The new Major League Baseball campaign is just a few days away with spring training coming to an end, but there was still time for a truly bizarre moment before Thursday's season openers.
Philadelphia Phillies catcher JT Realmuto was ejected during Monday's warm-up game against the Toronto Blue Jays in Florida's Dunedin Stadium, angering umpire Randy Rosenberg who ruthlessly dismissed him from the ballpark.
The league has introduced new regulations ahead of the new season in hope of speeding up games, and the ejection followed Rosenberg calling a ball on Phillies pitcher Craig Kimbrel for dawdling for too long on the mound in the fourth inning.
