Say it, don't spray it, Brad Ausmus.
The Detroit Tigers skipper was ejected from Saturday's game against the Chicago White Sox in the first inning after getting into a heated argument with the umpires, who deemed his attempt at a replay challenge was made too late.
In one last moment of rage during his rant, though, Ausmus accidentally spit on one umpire's shoulder, prompting him to immediately wipe it off before calmly retreating.
