Leo Durocher flips out!



On this date in 1966, Cubs manager Leo Durocher becomes enraged after seeing a caricature of himself on the Houston Astrodome scoreboard. He calls the press box and demands that it be removed. When nothing is done, he rips the phone out of the dugout wall and tosses it onto the infield.

Ok, the caricature was no doubt a bit disrespectful but I do think Leo needed to lighten up a bit.

Hey if you are into the "evolution" thing, it is not all that far off!
