Vitello throws bat at Auburn players

This guy is out of control. Takes the bat after a HR and throws it back at the AU dugout in the middle of the players. Guys got a screw loose and needs to be suspended again

He is on a self-destruction path.

Is there a video of this anywhere? I’d love to see it and send it to my UT coworkers.

I watched the video, seems like much ado about nothing.

True, LOL. He ambles over and lobs the bat under-handed and one-handed. You can see the Aubie players aren't even snippy at HIM. But yeah, he SHOULD have put a nice pink bow on the Aub bat and handed it to them.

He admitted afterwards he and they (Auburn) were intense and trying to win the game - he acknowledged, in my opinion, that he added to the competitiveness and it did incite Auburn. We would never see Corbin do that and that's just one of thousands of differences between our programs and universities.

No worries CA. Who knows: if Vitello hears that he offended your tender sensibilities, he might personally apologize to you. 8-)

What the UT coach did was not really that bad. People don't mention the batter flipped his bat so hard it rolled all the way to the UT dugout. I thought that was bush league!
