Kinsler & Winning Streak Snap

MLB home plate umpire Eric Cooper and Texas Ranger Ian Kinsler exchanged some nasty words after Cooper threw Kinsler out of the game Friday night against the Houston Astros.

Kinsler was tossed in the third inning for throwing equipment after a called third strike. He quickly snapped, turned around and started yelling at Cooper, while being restrained by third base coach Dave Anderson. It was apparent during Kinsler's at-bat that he was not pleased about another pitch he took that was called a strike by Cooper.

The Rangers ending up losing the game to the Astros 7-4, which also ended their 11 game winning streak.
After the game Kinsler was no very happy.
"We lost the game ... amazing, isn't it?" second baseman Ian Kinsler snapped. "We're not going to win them all."
