The umpires are on a big power trip and don’t like anybody telling them that they are wrong or not even look at them damn they are very delicate now a days damn.
I've said this for years ! They need to be held publically accountable. Print their stats DAILY in the sports section just like the players ! And it's not just MLB Umpires. My nephew was quite a prospect in HS last season. I coached him for years and attended almost all of his games last season....I'm behind the plate at one of his games. bear in mind I Umpired HS Baseball for extra $$$ in College so I KNOW my shit. Anyway, there's nobody on and my nephew hits one into the RCF gap, he's stretching it into a Triple ( now since there's no play at the plate and only 2 Umpires, it's the Home Plate Ump's responsibility to run up the 3rd base line to get the best angle on the play ) the throw beat my nephew to the bag but it was off line, the 3rd baseman reached and tried to sweep tag him...but missed by a foot and a half ! The Home Plate Ump still FIRMLY PLANTED BEHIND THE PLATE...CALLED HIM OUT ! I didn't curse him, I didn't yell, I didn't question his vision...I simply said "You blew that call blue, the 3rd baseman never got the tag on him !" He "mean mugged me and said "You wanna get thrown out ? " And I answered "You can't throw out a FAN, this is a PUBLIC PARK !" Who the hell do you think you are ? The MAYOR ?" Anyway, he lept "mean muggin" me and I "mean mugged him right back...and it got eerily silent like in the old westerns when the gunfighters had a "showdown" about that time he said " You better sit down if you don't wanna get run !" And I remembered a line from "Tombstone". I mean mugged him and said "You gonna pull that smokewagon boy ? Or are you just gonna stand there and bleed" ? The stands roared with laughter...and that enraged him...and a HS umpire at a PUBLIC park, threw me ( a FAN ) out of the game by threatening to make my nephew's team forfeit if I didn't leave ! What a pussy ! After he threw me out I went off on him. I told him "I used to Umpire and if you can't take what I said you thin - skinned pussy you should find another line of work ! And if your fat , lazy ass had moved from behind the plate and up the line like you're supposed to you wouldn't have missed the call bitch !" And with that, I left.

It's amazing that umpires have the ability to throw anyone out of the game when they are called out on their own inept performance. Instead of coming out and yelling at the ump, the managers should pack up their team and walk away. I bet all it takes is once or twice of leaving all those fans hanging due to the umps' ego before the league actually does something to fix the problem.
@@ferociousfil5747 Digital umpires managed and run by an external third party with no other vested interest than in providing an accurate product. Get rid of the humans and their fragile ego's. The bigger problem is how would major league baseball fix games for their business partners (gambling casino's, houses, bookmakers) without having the major league flawed umpires?
MLB needs to do some investigations into these umpires by following the money trail. If an ump tosses a guy out for nothing, he is changing the potential outcome of a game.
all you have to do is give someone, anyone, just a little authority and watch as their ego's take over. It's not just umpires, it happens in every profession.
As a former umpire myself, I’d have to say these MLB guys need thicker skin than that. Sure, you’re going to catch a certain amount of flak from players and coaches, but these players did nothing egregious enough to warrant getting run from the game. You NEVER walk toward a player or bait them the way some of these umpires did in these clips. Just let them vent a little , don’t even look at them as they walk to the dugout and let it slide
I literally stopped watching baseball because of the umpires. Fans pay good money to see the players.. not the umps. Their egos are pathetic and because of their union, baseball has their hands tied. Angel Hernandez is a perfect example. I literally quit watching
@@chiefskingdom4151Reminder : your god and cult leader trump LOST the last presidential election and is in deep trouble legally and financiallly 😂😂😂😂😂
@@Sean-st5ud Why? Have you not seen how many times umpires have ruined games? What benefit would I get from it? Do you think I would do better? If I did not do better, and joined the long line of times an umpire ruined the game, would you agree with my original statement?
I know I speak for all baseball fans we never want to see our favorite players or the manager of our team thrown out of the game because somebody's feelings got hurt, namely the home plate tyrant, this just should never have happened, makes me not want to watch the game anymore
It’s the rule. You are not allowed to argue balls/strikes, automatic ejection. It’s not a matter of feelings hurt on the part of the umpire, it’s following and enforcing the rule. They want to stay in the game, then they need to remember the easiest rule and walk away, go back to the dugout and get it next time.
I don't want to see anyone get booted no matter who it is. I want everyone to stay in the game as long as possible, barring injury or a pitcher not feeling it or what have you.
If an umpire makes an aggresive move towards a pitcher, that umpire should be removed from the game and replaced with a backup. The umpire doesn't get to start an argument and then eject the player who responds.
Dear MLB umpires. Have you seen an NFL game? While those officials get things wrong. They at least accept criticism. You mlb umpires are the biggest babies
This is one of the many reasons why human umpires are completely useless. We have so many cameras and drones that don’t lie and are impartial, also they don’t get butthurt
Once the umpire takes a step towards the mound like that, sign of aggression and the pitcher can react as though umpire is charging mound. Name me the commissioner and that will be a BYLAW
Some umpires need a reality check and the NBL should be watching some of these umpires and holding them accountable for some of these incorrect actions and calls made by umpires !
