clearly the batter said something that got him tossed. It wasn't touching the dirt.

It’s almost like these umps want to be replaced with a robot.

You've been playing your entire life. You're up 14 to 3. You should know the zone's gonna get bigger late. If it's close, swing the bat, just like when you were 10.

MLB umps are petulant kids that try to make the game all about their BS authority.

Not the ump. It's a rule, and he broke the rule. You'll notice he didn't argue. He knew what he did.

Need to add challenges like tennis since we have the tech for it.

Deserved it too - too close to take champ

These are professional baseball players and that ball was 6 inches or more off the plate. Not a close pitch at that high of a level. This isn’t 7 year olds afraid to swing the bat. This is a disciplined hitting who gets paid millions of dollars a year to hit balls thrown over the plate and take pitches that aren’t strikes. It was a bad call by the ump
