I have two that I've heard that I like.

The first one involved him getting tossed from the first game of a DH for his usual, arguing. Then, as he came out to bring the lineup card to the umps, he had a discussion with them and he was tossed out of the 2nd game too!!!!

The other one is one I've heard, but have never seen confirmation that it actually happened.

Apparently, Earl was growing a garden, and one day, the O's were scheduled to play a DH, and he felt like he needed to tend to his garden.

So he goes out in the first game and gets tossed. Goes back to the locker room, and has the brilliant idea that the sooner he gets tossed from the 2nd game, the quicker he can get back to his garden.

So he devises a plan to get tossed from game 2. Unfortunately, one of his players finds out and tips the umps off that he's going to deliberately get himself tossed, so they deny him that pleasure just to tick him off.

I was at Memorial Stadium at 1980 vs Yankees.He got ejected and coverved up Home plate and then when umpire ejected him then he kicked dirt on him. And the other one was when he did a shame on you sign to both umpires 3rd base and home plate and as he walked in the dugout.
