MLB Fastest Ways to Get Ejected 

Still a no no

Yep drives me insane that it still can’t be reviewed.

It was probably off the plate, but closer than the line he drew. Still, the way great hitters like that can see the ball so well always amazes me.

@@RP-mi1hvOne day they will use AI/doppler radar to give 100% accurate calls behind the plate.

I wonder if he knew that it's an automatic ejection in MLB to point and draw a line like that? I don't know if it's legal in Japan's baseball leagues...Just curious.

@@rilian226いいえ日本でも退場になります。ですが、おそらくイチローはそれを覚悟の上で線を引いたんだと思います

I'll tell ya; I'd luv 2 c a "lost interview" RE: the "Pine Tar" game (especially where George Brett ripped George Steinbrenner).

That call was later overturned too...

@@rilian226 Yes indeed. Lee MacPhail upheld the protest and awarded the home run and ordered the game to be replayed from that point. Billy Martin made a fool of himself by protesting that Brett did not touch all 4 bases, which was quashed with a signed affidavit that the home run was legal and Brett had touched all bases. Martin then threw a fit and was thrown out of the game. The Royals went on to win 5-4.

Why did they even have the rule if the league wasn't going to enforce it?

@@PrometheusZandski Luv Lee MacPhail's explanation of the "pine tar" rule. "Well; the SPIRIT of the rule...."; George Steinbrenner had a very SPASTIC REACTION 2 THAT!!!!! I still LMFAO RE: this FBS!!!!! Christmas 1985; I received a personal Louisville Slugger Bat (w/my name on it) as a Christmas gift from my L8 mom (whom passed away 13 yrs ago this month). Upon receiving it; I asked her "Where's the pine tar?". She was CLUELESS AF!!!!!!

The same thing happened between Earl weaver & Ron Luciano just before the 4th. of a four game series.

I was just as surprised

But he was right.

Despite initial controversy, it seems that the introduction of AI for ball-strike decisions in the KBO League has been met with success. The AI ​​ball-strike decision system was named ABS (Automatic Ball-Strike System) by KBO, and the emotional fight between the umpire and the players has been significantly reduced, which shortened the game time even more than stuffs such as the pitch clock.

Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Covid sports period was awful but at the time its what the world really needed. I hope to never experience a time like that ever again

I paid $80 for a very sick friend to have his enlarged face placed in a seat at Citi Field. He loved it! Unfortunately, he passed after the season. Wifey told me I gave him a coupla more months looking for his face at the games. I miss you, Teddy... ❤

@@donnatlaw6172 That's awesome, and sorry for your loss.

@@rgr4475 Thanks, friend. Best $80 I ever spent.

That's right. Umps are control freaks.

Nothing that you'll notice on-field. Weaker umpires get less prestigious positions, and fewer good games. In particular, they don't get to work playoffs. Might not seem like much, but umpires do notice when they don't get quality games. A basic problem with anything more serious, such as say sending umpires back to the minors, is that they would have to build and maintain a much larger (and well paid) pool of umpires ready to rotate in (and risk being rotated out) when other umpires fall short.

Umps are little kids, not more mature than that.

can't blame them tbh
