MLB | Umpires bad luck 

The fact the catchers are so keen to react the way they do really shows, they know that pain lol.

Every catcher went to help the home plate umpire except posey. He completely ignored it, even after the play was done, he just walked away. That’s just cold

Sometimes WE hate their job; sometimes THEY hate their job.

It's funny how when you catch or umpire you can wear gear covering 95% of your body and the ball finds that exposed 5%.

I love seeing the players helping the umpires that is good sportsmanship

Love how the players in most cases really did care.

This is what I love about baseball. Pretty much every situation both the catcher and batter are at that umpire's side keeping him up.

1:28 his reassuring smile reminds me of my grandfather.

"I don't think that hit him in a good spot" You mean there's actually a good spot on your body to get hit by a 95 mile an hour spherical missile?

2:53 What an absolute stud just walking that one off

2:53 thats what you call 2 balls and a strike all in one pitch

I've read some of these comments & I realize that most people just don't understand how fast that baseball is going. Anyone who says that it didn't hurt that bad is just plain ignorant.

Damn, I would go back there without one of those old timey padded shields they used to use.

That first one was perfect! That’s for all your bad calls! Karma

me before watching: hell yes, umps getting rekt compilation! me after watching: i... feel bad?

At 90 miles per hour, those balls are moving at 132 feet per second. That is approximately 0.06 seconds to react to a ball that misses the glove. Hats off to the umpires in these vignettes.

That first clip really bothered me you gotta help the guy out when he takes 90+ to the face common

He should’ve just titled this “ouch”

I do appreciate how the players react with some concern to help them out.

That clip used for the thumbnail was sone heads up care by the players, honestly impressed with the players reaction to the umpire.

Batters hitting the umps: don’t care Catchers: MY BEST FRIEND HAS BEEN SHOT

1:22 OOOOF THAT LOOK LIKE IT HURT ( also that was a bruh moment )

The catcher grap umpire’s hand in time🤣🤣

Makes you realize how unprotected the umpire actually is.

I love the catchers looking out for the umpire but also holding out the glove for another ball. The umps don't even hesitate

Nice to see players and umpires (people) actually care for one another!!

UGGGHHHH some of those are hard to watch! Especially the neck shots

you gotta feel for these umpires

7:19 “F&uck baseball, it’s also available on iTunes...”

i remember back in HS, a sophomore kid refuses to wear a mask during a friendly game with us seniors. (he was the catcher). there was no umpire, just a simple batting game. surprise, batter touched the ball, ball went high straight to his left eye. poor kid looked like a hundred bees stung his face.

This was amazing that they all helped the umps!

4:35 that girl in the backgrounds face lmfao

Buster Posey just didn't care if the umpire was dead ! That sure changed my thoughts about Posey.

5:05 that was a good job by the catcher getting the out first the going to help the ump

@5:55 That is just brutal. Even with a cup, that gives me pain just seeing it.

Who remembers the external chest protectors umpires wore 40+ years ago like shields? Today’s umps don’t wear a lot of protective gear

Oof Buster walking away just looks really cold...ik it's a live ball and everything but afterward you can check on him

When playing 'A' grade I was home base Ump for a "B' grade side and took a ball to the throat, the scorer behind the net just kept yelling at me because she couldnt/didnt hear the call, nobody would stand in for me so I had to keep umping, that was my worse day in my baseball career, and the last time I home base umped.

It’s a damn tough job, and not nice to see anyone get hit like that That ball is travelling whether from the pitcher or off the bat Think I’d be wearing protection everywhere if doing that .. soft places, everywhere ... you’d just see my eyes

Man, I'm feeling those ones where the ump got hit in the not protective equipment.

Out of all the videos you've done.. this one's my favorite

the third umps reaction cracked me up! I hope I am not the only one finding this funny.

I wouldn’t even wish this on Angel Hernandez! Yikes!! That’s rough! 🤕

Holy moly, these are brutal!

Nice vid feel bad for the umps

This is why, when I umpire, I take a stance with one forearm across my thigh so that the hand is shielding the tender parts.

Loved the video

7:18

Almost got all the way through this. Brutal. Players assisting is Absolute Class.

Damn shame we have no Joe West/Angel Hernandez clips here 😂

i hope the Umpires are all okay after this video.

Buster doesn’t had any concerned over that umpire guy...so sad!

