The White Sox had a one-run lead over the San Francisco Giants in the seventh inning, when it was ruled that Tyler Flowers had blocked Gregor Blanco's path to home plate, sending Ventura into a conniption on the field.

Chicago's manager must have riled up the Giants more than his own team with his anger, as San Francisco went on to win 7-1.

Ventura should be commended for the thoroughness of his dirt kicking technique. A lot of managers do it for show, but Ventura really covers that thing up, and that kind of dedication should be applauded.
