Montreal Expos vs Atlanta Braves (7-4-2000) "Bobby Cox Provides His Own 4th Of July FIREWORKS!!!"

cousins they were pointing down like this might have been about that catcher's box again it seemed like it all started though in the exchange with Greg Maddux and Darrell Cozens I think Maddux thought he had him he had Bergeron rung up on the the 1 2 fastball inside [Applause] [Music] [Applause] he's he's indicating with his foot that this is the catcher's box again I'll tell you what I think this is from our understanding there has been a directive set to the major league umpires that the first notice that an umpire is to give to a ballclub when a catcher may be straddling the line in that catcher's box is to warn that the team not to call a balk initially but to warn the opposing catcher and the war in the opposing manager I think that just happened and I think that's why Bobby is so upset second time in a week that he's gotten upset about this think that is a wiser thing for baseball to do if you are going to enforce it it is a wiser thing to issue the warning Bobby is getting more and more and more heated he just took a swipe at Darrell Cozens somebody better get Bobby came out to save his pitcher somebody better come say Bobby no that Corral is coming out to try to keep Bobby Cox from getting into further trouble and he may be in some trouble after taking a swipe at plate umpire Derryl cousins cousins walking over toward the Montreal got Jeff Nelson the third-base up is now [Applause] [Music] cousins [Applause] he's not gonna leave but I think this was about the catcher's box again I think Fernando Luna lined up in a very very either on or off the line of that catcher's box and was warned as I believe the umpires have now been directed to do instead of having a catcher's bob call which happened a week and a half ago here see I think that that is such a such a wiser thing to do rather than making it take a look see where he's lined up rather than to make it a confrontational issue for go ahead and issue the warning if you're going to enforce him let's see if Darrell Cozens he is telling him is telling him to stay in the box he is telling him to stay in the box that's what Bobby Cox noticed and that's what brought Bobby Cox out and the ensuing argument is what got Bobby Cox ejected
