The San Diego Toreros faced the Santa Clara Broncos on Saturday at Fowler Park in San Diego. The players are required to stand off by the foul line before the game starts as the national anthem plays. They also need exit to the dugout after the anthem. On April 4, as the Anthem ended, players were seen leaving the field in a single-file line.

However, the officials approached a group of San Diego players as they were waiting in line and immediately ejected Jagger Edwards. The clip was shared on X as users erupted over the bizarre decision from the umpire, as no obvious delay or misconduct was visible.

Although there is no such rule in MLB, the NCAA does have a specific one in this matter.

“The umpire-in-chief is to warn the head coach of the offending team(s) that should any player or team personnel not return to the dugout area immediately after the playing of the National Anthem, the head coach and offending person(s) will be ejected immediately.”

The rule intends to avoid delay and maintain sportsmanship. However, the rule doesn’t clearly define the term ‘immediately’ with a specific timeframe. It means there are no real-time movement constraints indicated here, like leaving the field in a single line.

Mixed emotions about that,

Cops hated bodycams but these days it saves their arse more than it hurts them.

Has to be more to this. They ejected a specific player that was in the middle of a group of other players. If it was for intentionally slowing down the exit, it looks like there were 3 or 4 guys in front of the player ejected that the crew did not approach. Or, they would have ejected the 7-8 guys at the end of the line.

A common game among players is trying to be the last to leave the foul line after the anthem. Maybe he was warned the game before or something.

Good call. Because if you guess right, they will get pissy and throw you out quickly
