Don’t tell Houston Astros manager A.J. Hinch that spring training baseball isn’t actually that serious.
The World Series-winning manager has been suspended one game for his comments toward umpire Angel Hernandez.
The MLB announced the news this morning:

Hinch was ejected from a spring training game on Friday night.
The Astros’ manager did not hold back when speaking about Hernandez following his ejection.
“The fact that he wanted to throw me out in a spring training game is pretty ridiculous,” Hinch said. “He’s known for overreaction a little bit.”
Hernandez said Hinch was ejected for arguing balls and strikes.
“No comment. He got ejected for arguing balls and strikes. That’s it,” he said.
