MLB Umpires Being As*holes 

Nathan Pizzitola you won’t find any pop music on this channel unless it’s a Thug Life video

Nathan Pizzitola do you play wolfenstein? Your profile picture is from Wolfenstein. I played the wolfenstein that came out in 2009 for 7 years!!

I’ve never played it lol I just like the picture

it sucks

John Mayer that’s your opinion bud

I don’t know anyone except for a n g e l h e r n a n d e z

I Had 30 kids, named them all Angel Hernandez, and I've never even seen him ump a game.

I never coached at a high level. I did coach for several years in club ball. the only umpires I knew by name were the ones I liked. the ones I couldn't stand I didn't bother learning their names. They just got nicknames.... and not good ones

@@skipdawg702 Dipshit,Dumbass,Fuckhead?

Greg Gibson?

Bad umps do get games taken away from them, and they are disciplined, but it's kept in-house. To be fair, umpires are probably the most accurate of all team sport refs when it comes to call accuracy. NBA refs are a joke and NHL refs have "unwritten" rules about what calls to make and when. Umpires are fairly accurate, considering their angle makes it impossible (sometimes) to see the pitch properly.

Unions.

@@oron61 Unions are not the problem here, and framing it as such is ignorant as hell.

Then pray-tell why the heavily unionized MLB umps are not having their worst performers and their egotistical attention-getters dismissed?

Yeah, don't answer my question if you're too butthurt about your boring game to give an exact answer. If Hernandez isn't fired, my question still stands. If you can't comprehend that, get lost.

Knightmessenger That would be really bad for baseball. Players have no filter in arguments with umpires. As long as you don’t say “You ****” Or turn and face the ump/throw stuff, you probably won’t get tossed.

@@krinnphindalin6803 "Bad for baseball" but good for everyone else who isn't a pansy and can handle/find enjoyment in millionaires talking shit while standing around in the dirt. At least at "boring" NASCAR races you can get a radio scanner and hear drivers talk shit about everything around them.

The Terry Collins clip of his argument with the Ump is amazing lol

Rangers havent been relevant since their back to back WS apperances. Banister was thrown into a bad situation. It will be years b4 the team is ever relevant again and a new stadium wont help anything...just a bad team in a new stadium. Depleted farm system that was put all into getting pieces to fail at 2 WS...GOOOOOO RANGERS!!!!!😒😒😒😒😭😭😭😭

@@moonshinespaz8559 who hurt you bruh

Well you see when a player hits the ball, they run to a base and they end up running to home plate to make a score. Hope this helps you understand the rules of baseball

Seth Winters you need an award

@@moonshinespaz8559 They were only relevant in the past few years for getting demolished by Bautista!

Umps never get suspended. Their union backs them even when they are 100% wrong and MLB leadership doesn't have the juevos to stand up to the umpire's union. There is ZERO accountability for MLB umpires.

Lester’s a fucking idiot. Throws a clear ball and loses his mind over it. Ump shouldn’t have gone after him but don’t pretend Lester’s blameless here

@@SonicGlitchmaster1 I seen that too, maybe he was pissed at himself

mgtow Life's easy if you try It was def that he was just frustrated with the pitch

SonicGlitchmaster1 I’m a cards fan but he was mostly pissed at himself. He does the same thing Kershaw does

Baseball Fanatic The rating would be great but there would be major problems with language and live tv.

Grippli Games so what? most movies now days have tons of language in them anyway

Z Up don’t get me wrong fights are cool but I personally just wanna players chew out the umpire like in bull durham or whatever, like go happy Gilmore when he is cussing out the ball

Spanish or English?French or German?

they could make a show with that. "BIG PAPI CUSSES OUT UMPIRES"

Wyatt Webb same

Yeah that was the stupidest ejection ever

RIP

@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin no he did it jokingly if you ever watch Beltre play you'll see he loves the game he doesnt do it for the money only the announcers were laughing and it was just a joke. He shouldnt have been suspended let alone ejected it's a stupid ejection.

@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin you are just so precious xD.

drServitis HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA SAME

They're wearing chest protectors. Duh.

You're not bright enough either!

It's called a joke dumbasses

Just eat a large Round Table pizza

Attention aj...These . Are. Major . League. Baseball. Players. They. Know. What . They. Can. Say. And .Do. There. Are. No . Surprises. Here....they are big boys. Right?

@@jaydesrochers3276 Yes. And the fact that it is up to the umpire's opinion is absolute fucking horseshit. Home plate umpires are an obsolete part of the game only there to add human error. A computer could do everything a home plate umpire does, except the computer wont fuck up the game by having an ego when it fucks up (which it wont do anyway)

Interesting that you wrote all that "Were not watching you, umps", after watching a video exclusively about umps. Thanks - Lumpy

Why do boomers have to put their names in comments...it isn't a letter lumpy

@@nicbracknell So let me see if I understand this - You came to watch overpaid, steroid fueld Dominicans and El Gordo umpires get into roid rage fights with each other under the guise of "America's Great National Pastime", but you're having trouble enjoying all those expensive theatrics because I sign my name to my comments. Is that about it? Really? Boomer? Pick a category of human misfit. Apply it randomly to anyone you're having a discussion with. Does that help you deal with that horror of having to deal with seeing my sig on my comments? Really? Are you going to have to go to therapy or become a substance abuser or a cutter because of the mental anguish and trauma of seeing my name in my sig? Thanks - Lumpy

Very simply, Joe West is an idiot!

