WFAN caller confronts Brandon Tierney over ejection from son's Little League game

WFAN caller confronts Brandon Tierney over ejection from son's Little League game

New York Post2 days ago
Brandon Tierney was run from his son's 10U Little League baseball game and apparently did his best Billy Martin impression.
The WFAN radio host, who had just returned from vacation, dove into the details after a caller provided an alleged first-hand account of Tierney, an assistant coach of his son's team, being ejected after arguing with a female umpire.
'When the game ended, there was a play at third base,' Tierney said per Awful Announcing, while admitting that this was not 'a great moment.'

'We have the video. Unfortunately, there is no replay, he was safe, they called him out…my manager walks on the field to protest the call, he was safe. That was the end of the game. Automatically, aggressive ejection.'
A caller had previously called in on July 17 to Boomer Esiason and Gregg Giannotti on the pair's WFAN morning show, saying Tierney 'came out charging' while arguing a play at third base and using language that he should not have used around kids.
The caller added that the team appealed the ejection of Tierney, and the manager was also ejected from the game, leaving the team shorthanded.
'The one thing that did bother me about the way it was reported,' Tierney said, 'it made it seem like I treated a female ump differently. I didn't. She wasn't even the one who threw me out.'
'Ridiculous level of aggression,' Tierney claimed of the umpire. 'So, I got thrown out on a technicality. I'm exonerated. I didn't do anything wrong. In the court of public opinion, honestly, I think I'm guilt free. I think I should be set free. It was not waiting in the parking lot to fight an umpire or in his face like Billy Martin, screaming at him with spit flying out. It was, 'Ah, Blue, you missed that.' That was really it. I know you probably want a funnier, sexier version. I didn't even really do anything wrong.'
The original caller who told the story added that Tierney's son is a 'hell of a ball player' for his team in Fort Lee.

Still Not 100% Charley Hull Admits 'Scary' Collapse at Evian Impacting Play

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Women's Scottish Open has already begun, but Charley Hull is still battling with her health issues. Just two weeks after collapsing twice during the opening round of the Amundi Evian Championship, Hull returned this week to compete at the ISPS HANDA Women's Scottish Open. But the 29-year-old English pro admits she's still not back to full strength, and the lingering effects of that "scary" collapse are still impacting her play. LPGA's Charley Hull details her 'scary' collapse at Evian Last month, Hull was forced to withdraw from the Evian Championship after fainting twice in quick succession at the course. She was 1-under through 12 holes when her body gave out.

(Photo by) More Getty Images "I felt really dizzy (at 12th), and I was in the bunker hitting a fairway shot, and I had to sit down for a minute because my eyesight went and my hearing went, and I don't know if anyone has ever fainted before. But your eyesight goes and then your hearing goes, and then it goes all muffled," the World No. 19 recalled during her pre-tournament press conference on Wednesday at Dundonald Links. "So I sat down, got up, hit my bunker shot, actually nearly made birdie. Walked to the next tee, called the medics, and then before I hit my tee shot, my eyesight went again, my hearing went, and then my knees gave away and I, like, collapsed and fainted." The 29-year-old, known for her never-give-up spirit, tried to continue and even hit her tee shot on the next hole, but collapsed again just 20 yards off the tee box. "My caddie said my eyes rolled to the back of my head and I was out for over a minute," she said, per the transcripts, "The security guard and the medic caught me just before I was about to hit my head on a concrete slab. So I was out for a minute." But every time Hull stood up, she fainted. Later, the LPGA pro was stretchered off the course and placed on an IV drip. Her blood pressure reportedly had dropped to 80/50, and her blood sugar was measured at just 0.4.

(Photo) More Getty Images "I think I just had a really bad virus," Hull shared with reporters on Wednesday. "It was scary, but it was weird. ... When I woke up from fainting, I felt like I'd come out of a really nice deep sleep. Like, I felt really nice. I was like, oh, this feels good." The next second, Hull accepted having another oh, Jesus! moment, this one, in utter shock. "I see birds above me and about 15 people around me and I was like, where the (expletive) am I? Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to swear. Sorry," she was quoted as saying. "But yeah, that's what I see when it happened." Amid the collapse, Hull's agent, Vicky, even asked LPGA Commissioner Craig Kessler if she could finish her round later that day. "Obviously you can't, but I was gutted, I just had no energy since then, really," she shared with reporters during the same conference. Charley Hull gives health update at Women's Scottish Open Now Hull is back in action at the Scottish Open. But she "still (doesn't) feel a 100 percent," and "like, 80 percent" on the way to full recovery, per the transcripts. The two-time LPGA winner further revealed putting a few holes on Tuesday, but told reporters she "was too tired." She's been skipping gym sessions (one of her major hobbies) for at least two more weeks and pacing herself on the course. "Probably won't see me strolling 30 yards ahead of everyone like I usually do," she came clean about her forthcoming game at Dundonald Links before teeing off. "Probably be 30 yards behind everyone, but I'll get it done." Hull teed off Round 1 at 8:36 a.m. ET alongside World No. 1 Nelly Korda and Brit Lottie Woad. The Women's Scottish Open marks her 11th LPGA start of the season, and if she makes the cut, it would make a total of nine successful cuts made.