They always put the old dudes back there lol

Tom Hallion really got his ass in the jackpot there.

Every clip - "Please be Joe West, please be Joe West..."

i like the good mortality of both the batter and the catcher to see if the ump is ok

The real game in baseball is between the umpire, the catcher, the pitcher and the batter. There's a very subtle game that goes on with them.

Two years ago I was behind the plate for a really high level 17u game with a pitcher throwing low to mid 90s that was already committed to Louisville...anyway, fastball comes in at the top of the zone and the batter tips it and hit me square between the eyes (usually the mask goes one way and the ball the other and that takes away a lot of the energy) my head went straight back and I was told the ball just went straight down. It damn near knocked me out. I was seeing spots and all that. The catcher, God bless him, bear hugged me so I wouldn’t just fall flat on my face. They ended calling an ambulance and I went to the ER. Grade 4 concussion or something like that. I was out of action for over a month. It ain’t no joke getting smacked like that.

5:56 Even the audience feels the pain

2つ目はキャッチャーもバッターも素晴らしい

As you can see, the equipment only helps so much. Dale Scott (featured at 8:01) had his career ended by a concussion and whiplash from a foul ball (not the one featured here). Greg Bonin not only had his career ended by a concussion, but he still has memory problems from it. As a local umpire, I had my face mask cracked by a ball that hit me in the chin, dropping me like a boxer. I was briefly unconscious.

I was watching a game once where Steve Palermo--the late great hero umpire-- just took one shot after another behind the plate within about two batters. Palermo , true to form, just started laughing along with the catcher about it.

I don't remember who the umpire was, because it happened 20 years ago, during Three Rivers Stadium's last season, the home plate umpire took a ball square to the face and was knocked out cold. I just remember that he was laying flat on his back with his arms out to either side like he had been shot dead. Everyone was so relieved when he started to move again.

Nice video dude

Some of these pitches move really weird at the last millisecond. There’s no avoiding it.

In little league, coaches had to umpire on their off days … we sat behind the plate with a simple chest protector and an old fashioned mask … got hit more than once …

2:53 "Got him underneath his thigh." Um...no, that's not where it got him...

Umpire: "Stri-" *gets hit by ball* *wakes up in hospital* - "ONE"

Catchers reaction is gold, old umpire is knocked stupid and probably in trouble, but where's the ball?

6:52 "fuck baseball is also available on iTunes" 🤣🤣🤣

some pitchers and catchers do this when he makes a bad call 🔫💀

I'm happy to see this .🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nice video bro

*Angel Hernandez drops to the ground after being hit* catcher and hitter - oh no...

I bet these umps miss the body shield of the 70s.

Ya gotta wear a mask. It saves lives.

Could probably use a neck guard attachment like some hockey goalies do

I like it

Another reason not to have any more umpires. They're the only ones on the field who can't react at the speed of a professional baseball player.

2:55 when ump gives you a bad call in the last at bat so you get pay back 😂

The umps need to go back to that shield that the American League umps used back in the day.

buster was more worried about the ball

That one umpire was "ball fiVE"

LMAO. Posey gives no F's about the ump lying prone on the ground. 😂

Baseball sports haha 😂

5:04 this happened to my brother while he was playing catcher and he had to go to the ER

0:50 gdamn you can see how much force is behind those pitches, even after ricocheting off the mask it blasts his shoulder super hard. First two umps got blasted right on the chin, that'll ring the bell upstairs for sure. And FYI, if you're bell is rung like that, you have a concussion.

Some of these guys looked like they were taking sniper fire!!

A couple clips irritated me by the lack of caring. But the rest of them were very helpful.

Can’t believe some of the players show care even if the ump has been bias to the other team

Cool

I’m a football fan and sometimes joke about baseball but I forget that they’re throwing those balls at 90+ MPH

i came here for angel hernandez where is he lol

Danger pay!

very good video shows concern and camaraderie/sportsmanship between between all MLB players/umpires. One exception, the very first clip, those players were ass h----s. They just let the poor umpire lie there and looked for the damn ball, unbelievable.

That first guy cared more about the ball and to speak to the thrower than he did for the umpire.

Sometimes it doesn't pay enough to be an umpire. 💰

Surprised that doesn't happen more often.

Even with a mask that stuff hurts!!!

6:53 I didnt realize that was Blackmon until he said it was, I forgot how different he looks without the beard
