Eric Wedge arguing a very bad call with Umpire CB Bucknor |

From MLB.com and Indians.com by writer Anthony Castrovince:
“With two on and two out, Lee appeared to strike out Mike Lowell on a foul tip into the glove of catcher Kelly Shoppach, but home-plate umpire CB Bucknor ruled that the ball had bounced in the dirt first. Wedge came out to argue the call, albeit briefly.
But Wedge couldn’t sit idly by after what happened next. Lowell hit a bouncer down the third-base line that Mark DeRosa fielded before stepping on the bag for the third out. Third-base umpire Brian Gorman appeared to signal that the ball was fair, but Bucknor overruled him and ruled it foul to keep the at-bat alive.
Wedge told Bucknor his feelings — presumably, in much more colorful terms — and was ejected for the first time this season. “
