Dumb Ass Braves Fan Ejected By Umpire Capping Crappy Night

((ht: cbssports.com))

It's been a pretty crappy week, no, make that month...wait, make that a season for Atlanta Braves fans.

And that frustration may have been encapsulated on Tuesday night. The only highlight for the poor hitting Braves--a fan who was ejected by umpire Tim Welke for screaming obscenities at Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper.

And yes, Welke absolutely did the right thing. There's no room for drunken fans doing that in what's supposed to be a family friendly sports event.

But...that was not the worst thing that happened to the Braves Tuesday night.

The team lost again to the Washington Nationals, allowing them to clinch the NL East on the Braves home turf.

Oh, and for what it's worth, it dropped the Braves record to 75-76 on the season. Not exactly a strong statement from the former champs who may have some housecleaning ahead (we can only hope)
