On this date in 1968, John Boozer is ejectd by umpire Ed Vargo at Shea Stadium for throwing spitballs during his warmup pitches.
John's other trick pitch was the "pitching without the ball" pitch. Actually not very effective because with runners on base, the umpires just called a balk.

I think anyone with the last name of Boozer should never be ejected from anything or anyplace...just because
Immunity!