Stupid argument, fans pay good money to watch the game.

@@yotsu9497 A LOT of good money. Ticket prices are ridiculous because salaries are ridiculous. Maybe the umps are cranky because they aren't raking in the bucks like everyone else, but the game can't go on without them.

Too many fans are under the mistaken impression that the umpires controlling their game like they are supposed to means that they are trying to be the center of attention.

@smarterthanyous Solo. Solo!

@Mike Wilson Next thing .Robotic baseball players.. And wont be making the Bog SALARIES

1. Technology isn’t there yet. 2. It takes away the human element of the game 3. It takes away a major part of the game for catchers 4. It makes the game more boring 5. You won’t like some of the calls that zone will be making guarenteed

Tyler Reddick 1.) What is the foxtrax you ask? It’s a program that does exactly what you say doesn’t exist, and it works pretty fast, less then 2 seconds after the pitch. 2.) It takes away a negative human element of the game, (ego, bribery, bias) so that’s a good thing. 3.) As a catcher, it doesn’t, I would honestly prefer not having a ump behind me as I play as focusing on catching balls that can easily injury me is more important then thinking about how I have to prove I had possession of the ball as I tagged someone sliding into home before the umpire makes his split second decision and possibly calls him safe because he didn’t see I had possession. 4.) It wouldn’t, It just makes the game and calls more fair and reasonable.5.) I would, because there’s already a rule for balls in/out of the zone at the same time, (if the ball is one of the majority of either area, that area with the majority gets the call, aka if it’s mostly outside the strike zone, it’s a ball, if mostly inside the zone, it’s a strike.) That’s how the game’s supposedly be upheld, It just makes it harder for fans to bitch and use the umps as a scapegoat to the players’ mistakes. So if it’s a close call, and inside the zone is the majority, but you wanted a ball and your team just lost from the strikeout, you can’t blame it on a bad call, the call is perfect, but you have to blame it on the batter for not swinging at the pitch, but most fans don’t want to do that, they would rather use the umps as the reason they team lost.

Haha does look like him. That's Ron Kulpa, some smugass, terrible instigator umpire.

Best I can do is call a strike and I’m taking all the risk

Hernandez, Meals, and Bill Miller are the 3 worst umpires IMO. But there are many bad ones.

Tony Hughes don’t forget CB

Yes he is terrible. So is Laz Diaz.

That's overused footage if it's those two and you could make a whole series out of them let's just agree there needs to be all new umpires braught into the mlb

Ron Kulpa certainly trying to join the club

Too bad the announcers won't shut the fuck up and let us listen.

Jomboy Media

"I'm Rick Harrison, and this is my home plate... I would bargain about $1000 for this game-used homeplate."

Cyber Farmer an ump has been tossed from a game before. I believe it was the game where Pete rose bumped the ump. The ump was also sent packing, if my memory serves me right

jdspreest cool. They should do it more. Seems like today’s umps have such a poor attitude and a short fuse.

They do, but unfortunately they are other umpires. I think if it appears they are slightly wrong they will all cry themselves to sleep they're are so damn sensitive.

steve jones not sure how any of this has to do with politics but okay.....

Many umpires refuse to admit they're wrong.

You're obviously not an umpire, so I'm not going to get into why we should..............

steve jones you talking to me or someone else?

tell me about it

Joseph Hyde Beltre has only 3 ejections in his 20 year career and 2 of them were bs. One was him getting ejected for moving the batter circle and the other was when the umpire ejected the wrong player

WesleyAPEX yep I remember 2 of the 3 as a Rangers fan. The on deck circle was petty

WesleyAPEX moving the circle will always be funny as shit.

SullyStrong Yep it's so Beltre to do that too lol

You can even see the Royals agreeing with Ortiz

On RU-vid sure

Jordan Staal with the Dodgers celebrating in their dugout

well i Am a wizard from the future

I gotta ask, I’m new to this whole baseball thing, what’s up with the Greg Gibson thing?

Do a RU-vid search and watch the Van Slyke/Kelly standoff video. Those ten seconds towards the end of it became a trailer at the end of every 2014 MLB video. The video is entertaining but the constant references to it in every "ejection" video is starting to get tired.

Greg Gibson, as in Greg Gibson, the home plate umpire?

Jeff Koz more like fired. This is professional sports not little league.

Jeff Koz that’s illegal so no

Jeff Koz umpires get so overpaid between $8,000-$13,000 and they should be paid like $1,000 bc of their shit calls

David Wayne yes they should

Mr. Slimmy Jimmy that’s below minimum wage

More time for BIG lunch

yup, cause it was, also... FUck yeah baby KC mo champions for the first time in 30 years!!!!

