Love how they always push, shove, and move people out of their way just so they can talk as close to the umpire as they can, they never actually physically assault the umpire, and by the looks on the umps faces, they know it too.
Money and potential job loss that you have spent your whole life, decades, working towards is more important than a moment of anger. It's the shackles that holds them back.
That called 3rd strike on Ortiz was so egregious. He had every right to be fuming and then the shit eating grin from the ump afterwards makes it even worse
Ron Kulpa, the umpire, is the absolute worst. Hes one of those that just ruin the game. Look up what he did in the Rangers vs. Astros a few years ago. You can see him say "I can do what I want" when he keeps looking over at the dugout trying to find arguments with players. Total asshat
I am a Yankees fan but that pitch wasn’t a strike! It was too low! Kulpa always has an inconsistent strike zone and he’s always off no matter where you put him on the field!
Watching all these Short videos on the the conduct of the umpires showing how the calls they make is the reason I stop watching baseball anymore. Until start holding the umpires accountable for there sorry calls. But then again I believe that a lot of the umpires are on the take just my opinion.
@@Gravelgratiousyep, and it definitely shouldn’t be allowed. If these troglodytes can’t even handle “3 Blind Mice” after a bad call, they need to find a new job or grow a pair.
It’s time for a change. Umpires need to be held accountable for bad calls. There needs to be after game reviews, comments by the leave, public fines/suspensions, etc. It might not help immediately but after it starts to hit pocketbooks it might start to change.
@@quietearthMT78 takes away some of the skill in the part of the players. Also this idea that umps have gotten worse isn’t actually true it’s in fact the opposite.
1:20-1:47- That had to be the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen. If anything, the manager should have power to throw an umpire out for something stupid like that.
I'm not much one for baseball, but it's pretty obvious that an automated strike zone is entirely achievable and would eliminate a MASSIVE number of ejections and make winning more about skill at the same time.
@@LemonStir Its already being done in AAA. They just use it to confirm calls, and its working great. Would take a simple tweak of the software to have it call the pitches outright. Keep up.
I think a new rule should be added .If both Teams managers agree they can remove the Hp Ump .These umps have to much power and there wrong most of the time ...Honestly there terrible and cause more violence in a baseball game then the players that are usually correct
An umpire has no right to throw fans out they pay hard earned money to see a good baseball game it’s not a fan’s fault if the umpires are screwing up!!!!!
"Honey, you can't get it up anymore...... we've tried several times!" - "Ah well... I'm gonna go ump a baseball game now, honey! I gotta get authoritah somewhere..."
One day there is going to be a big physical altercation and an umpire is going to be on the receiving end. Then they will go " Oh wait we have a problem."
Full time carers for umpires. Someone needs to change their diaper or give them their bottle when they get a call wrong, they clearly can't take care of themselves
In Finland we have our own version of Baseball (Finnish baseball). It's nice that our umpires are secure and don't have ego issues. They also know that they aren't the stars of the show. If no one remembers their name after the game they've done a good job. Also players are A LOT less aggressive. Last year in men's top league not a single player was tossed out in about 200 games of regular season or during play offs. Yellow card worning, receive two such warnings and you'll get a red card and you're tossed out, was issued 43 times. No one was stupid enough to smack talk too much after receiving a warning. Nobody did anything to warrant a direct red card. In three highest men's and women's league + highest boy's and girl's leagues combined there was only one incident where someone got direct red card. There were few cases with double yellow.
Carapazza is the only other one I can think of who is close on the "arrogance" meter.....but holy crap, is Ron Kulpa ever an arrogant you-know-what....I am pretty sure that there are many players around the league who would like to knock that grin off his face
With this many players tossed; the team managers could probably agree together to toss the umpire and void all of the tosses. If both managers agree to it, the league will have a hard time exacting a penalty. Assuming one of the teams is a home team, it is legally possible to order the umpire off the field by ordinary law.
Then don't go to a game of any sport ever. You must be on some fucking serious drugs if you think it's only baseball. Baseball's not the problem. People like you are.
Some people don't keep track of umps through each season and it shows. Umps have a collective 94% accuracy rating on calls for the 2024 season up to this point. Umpire score cards are posted every game as well to the public. Umpires are graded every game on how they control, call, and preserve the game through the whole nine innings. The better teh score card is at the end of the season determines which umps go to the post season.
@h445 94% is actually up from previous season. 94% is above average for most seasons. On a good season the average is around 95-96%. 97% is idea but not likely. Calling balls and strikes and calling close plays is a lot harder than people think. I know cause I've umpires games before. Not at the MLB level, but at the high-school level. It's always the people screaming that the umpires are always bad that actually have no idea how it actually works
We're in often. At some point even Montoyo freaks out. Whereby that is complaining in comparison. It didn't work out for us, that's why. New York game is legendary. Aka why some should wear a tape on their mouth (PiiiWiiii)
I've said this before and keep saying it. It goes for both Baseball and football. Players got tossed for either kicking dirty or saying something to a offical or Umpire or bumping or touching a official or Umpire but if an official or Umpire touches a player they don't get in trouble at all for it. That isn't fare to the players. I say they need to change that rule
Imagine messing up on live TV in front of thousands of people... And continuing to mess up to cover the mess up... Those UMPs should receive zero money and get suspended.
Sometimes we don't give the umpires enough credit. I remember that A's/Blue Jays game and if I recall correctly, the home plate umpire was calling a good game and obviously just grew tired of hearing about it from the Blue Jays' side. If your manager just got ejected for arguing balls and strikes, then you can't bitch about the next pitch when it's clearly off the plate. I would have throw Strowman and Martin out, too.
There is a remedy for that just get the players to walk off the field and cause a lot of forfeit games as baseball loses money that will cut that shit out or forfeit the season
Some of the some of these umpires should not be umpires. Some of these umpires they should investigated. The umpire who should really be investigated is the one that's been throw out some of the fans. If an umpire throws out a fan because he/she yells out that he sucks then he should not be an umpire. If an umpires throws out a player then it should be reviewed by the other three base umpires.