32 yr vet. I can count my ejections on both hands and feet. Most ejections happen when an ump knows he made a mistake and he's just tired of hearing about it. Thick skin and diplomacy. I've NEVER called a perfect game, and I've never been afraid to admit when I was wrong or may have had a bad angle. And 4 of my ejections were the same coach from a D2 school, the last one coming at the plate meeting.
Some people are good at their job and some are not good at their profession. It is a shame and it's ugly when umpires inject their egos into the game, when their immature childish behavior can and does influence, wrongly, an outcome of a game. I do not want to see that ! I do not want to see that at all !!!!!
Yep. If both mangers can agree to it, toss them and bring in a backup. Then try defending what they were doing that got both teams to agree they were out of line to an MLB review committee.
U r dumb. Some Homeplate umpires are already doing it. They have earpiece from technology telling them balls and strikes and is still not always accurate
Technology is far from perfect yet, and don’t say “but we have the graphic on screen” cause that box is a load of crap. It does not accurately change with batters stature to reflect where the zone should be nor does it reflect that the zone is 3-dimensional. They have been testing out a system in the minors that allows for challenging a pitch, but not to the point where you could put it in charge. MLB had Atlantic League test out a system and you still had guys being thrown out by the umpire making the call cause the computer was calling strikes right down the middle as balls. But it’s so perfect cause it’s techie right? lol
@@nateward9592 The on-screen graphic from the broadcasters is usually just as bad as the umpires. BUT... if you've set up the stadium with dedicated cameras in the right places and some computers, you can turn that rectangle into a proper 3 dimensional volume and tell exactly where the ball went through it or not.
@@marcparkinson4118It is rarely a good thing when an official gets tagged with a nickname because of their unique interpretation of a rule, and Davidson was known as "Balkin' Bob." Ironically, he resigned as an umpire in 1999 and MLB took him back a few years later. Davidson is one of several umpires who demonstrate how difficult it is to remove an umpire who has reached full-time MLB status. The good news is that he retired in 2016.
1. Don’t argue balls and strikes, automatic ejection. Why baseball is many decades old and players/coaches still don’t get that through their skulls I have zero idea. It’s the simplest thing. 2. He had valid reasons for the two times I know he ejected a fan. The first time was the guy was directly behind home plate and was being extraordinarily loud and obnoxious to the opposing team and to the umpires to the point where both batter and catcher commented multiple times and had had enough, requested Bob have him removed. He obliged. The other situation was the fan was being extremely crass and inappropriate, throwing around very sexually charged comments, there were families in the area and he thought of his grandkids, how no family should be subjected to it. Especially since the fan was many rows away where it takes a lot to be yelling where someone on the field can hear you. Once again, since Umpires are in charge from first pitch to final out, he went and had security remove the guy. Praised both times for his reaction and integrity.
@@nateward9592The problem with being ejected for arguing balls and strikes is that the rule is too strict to be enforceable, and each umpire decides when enough is enough.
This is where the MLB meets the WWE. Let's not forget when the ref was knocked out and Jake the Snake went under the ring and retrieved the snake. MLB has become almost as absurd.
Umpires are out of control, and the ability to throw someone out of a game for any reason the Umpoire wants to has to end. There are real reasons to throw someone out of a game, but hurting the Ump's feelings should not be one of them.
New rules, if the ump walks toward u or runs to u it’s just like a player and fight on. Tired of these umps with their bad calls and sensitive attitudes.
The first one is the definition of baiting. Miller quickly says his peace and walks away. Not only did Davidson walk after him but continued to chirp him, and Miller only turned around to respond to whatever Davidson said. Disgraceful garbage there.
This is why viewership of MLB is down. Too much 'F'ing drama with men. Umpires need to call a straight game. I have always wished we had umpires who were as qualified as the players!
Umpires are missing so many ball and strike calls it affects the outcome of the games. Use the electronic pitch determination and add challenge to dispute calls 3 per game.
It is an epidemic seemingly in all sports. The player, or the coach, does something wrong? The fines and suspensions are swift, and public. The officials do something wrong? Aside from one or two rare cases, crickets. They have made the officials untouchable. So, there is nothing to curtail this behavior.
I don’t watch baseball so this is a serious question but what are the written rules of throwing a player out? In the nba or nfl if a ref ran at a player or stopped to stare them down then throw them out for putting a hand up that ref would be banned. Is it a rule that umps can start the conflict and players have to have certain body language? I’m just legit confused
I've said I before I'll say it again .. umpires need Tobe heald accountable just like the players. Umpires get away with to much shit with 0 consequences. What they gonna do when they los3 their job to a robot.