ERIC HOSMER

"That's Horse SHit"

Good catch

Not even close. To see the game live is way better. You actually get to see every little thing that happens.

RamsFan 97 r/whoosh

Dominance oh shut the hell up.

@@Bubbyolo You throw kiddie tantrums too, eh?

Dominance ur probably a fat slob who eats chips while watching baseball games. Know ur place

They get emotional about it cause the game is their whole livelihood.

hypercriticalone holy shit! U ain’t lying man..

Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin Not rly

you can have tech help aid the umps sure but if you were to replace all umps with technology I dont think all calls will be accurate immediately. if technology were used lets say to determine if someone was out on a base there would have to be programming done before hand

JAY LOVE you couldn’t pay me enough to stand still bent over someone’s back for 4 hours 162 days a year.

Being a ref in any sport is an awful, thankless job. Umpires get the call right 95% of the time, which is much better than any other team sport officiating, and they still get treated like crap. It's no wonder some of them snap at spoiled millionaires arguing balls and strikes.

denelson83 *favorite

@@Frenite they are probably from Britain, that *is* correct spelling for british english

The REAL mike thegamerguy24 Baseball is American

@@Frenite that doesnt have anything to do with spelling a word in a different version of the same language

The REAL mike thegamerguy24 This video is about an American sport so there should be American spelling

Yeah but the umpire charged the mound lol

I think the ump would have come under fire if he charged the mound then ejected someone and he probably realized that at some point...a little contradictory. Why cant we hold the umps/refs up to the same standard as we hold the players and coaches????

PerryArt420 prove it. No secret? Ok then, I want proof of a giant conspiracy between the league the teams the umpires.

Typical .... NO one said giant Conspiricy between teams and umps, , First.... Learn to read EVERY word and again ... EVERYONE IN THE POSITION OF CONTROL UMPS INCLUDED GET PAID OFF.... Sheesh, Learn to read and understand what was written........ Sheesh

PerryArt420 typical, I use a word that contains more than one syllable and people don't understand it. Conspiracy is the acting of conspiring. Conspiring is jointly making plans to commit an unlawful ( rig the games) act. So before you get all pissed off, learn the definition of the word I used. I used that word based on you saying everyone is in on it ( rigging the games). By the way still waiting on any sort of proof.

NO ONE SAID CONSPIRICY, You still need to read everyword and understand what people say, Good Grief here , ONE MORE TIME, so you get EXACTLY what I said..... .> IN MY OPINION OF WATCHING SPORTS FOR OVER 50 YEARS... PerryArt420 1 week ago it's no secret..... EVERYONE in a position of control, Umps, included, get PAID OFF, to call bad plays.... CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? , All one syllable words, that OBVIOUSYLY You DON"T UNDERSTAND..... LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

PerryArt420 you don't need to say conspiracy. The definition fits. Just because the word isn't used doesn't mean it doesn't apply. The definition fits so you are claiming a conspiracy. Whether you use the actual word verbatim doesn't matter. You still have made a claim to a conspiracy. Give me proof. Stop getting all hot and bothered typing with caps and stop getting upset because you claim conspiracy without saying it based on the definition of the word and give proof. It's No big secret? Where is the proof?

Off topic

carter_ schnell but cool

And players would still object and whine about it.

Brian Cards 12 in 2016 that’ll be part 2. Also the one where the umpire threw out Joe Maddon on a trip to the mound

Brian Cards 12 in 2016 pretty sure they can do it

Kuruma Uzamaki I think the only time they can do it is if they're diying.

Andrew Carpanzano no the umps barely get a brake they have to stand there the whole game with only in between innings they get a brake at least for catchers they have a half inning brake

Kuruma Uzamaki so teams can call a break too then with no penalty? wait a minute..

the first one was at his ankles, i don't care what pitchcast says that was a ball, or just poor reciving by the catcher, either way i'm calling that a ball too

B0GGIEMAN101 So you're going to disagree with the fact that it was a strike because of where it hit the catchers glove? You must be a really inconsistent ump if that's how you decide 50/50 calls.

Jaune Arc for a close pitch like that, yeah that pitch dipped just before it crossed the plate, and it was pretty much at the ankles after the catcher caught it, I’m not saying it was the right call definitely borderline but can you really blame the ump?

Ball? Strike? ... either way, you’ve gotta try and touch those with 2 on you. Battle battle battle

rick kauffman hell yeah. I always tell my guys do not let the umpire decide the game. Take charge and don’t let the umpire make a bad call.

Few people know that the omitted part of that rule states: ...while the umpires themselves can do whatever they want to instigate the players, coaches, managers or substitutes, thereby having a reason to throw them out, because let's face it, they want air time too.

Baseball rules 9.00 (e) This rule is bullshit

Who gives a shit who gives a fuck.

Bill Cipher you don't understand anything about this rule. It's needed, it's pertinent and will be appreciated when used.

MT2Acatcher fine, if the person curses, eject him. But if he says that wasn’t a strike and he throws the hand foward , that’s unfair

NEVER giving what the people want.

Also the Jon Lester one.....an umpire should never force his way out to the mound
