That guy tried to rob State, TBH

That guy was terrible for both sides. Not taking anything away from Bednar or Sims, because Texas wasn’t going to hit either one of them last night. And even with a perfect umpire behind the dish, Miss St would’ve won the game regardless and finished with a gaggle of strikeouts either way.

But the home plate umpire last night could not establish a consistent strike zone for any of the 9 innings. Gave Madden, Bednar and Sims some gracious calls (like the 8th-inning strike 2 above Hodo’s letters) and then robbed Sims of what was clearly strike 3 vs Melendez that was called “low”, which would’ve ended the game.

Just all around bad. CWS deserves better than that guy. That was teetering on irresponsible by that umpire at times
