Bobby Cox Ejected MLB Record 158th time – September 17, 2010

Bobby Cox gets tossed.

Bobby Cox was ejected for the 158th and last time on September 17, 2010. It was the 152nd game of the season for the longtime Atlanta Braves skipper, who was able to manage his way through remaining ten games of his career without having an umpire inviting to leave.

Cox played two undistinguished seasons for the Yankees in 1968 and 1969, but earned his way into the Hall of Fame on the strength of a 4,508-game managerial career that lasted from 1970 to 2010.

Cox “cruised” past the legendary John McGraw’s heave-ho record when he notched his 132nd toss on August 15,2007. At the time, Cox commented, “It means nothing. It just means I’ve been around for a long time. That’s all.”
