Footage of Dusty Baker getting heated with Tony LaRussa and the St. Louis Cardinals resurfaces on Twitter: "Bunch of baby motherf****** punks" 

Championship Series - Houston Astros v Boston Red Sox - Game Five
Dusty Baker has managed a lot of teams

Dusty Baker finally won a World Series in 2022. He was hired to take over for A.J. Hinch in the wake of the 2017 Houston Astros' cheating scandal. Baker finally broke through in 2022 when he and the Astros defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in six games.

Some old footage of Baker, from long before he was the manager of the Astros, resurfaced on Twitter. Managers often get angry at umpires or opposing managers, but this was an all-time rant.

Jomboy is famous for lip reading and translating iconic baseball moments on the field. He gave fans a breakdown of what happened and what Baker said to La Russa and his team:

"You motherf*****s know that! Both you and... F*** you! And the same for you motherf*****s, too! Yeah, f*** you, too! Embarassing, oh, it don't matter now! I'm mad now!"

He continued to boil and later said:

"That's right, I'm telling you it doesn't matter. He's a f****** punk, manager's a punk, bunch of loser motherf****** punks! Y'all a bunch of baby motherf****** punks!"

The incident stemmed from a Cubs pitcher hitting the opposing pitcher trying to bunt with two strikes. He responded by hitting the pitcher when he came to bat, which set Baker off and caused the entire argument.

He first became a manager in 1992. He was an assistant coach beginning in 1987, but was promoted to manager of the San Francisco Giants in 1992. He stayed in that role until 2002, when he became a free agent and was hired by the Chicago Cubs.

He would go on to manage the Cincinnati Reds and Washington Nationals before returning to lead the Houston Astros during their scandalous period. He remains with the team now.
