What you see in the picture above is the manager of the Buffalo Bisons, Marty Brown, staging a “sit-in” during Sunday’s Tide game at Harbor Park. Marty argued about a Tides baserunner, Trayvon Robinson, making contact with the second baseman on a groundball. Robinson was ruled safe and advanced to third on the play, Marty argued with the Umpires and was tossed out of the game. After not getting his way, Marty decided to sit on the field for a few minutes before leaving. I’m sure he’ll be fined and suspended for these action.
I’ve been to a lot of baseball games and seen managers get tossed but never seen this reaction before. Here’s more with the video below from WAVY-TV. A classic moment at Harbor Park.
