Minor League Baseball Coach Goes Nuts, Throws Bases & "Grenade" at Umpire - Phillip Wellman

This is one of our favorite sports video so far this year. Baseball managers frequently argue with umpires about calls. And, occasionally, they get a little angry and make a little fuss . . . but this is classic! More from ABC 7 Sports:

Phillip Wellman, the manager of the Mississippi Braves, went on a major tirade after being ejected from Friday night's game.
The Braves are a minor league team, but this was a major league rant.
Wellman threw his hat and one of the bases. He also covered home plate in dirt and crawled around the field. Near the mound, Wellman picked up the rosin bag, pretended to bite the top off of it and threw it as if it were a grenade.
Wellman waved to the crowd before he left the field for the night
