Single-A manager Joe Mikulik's blow up yesterday was probably the most hilarious moment of the season, aside from that Royals-Pirates interleague battle royale.  It was like a compilation of all of Lou Piniella's best moments.  Mikulik managed to throw a base, toss several bats from the dugout, kick dirt on home plate and even broke out some original moves, which included belly flopping and water pouring.  For those who haven't seen the video, please watch. For those who have, please watch again.

Mikulik wasn't done, however. After the game he said, "I could get two mannequins at Sears and umpire better than what I saw this whole series... This ain't my first rodeo... I didn't touch anybody. I never bumped anybody... I actually cleaned home plate for them, so they should give me a tip for that."

  Well....he just got his Asheville team some extra press and, I'm sure, some more ticket sales in the Carolina foothills.

  That was hilarious.  I sat there and watched it 3 times.  My dad said he's making an a*s out of himself.  My mom said I wonder what his wife feels like now.  Very funny.
