Inexplicably, his teammates refused to play another game until Cobb was reinstated. Needless to say, Cobb was suspended by baseball. This was enough to send Cobb into the stands ready to kick some severely handicapped ass.Īs onlookers begged him to stop pummeling a man with no hands, Cobb retorted, "I don't care if he has no feet" which proved Cobb had a quick wit to go along with a soul as black as coal.
Lueker then accused Mama Cobb of being *gasp* half-black. However, to the players' credit, they manage to keep their cool.

If you've ever been to a professional sports event, you have heard some drunk moron yelling things so heinous you begin to wonder if you are even the same species. Said man, named Claude Lueker who had lost one hand and three fingers of his other in an industrial accident was giving Cobb a hard time from the stands.
And if you thought that was the worst thing he ever did, you haven't heard his motto: Tough on gambling, tougher on black people. Even when it became obvious that some of the members were innocent of any wrongdoing, Landis refused to reinstate them. Well, the man who is responsible for the lifetime ban of every member of the 1919 Chicago White Sox? Commissioner Landis, of course. Unless you just drank a shot of paint thinner, you'll remember the Charlie Comiskey entry. Oh, he was ornery for sure, but badass, no dice. You would think a man who had Mountain for a middle name would be pretty badass, but you'd be wrong. "My only regret is that I didn't kill those farm workers."įortunately, this story has a happy ending as Urbina is currently serving a 14 year prison sentence, which he clearly deserves. However, Urbina proved to be better at closing baseball games than murdering people, and the men got away. That's right, the big U (as we imagined he would like to be called) decided to bust out some gasoline and started dousing his enemies. While the machete approach proved unfruitful, Urbina was a determined man and he remembered the old adage: If at first you don't succeed (to brutally murder people with a machete) try, try again (by means of attempting to set them on fire). So what was Urbina to do? Why, grab a machete and start chopping some motherfuckers, that's what. Yes, attempted murder.įor you see, one day Ugueth had a bit of a scuffle with five farm workers on his property, and well things got a little bit heated.

While probably the least well-known person on this list to the casual baseball fan, Urbina was still a solid player, racking up 234 career saves, winning a World Series in 2003, then retiring to his native Venezuela where he sat on a rocking chair on his patio, drinking sweet tea, and committing attempted murder. I love you gals out there, always have." You stay classy, Keith. Apologized by saying "You know I am only teasing.
Needless to say, Hernandez's comment caused a bit of an uproar, but to be fair he apologized.
