June 17Jun 17 Don't know anything about that ump but I think he had an inkling that he blew it. Usually those egomaniacs would have tossed a player for what Lowe did even though he was 100% correct, of course.

That is completely embarrassing for a MLB Ump. good thing they don't have something like the strike zone where they time from the point the foot hits the bag and the ball meets the glove

I get it sometimes where it is actually close. From their angle they usually can’t see the last 8” when the ball is going into the glove. Best they can do is try to hear it hit and watch the runners feet. Those I can be sympathetic to a missed call, that’s what review is for. But that one? oh fuck no. He must have had a hot date or something. I mean they are human, and humans make mistakes no matter the level. We all do. It’s human nature. But be open to the possibility that you may be incorrect and have. made a mistake. Don’t double down and puff out your chest, and end up ejecting someone because they hurt your feelers over your call. Sure, sometimes an ejection is warranted, depending on the post-call interaction, but if both sides maintain respect for each other, things might go better. Not to say that things don’t happen in the heat of the moment, but still, talk mad shit to the officials in any sport and see what happens long term. However, with this one, jesus christ on a bicycle. I mean the ball is what. 10-12 feet from the glove at the point his foot hit the bag. Granted still quick in real time, but in context it wasn’t. Foot hits bag, hear the ball hit glove a second or two after. Only thing I can think of is he mixed up the sound of each in his head? He can’t honestly be that bad?
June 19Jun 19 The correct mechanic is to see the ball into the glove and then check the runner. There can be no out if the ball is not in the glove and the fielder touching the base. He made that call before the ball ever hit the glove. Bad umpiring period.

August 11Aug 11 Looks pretty good for any first timer debuting at the highest level. At least no one through a dildo at her.
August 19Aug 19 ^Is that a coincidence those were all strike 3 calls? Was it a choice of the video editors, or is there a psychological reason umps miss badly when they want to ring someone up?

It's just showing shitty third-strike calls that guys got rung up looking. No need to overthink it.

September 28Sep 28 So no matter where the ball is, if the catcher decides to run into the batter first he gets the out?
