Gary Coleman got ejected from a minor league baseball game
Posted by: Richie Rich in Minor Leagues
Yesterday, Home Run Derby told you about the impending Minor League Contract of former Child Star Gary Coleman. Coleman signed a one-game deal with the Madison Mallards beofore the game last night.
Surely some hijinks would ensue. And they did.
Too much pine tar on your bat and superballs inside the bat will get you thrown out of the game. Even if your at-bat is a total sham.
Here’s the video of Coleman’s “at-bat”.
Now, that wasn’t totally set up or anything. And Gary Coleman still can’t act – because he sure didn’t sell that. Heck, the lady who played Mrs. Garret was a better actor than that.

Wow. That was bad. He better be careful. It looks like the guy at the 1:00 minute mark could eat him in about 5 seconds.

Gary Coleman is still a tool.

What’s great about this story is Coleman’s appearance was one of many on “B-List Fridays” at Mallards games. I was at a game in June where they were hyping an upcoming appearance by Potsie from Happy Days… gotta love the Northwoods League. Fear the Duck!

How did he miss the opportunity to say “What you talkin’ bout?” to the ump?
Agree with pels1972 that it was all in good fun.

Is he taller than Eddie Gaedel? He could almost get automatic walks but problem is he doesn’t run like Vince Coleman, lol.
If I was the pitcher and he actually got up to bat I’d put one behind his ear, heh heh. Anyway, that kind of stuff is good for the fans.

Don’t be so hard on him. Let’s not forget this is a man who spent the first 10 years of his life living in a train station foot locker.

Who is taller? Gary Coleman, or the bat? He shouldn’t be allowed to play, as he is not even as tall as the strike zone…
