the radio]
And now Knox has attacked his own pitcher!
Players:
Uh-oh.
Ranch:
This is outrageous! George Knox is fighting off his own players.
Roger: [sighs]
Surprise, surprise...