Ron Kulpa. F him. Let Papi free so he can get him.
I remember that night, I was just as pissed as papi was. Ron kulpa was completely off that night
Ron Kulpa is literally the 2nd and 3rd worst umpire in the league!
I am a Yankees fan but that pitch wasn’t a strike! It was too low! Kulpa always has an inconsistent strike zone and he’s always off no matter where you put him on the field!
Even as a yankee fan... that's clearly not a strike to Ortiz
Ron kupla is literally joe west and angel Hernandez combined
I’m a yankee fan too, and that pitch call was horrible🤣🤣
I'm a Red Sox fan and I say that the corner was painted. Right call.
Was Tod Tischner in the DR the night Papi was shot? Asking for a friend
I appreciate you saying that lol
Umpires have got to consider to a point at least a player might just be mad at himself. But they take it real personal!
Watching all these Short videos on the the conduct of the umpires showing how the calls they make is the reason I stop watching baseball anymore. Until start holding the umpires accountable for there sorry calls. But then again I believe that a lot of the umpires are on the take just my opinion.
Player: "You tossed me? Why??
Ump: "Because I made a shitty call!"
Sounds about right
Ejecting fans?
Power trip.
Don't care, that was hilarious. I would've loved to have been part of the game action and gotten ejected too.
Even Organ players have been ejected for malicious or poorly timed playing.
@@Gravelgratiousnah. Organ players and Fans are ejected because they huwt poor wittle umps feelwings. 😢

4:23 , gotta admit it would have taken all my God given power to not have put hands on that ump with that smug smirk on his face
I would have. Might send a message.
But...
There goes my baseball career.

When umpires get like this, the teams should just pack up and leave.
that Toronto ejection was uncalled for... the pitcher was frustrated, and the catcher was defending his pitcher

It might not help immediately but after it starts to hit pocketbooks it might start to change.
I am not a BoSox fan, but boy was I on Papi's side that night! That ball was probably 4 inches off of the ground when it was caught by the catcher!
Umpires have a union meaning you can’t just institute new rules and punishments
It's well past time for change. These umps are embarrassing and ruining the game. Computers can call balls and strikes just fine.
@@quietearthMT78 takes away some of the skill in the part of the players. Also this idea that umps have gotten worse isn’t actually true it’s in fact the opposite.
@@icecoldpolitics8890 Sure you can. The team can just leave. Pissed off fans will convince the league to fire shitty umpires.
You get ejected, you get ejected, you get ejected, everybody gets ejected!

And if you don't have 9 players left to keep playing, you forfeit the game.
I love how every ump always throws their arm so violently it looks like it's gonna dislocate lmao
My favorites are always “you’re ejected!” “No! You’re ejected!”
Other sports: eject player for flagrant and unnecessary rules violations
Baseball: “you disagreed with me”
Bob Davidson loved making the game about himself

At the very least if the two managers can agree that an ump needs to be removed he should booted
a. greed.
The restraint these players must of had to not hit em with a bat
@3:42 is a strike. It only matters where the ball crosses the plate, not where it is caught.
I'm not much one for baseball, but it's pretty obvious that an automated strike zone is entirely achievable and would eliminate a MASSIVE number of ejections and make winning more about skill at the same time.

Baseball: 10% sport, 90% reality tv show
Man, ejections galore. Umpires are Prima Donnas in this.
Just like a judge. They have a bit too big a head on their shoulders.
Baseball culture is pretty much spoiled divas, especially compared to actual sports
Still to this day...the umpire I hate the most is Joe West and even commentators started getting angry with him
YOU get an ejection and YOU get an ejection and YOU get an ejection!
holy shit, probably the only time i´ve ever seen a battery being ejected.
But the umps work hard on their image. It's now called "Building an UMPire" Maybe they count who tosses the most and who looks coolest
These umpires gotta have snickers in their pockets for when they get angry
I have been kick out of a basketball game for unsportsmanlike action
Forgot the one where they ejected a lot of tigers players against the angels
They're defending angel hernandez
That ejection in Toronto is uncalled for.
MLB umpires seem to have a god complex…they can just eject everyone without accountability?

Full time carers for umpires. Someone needs to change their diaper or give them their bottle when they get a call wrong, they clearly can't take care of themselves
Only content creators will miss umpires.
This all makes me wonder: what if a batter, disgusted by a bad pitch call, walked out without completing his at-bat.
Then they pitch to the catcher until he has three strikes.

Bob davidson a delicate little flower
Honestly I’m surprised more umps haven’t been punched.
It's because they're well aware of the suspensions, fines, and other disciplinary actions that would surely follow.
And this is where physical violence is fully reasonable. Umpires on this kind of power trips should have their careers ended by injury.
Really picking a random fan to throw out. Come on.
These players wait until someone grabs or gets in front of them. If they wanted to get an umpire, they could.
