Bob Melvin had seen enough during the Giants' game against the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday at Comerica Park.
The San Francisco manager was ejected from the game in the bottom of the fifth inning after home plate umpire Tony Randazzo called a low Logan Webb sinker a ball. And after he was booted, Melvin unleashed on Randazzo.

It's clear Melvin was fed up with the umpire's zone by the time Webb was back on the mound, and the manager took up for his players by questioning Randazzo's calls as San Francisco trailed 3-0.
The ejection was the 66th of Melvin's managerial career, and he is No. 2 on the active list behind Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy, who has 87.
