Did you know that Bobby Cox was the first — and through today the only World Series participant ejected twice from World Series contests?

The Associated Press described the ejection in 1996, with the following: Cox's night ended in the fifth while arguing a play in which Grissom was thrown out at second. Grissom tried to advance from first on a pitch in the dirt, and was cut down by Girardi in a close call.

Other interesting stats: twenty-three ejections have occurred during seventeen different World Series. Two Fall Classics, 1919 and 1935, featured ejections from both teams; three Series, 1934, 1959, 2019, had ejections from the winning team; and the remaining twelve Series had ejections from the losing team.
