Willson Contreras of the Cardinals pulled a six-game suspension from MLB after his actions toward an umpire after an ejection Monday night:

Contreras was ejected during the bottom of the seventh inning of the Cardinals’ 7-6 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday night after he was called out on strikes. Contreras felt that an 0-2 pitch from Pirates pitcher Yohan Ramirez missed low, and he began jawing at home plate umpire Derek Thomas as he made his way to the dugout.

After he was ejected, Contreras needed to be restrained from going after Thomas. Contreras then threw a bat at one of his own coaches as his was being escorted off the field. He also launched a bucket of gum from the dugout onto the field before he finally headed to the clubhouse.

It’s important to remember that one of the things that made the American League popular and in it’s early years was an insistence on clean play, including not intimidating umpires. The success of the AL caused the NL to adopt the same discipline, likely saving that league. Nothing has changed in that regard.
