Same here , Love him ! I live close to the home town of Johnny Bench . I'ts been a while but used to see him at the coffee shop now and then. Small town Oklahoma 8 ) . Love to see Lou at a coffee shop !
Screw it. I’m a Mets fan who tuned to Cubs games to see him get ejected. He managed with passion, he cared about the team. The MLB I wish? Remove all this play reviews let’s go to 1990s type, fire every mlb manager. Clone Lou Pinella 30 times, clone Terry Collins and make him assistant, get me 30 Earl Weaver and 30 Wally Backman yeah that’s ejection galore. The games are very uneventful now. I mean listen to that crowd. Sound like Derek Lee hit his second grand slam. Nah the ump screwed up and is gonna get it from Lou
God i miss this city... Cubs fans were so ruthless with officiating its great!! :) im proud to be a cubs fan..... after 2 years of losing this will be Dale Svem.... :)
I will never forget that after the game he told reporters that he wanted to get some of the negativity off the players and thats why he went all out like that. After that incident the team responded and they started winning. He is one of a kind.
At the time, I was a Braves fan, but my brother was a Cubs fan. I remember after that incident, the Cubs started playing better baseball. Commentators were saying, "Lou has sparked the team!"
Damn I wish baseball still had 'old-school' managers who would show emotion like Lou was prone to do. I think the game was loads more fun with fiery skippers because they inspired players to give 110% on the field whereas today's managers seem to stick to a code of ethics instead of demonstrating passion for their job. Likewise, many modern-day athletes play to earn a paycheck more than their love for the game.
I'll always remember ol Lou for his slow ass strides out to the mound when he came on the field to relieve a pitcher..... That guy walked like old people fuck.
I imagine this Romans would have ate this up. Listening to the cheers reminds me of the movie Gladiator. Lou is a legend. He is a magnificent artist of entertainment!
What's funny is that I remember watching this game on WGN a couple years ago and the replay showed that the 3rd base umpire clearly made the correct call when the runner was tagged out on a stolen base attempt.
I was at the game in the bleachers. Entire bleachers thru all their trash on the field. One guy gets back from the bathroom late and throws one cup on the field... gets tossed. Lol
Seriously, is there anything in all the world more satisfying than watching Cub fan suffer? That they actually hold out hope year after year is soooooooo precious! I just want to pinch their sad, drunk little cheeks.
Sweet Lou! Last of the old time managers. Sparky Anderson's gone, Earl Weaver's gone, Billy Martin's gone, and Lasorda, Larussa and Piniella are all retired. A long lost breed!
This ejection really sparked the Cubs in 07. I think it was by accident that Lou kicked Mark Wagner's foot, but it really helped the Cubs as a whole regardless how you look at it.
This is really how a coach fights with an umpire? I thought it was just a joke in Naked Gun, but they really do get in eachother's face and kick sand on their shoes! haha!
@Jrharvickfan I was at this game and it was fantastic! If I remember it right, this was the day after Zambrano punched out his catcher. Stay classy Cubbies!
I was with right up until you started bashing the Cubs! And what team is it that you think is so high and mighty anyway? Thanks evolvingmedia for posting this clip! You don't have to like Lou but you've GOT to respect him! He's a helluva manager!
Reds fan here: this man gave us our last world series. I freaking love him

This is classic...very classic Lou Piniella. One of the most volatile managers ever in Major League Baseball.
The best part has to be the crowd cheering for every hat kick.
I love how the entire stadium erupts with cheering each time he kicked the baseball cap
+Brett Barnett
That cap was never the same after that.....
@@pigjubby1 LMAO 🤣😂😆
He was also kicking dirt on Mark Wegner the 3rd bas umpire.
Excellant example of the superb mentorship from the great Billy Martin
This was his 1st ejection as Cubs manager! Priceless! I remember this game like yesterday!
Props to you for having an awesome seat and being at the right game at the right time.
Lou turned the entire season around with that meltdown.
FACT!!!
Facts
I love LOU and love it when he snaps and goes crazy like this it's hilarious!
God i miss this city... Cubs fans were so ruthless with officiating its great!! :) im proud to be a cubs fan..... after 2 years of losing this will be Dale Svem.... :)
I was at this game, the crowd was absolutely insane.
I will never forget that after the game he told reporters that he wanted to get some of the negativity off the players and thats why he went all out like that. After that incident the team responded and they started winning. He is one of a kind.

Can't wait to see Sweet Lou in action next year. Win or Lose, love the Cubs!
hey, i've been loving lou since he was a yankee outfielder........what passion for his team.........go sweet lou!!
barbie
Lou Blew! What a beautiful thing. Go Cubs!!
Gotta love Lou! He learned from Billy Martin quite well!.:-)
We miss him greatly in Seattle
Lmao, I grew up in Seattle and got to watch this regularly. Miss that guy.
Love me some Uncle Lou!!! Great manager!!!
Man, when you see him running out of the dugout, HAHAHA, you know it's on!
In my opinion Lou Piniella was the best cubs manager ever.
The fat clown left the Cubs as a complete failure.
Nope.. Maddon is
@@Dave-qb1iq wrong again, Dusty Baker is
I am a Cardinal fan but I have to admit that Lou was one of the best.
But even as a fan of a rival team i still love lou.
Damn I wish baseball still had 'old-school' managers who would show emotion like Lou was prone to do. I think the game was loads more fun with fiery skippers because they inspired players to give 110% on the field whereas today's managers seem to stick to a code of ethics instead of demonstrating passion for their job.

