They remind me of our men’s basketball team tonight. Bitching at the ump instead of just adjusting to it and playing. Hell Small didn’t even take advantage of the strike zone as he was serving up 87-88 mph fastballs right down Broadway. There is no way in hell he should have been pitching anywhere near the plate with this ump.Quote:

The no-call by the ump in the bottom of the 6th was a gamechanger. Do you get that?Quote:

Is just part of baseball. It?s ok. It?s not a personal attack.Quote:

Yea, Ark got one walk on a borderline pitch but Walsh didn't throw batting practice fastballs to give up 4 straight hits in an inning (minus a sac bunt).Quote:

At some point it's the hitters fault for not adjusting. If an ump is consistently bad, swing the bat.
Hog fans been booing him too.
Same for me. I defended the basketball refs all year against MarketingBully's constant bitching. The only other time I have complained about the umps in baseball is the last time Walsh was calling balls and strikes.Quote:
