I didn’t really say anything to him, and once I got out of the box, he was yelling at me, cussing me out, telling me to get the (expletive) in the box. After I swung and missed at the third one, I cussed myself out. I didn’t look towards him. I said ‘dammit’ going back to the dugout, and he threw me out of the game. "
"It's amazing how umpires can get away with so much stuff and nothing happens to them," Hall said. "It's all about them trying to get something on ESPN punching someone out or getting their spot on ESPN. I have no idea. It's getting ridiculous. It's gotten worse over the last few years, and hopefully, somehow, someway it can be calmed down a little bit because it's a little out of hand."
Judging from the video, which you can see following the link, Hall's account of the AB sounds pretty accurate.