2:25 a lady yells "That's a bad call ref!"
Thumbs up for Sweet Lou to be inducted to the Hall of Fame!
This happens when you play for Billy Martin
Ya damn straight
I'll always remember ol Lou for his slow ass strides out to the mound when he came on the field to relieve a pitcher..... That guy walked like old people fuck.
Sweet Lou, the Bob Knight of baseball.
Gotta love that Lou. If i am ever in trouble i would want him to be my lawyer in court. I may not win but knowing lou he will surely fight for you.
remembering seeing the classic Pinella moments in Seattle, this was actually quite tame of him. Guess age is catching up to him.
Lou was a great showman, he knew how to get thrown out n then really go after ya. The fans seemed to love it, like they were waiting for it.
And the crowd goes NUTS when he throws the hat. I LOVE IT!
HAHAHAHA, YOU GO LOU, You will be missed in the world of baseball!
Baseball misses Lou.
It's sad to say, but this will probably go down as Lou's best moment as Manager of the Cubs.
I imagine this Romans would have ate this up. Listening to the cheers reminds me of the movie Gladiator. Lou is a legend. He is a magnificent artist of entertainment!
Lou is a gentle soul.
Ya'll gotta admit, that ump has some balls to stand up in the face of Lou.
One of my favorite moments!
MAGISTRAL, único, GRANDE, INIGUALABLE, COMO TE ECHAMOS DE MENOS.
M's fan here.
Lou, we love you and oh god we miss you.
LOU!!!!!! Best Video On RUclips!!!!
What's funny is that I remember watching this game on WGN a couple years ago and the replay showed that the 3rd base umpire clearly made the correct call when the runner was tagged out on a stolen base attempt.
I was at the game in the bleachers. Entire bleachers thru all their trash on the field. One guy gets back from the bathroom late and throws one cup on the field... gets tossed. Lol
That's crazy to watch Lou Piniella's Meltdown at Wrigley Field on RUclips.
... and then the Cubs started winning. I love this game.
How much you wanna bet that when the Grim Reaper comes to get Lou, he kicks dirt all over him?
Gotta love the guy.
Seriously, is there anything in all the world more satisfying than watching Cub fan suffer? That they actually hold out hope year after year is soooooooo precious! I just want to pinch their sad, drunk little cheeks.
That was a great one!!!
I was there, one of those hats are mine! That call WAS bull and the umps deserved it. Lou deserves a medal.
Even though I am a Cardinal fan I love this video.
If Lou is your next door neighbor I’d suggest keeping the noise down and trim that tree that’s hanging over his fence.
Thanks for reminding me that Sweet Lou once managed the Cubs.
I have been a big fan of Lou Piniella's reactions after he gets ejected. Im going to save this to my favorites
100 years and counting.Go Reds!
the most exciting thing in baseball.
Lou! Lou! Lou!
This is great, I'd rather watch this than the game.
I remember this, he was more angry at his Cubs for playing like shit
I had the pleasure of seeing Lou do this when he was manager in Cincinnati. What a great triad that was
The best thing about this tirade is that the Cubs started winning as soon as it was over, and went on to win the division.
This shit is awesome. I go to games all season and I've never caught a fight or a coach flipping out. I'm keeping my fingers crossed this year...
Sweet Lou! Last of the old time managers. Sparky Anderson's gone, Earl Weaver's gone, Billy Martin's gone, and Lasorda, Larussa and Piniella are all retired. A long lost breed!
Oh, yes! Lou was GREAT with Seattle!
Laughing about the fans who followed suit by tossing stuff out in the outfield!
That hat carried plenty of distance!!! WOW!!!
What a classy stadium.
This ejection really sparked the Cubs in 07. I think it was by accident that Lou kicked Mark Wagner's foot, but it really helped the Cubs as a whole regardless how you look at it.
Way to go, Lou!
haha i love all the hats in the outfield
This is really how a coach fights with an umpire? I thought it was just a joke in Naked Gun, but they really do get in eachother's face and kick sand on their shoes! haha!
I wish the Yankees would fire Girardi and bring back Lou, just for a couple of seasons. We need a REAL manager back in the Bronx.
i fuckin love it we need more lous out there in the world lol...fuckin snap show
AHAHAHAHAHA.... Omg... Even though I love the cardinals to death... I have respect for the cubs hiring an outstanding coach
Jakedown1995 I totally agree one of the best ejections ever
LOU LOU LOU!!!!!! U ROCK!!!!
Funny to see the minions cleaning up the field at the end lol
@Jrharvickfan I was at this game and it was fantastic! If I remember it right, this was the day after Zambrano punched out his catcher.
Stay classy Cubbies!
I love Lou.
lou rocks!!! simply rocks!!!
Lou Piniella is probably the best coah the cubs ever had
I just love to see a Cubs hat kicked around!!
LOL!! I couldn't resist..
Lou Piniella is the best manager ever
The other three umpires were like did you just throw Lou Piniella out of Wrigley Field? Do you want to die today?
Haha Lou RULES! God I hope I get a good solid gut like that when I'm older.
I wish I could go back to the beginning of the season, put some money on the Cubbies!!
I love Lou
Bob Knight of baseball.
Legend!!!!
Real classy Cubs fans!
Lou knew how to turn things around
Sometimes I miss Lou.
Sometimes.
That umpire showed amazing restraint. I wouldn't take that from anyone. I would've lost my job.
Lou Piniella and Earl Weaver are two managers whos teams I would never want to make a call against.
I was with right up until you started bashing the Cubs! And what team is it that you think is so high and mighty anyway? Thanks evolvingmedia for posting this clip! You don't have to like Lou but you've GOT to respect him! He's a helluva manager!
Named my dog after LOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU he was great!
The beer belly pushes the Cubs forward with 1 kick of the cap.
Mount Lou has erupted!
Mike Scioscia is the best manager in baseball.
@ajb438 Indeed he was. I watched this game live on TV that day. It was a game of inches literally but he was out for sure.