MLB umps and NHL refs have gotten so bad and out of control. They think the game is all about them. Nobody is watching the game to see the official..The teams need to make a stand and as a group walk off the field/rink. Of course the league office will fine them and they’ll catch a loss but it will send the message..
one bad ejection can cost a team in the game the standings if the batter isn't standing there argueing let him walk away saying what he wants he's not turned face the ump when they get to the dug out if they keep it up thats different
MLB has to look at ejections bein reviewable, this is getting rediculous. When an ump RUSHES THE MOUND SCREAMING like a hit batter, trying to get an ejectable pitcher reaction, the ump has to go.
Do we really even need umpires any more? I mean, it's hard not to think that these guys aren't betting on the games that they're screwing up the calls on, when they get that bent out of shape and use any little thing to toss someone out of the park.
I guarantee that if the whole team left and ended the game early, the umps would cost the stadium money, and most likely, this problem would get fixed.
After over 60 years i finally had to let it go , Overpaid crybabies , inept umpiring , disgraceful fan behavior , It stopped being a display of sportsmanship and certainly not something i want my Children and Grandchildren watching and emulating
ortiz gets a borderline strike called as he steps backwards, not entire out of the box.... before the pitch was even thrown, and its the ump show? lol no.
lol and then ortiz swings at a pitch nearly in the dirt, gets upset... for... some reason that im sure is reasonable (it isnt).. yeah this ones on the ump guys... wtf are you smoking

Went to a seminar for prospective umpires. I can affirm that there isn't any honesty expected by umpires.
Like a lot of people in law enforcement. A little power corrupts absolutely!

Ump charging the mound is a great look.
Better than prancing to the mound like the last clip 😂
The player should respond as they would when another player charges the mound .
The problem with chumpires today is that they "think" THEY are the stars of the game. They can't figure out that they're supposed to be invisible.
That's why soon there will be no more umpires will be done electronically. That's when I think baseball will become good again

Of course the league office will fine them and they’ll catch a loss but it will send the message..
one bad ejection can cost a team in the game the standings if the batter isn't standing there argueing let him walk away saying what he wants he's not turned face the ump when they get to the dug out if they keep it up thats different
MLB has to look at ejections bein reviewable, this is getting rediculous. When an ump RUSHES THE MOUND SCREAMING like a hit batter, trying to get an ejectable pitcher reaction, the ump has to go.
king for a day umpires
Any chance you want to stop using the same 10 clips for every umpire video?
To much authority. They act like they're never wrong. It that true ? Are they 100% correct all the time ?
elimanate home plate refs. grossly unneded
Umps need to be fined suspended for their bad calls and behavior
Umpires, referees and officials are ruining the game.MLB NBA and NFL. Been watching sports for over 40 years and it’s absolutely ridiculous.
Baseball fixed the slow game issue last year, hopefully they will fix their umpire with attitudes issue soon...
any time an ump throws Rendon out of a game he is actually doing the team a favor.
Im surprised more unpures are knocked out for bad calls
1:53 danger close danger close check your fire. Mike Tyson mad.
MLB has gotten so soft
Bad umps give good reason for AI umps
I would love to have a microphone to hear what is said
Funny technology can make umps obsolete and it doesn't get bought off.
Do we really even need umpires any more? I mean, it's hard not to think that these guys aren't betting on the games that they're screwing up the calls on, when they get that bent out of shape and use any little thing to toss someone out of the park.
One day, a batter with a bat is going to beat an umpire to a bloody mess right in front of everyone.
In the case of David Ortiz, if a hitter steps out of the box in the middle of a pitch it’s an automatic strike
We have computers and cameras. We don't need blind umpires ruining sports.
The sooner they can all be replaced with robots, the better.
why do we even still have home plate umps calling pitches? We have the technology to replace them and get the CORRECT CALLS!
One of these days, an ump is going to go after the wrong player and catch a bat in the teeth. Something needs to change before that happens.
I guarantee that if the whole team left and ended the game early, the umps would cost the stadium money, and most likely, this problem would get fixed.
After over 60 years i finally had to let it go , Overpaid crybabies , inept umpiring , disgraceful fan behavior , It stopped being a display of sportsmanship and certainly not something i want my Children and Grandchildren watching and emulating
The first prerequisite in becoming a major league umpire is to be a drama queen.
Papi had that one coming; that's not on the umpire.
Bob Davidson was Angel Hernandez before Angel became infamous.
In the case of David Ortiz, if a hitter steps out of the box in the middle of a pitch it’s an automatic strike by rule.
Seems these umpires want to put on a show, thinking the fans are at the game to see them. PATHETIC EGOS.
ortiz gets a borderline strike called as he steps backwards, not entire out of the box.... before the pitch was even thrown, and its the ump show? lol no.
lol and then ortiz swings at a pitch nearly in the dirt, gets upset... for... some reason that im sure is reasonable (it isnt)..
yeah this ones on the ump guys... wtf are you smoking
oh... you added that same rendon ejection twice, nvm you know what youre doing
