In that era, a lot of catchers had to stand their ground when a runner came home. The best of catchers, like Johnny Bench, held onto the baseball no matter what. That’s when men were men and girls were girls. You get ejected for doing this now.

Ruined the career of a potentially very good catcher, Ray Fosse.

I was a kid and met Ray as his career was coming to a close. Very nice man.

Yes there’s Pete at the 1970 all star game, bowling over Ray Fosse to score the winning run.

Another time Pete was Pete was when he got ejected for knocking the umpire flying. He truly acted outraged and stunned and had to be held back from further violence. What a violent, sack-of-shiite, over-rated loser!

He tried that same thing with Bruce Bochy during the NLCS in 1980.
