Hot Mics Picked Up Reds Manager David Bell Absolutely Cursing Out Ump
The Reds lost their second straight game to the Rays on Thursday afternoon and they had to finish the final out of the 8–0 loss without their manager, David Bell, who was ejected after going off on the home plate ump.
Bell wasn’t happy with something during Stuart Fairchild’s at-bat with two outs in the bottom of the ninth and he quickly went out onto the field and very loudly shared his feelings with home plate umpire Erich Bacchus. Thanks to some mics around the field we were able to hear Bell dropping some very loud F-bombs.
Check out his meltdown (warning: there are bad words in this video):
Something about David Bell completely losing his mind at the very end of a blowout then the camera cutting to a very chill Kevin Cash at the very end just got me going. ????pic.twitter.com/PhEPOHRJaT

Yup, he didn’t seem too happy at all.
