Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz completely obliterated a dugout phone in Baltimore after striking out in the 7th inning Saturday night against the Orioles. The outburst caused Ortiz to be ejected from the game.
Ortiz was upset on a called strike from earlier in the at-bat and argued with home plate umpire Tim Timmons as he walked to the bench.
Smash phone.
Ejection.
Ortiz tried to run back on the field but was stopped by manager John Farrell and had a heated confrontation with Dustin Pedroia.
