MLB has got to get rid of human umpires. They are completely obsolete now. We have had accurate electronic ball tracking for YEARS and yet the MLB still bows down to these umpires despite some of their bad calls directly impacting the outcome of a game.
There’s a ton of calls that can’t be automated in real time. The only computerized umpiring that we’ll see for the foreseeable future is the strike zone.
@@cooperklips1440 So what? I'm sick and tired of everything stagnating because of "tradition". The MLB is scared of the pitchers union and MLB won't discipline umpires who make themselves main characters in a game.
These umps this season have a very, a very short fuse. I wish MLB would look into some of these ejections. Like the one that happened with Judge. As far as missed balls and strikes, these umps should have their score card reviewed EVERY month and those who are less then like 90% should be fined. I know that will never happen but these umps will keep running rough shot until someone stops them.
the most entitled officials of all sports, ejecting someone because they complained of your mistake, they should be suspended for a game without pay too for every bad/wrong call they make
If you were a manager, would you bench your shortstop for every time he made an error or struck out looking? Of course not. The average umpire misses 7-12 pitches per game. If you suspend them 1 game for every pitch they miss, they umpire about 10 games per year. Then you’d have all AAA and AA umpires working MLB games and you’d then regret suspending the MLB umpires.
As bad as the umpires seem, they’re set to have their best year (again) by accuracy %. They keep getting better, as much as fans think they’re getting worse
@@timbailey3846 no the weren't the may look good cause the catcher brings it back over the plate and these dumbass umps keep looking at where the glove is not where the ball crossed the plate. And some of the umps do it cause in their heads the fans are there for them
The problem with umpires is the fact that they are not held accountable for their ineptness. Think about it - if a baseball player is having a bad season and doesn't do a good job, they are demoted or released. And if they want to get back to the big leagues, they go home and work on their skills and try to improve. If an umpire has a bad season, they get assigned to a post season series and have no worries about being demoted or fired. And as far as improving their skills during the off-season, they couldn't care less. They go home and, judging by Hunter Wendelstedt and Doug Eddings, they spend the off-season eating doughnuts and cheeseburgers. Bottom line - THE UMPIRES DO NOT CARE HOW CRAPPY THEY ARE BECAUSE THEY CANNOT BE FIRED!!!
That’s BS. Umpiring is a very tough job and no human is perfect. Players get angry and that’s understandable. Happens all the time, it’s part of baseball.
I wonder how many of these situations involved Angel Hernandez? I'm sure he was involved in the first clip. He was after all the worst umpire in the history of the universe.
Ump takes his mask off in the first clip, not hernandez. Also, angel has a very different strike 3 motion, raising his hand into a fist, then down, and up again. Not sure if these clips are after he retired
With the AI technology we have now, there should, >Never< be a bad or wrong call by the umpire. When we watch baseball on TV we can see a Strike zone superimposed where the batter stands and can visually see where the pitched ball goes and is repeated many times, after that pitch. I would seem to me that the umpire should also have same view of the strike zone imposed on his face guard, (like pilots have) that tells him if it is a strike or ball and keep this game,, fair.
Those boxes are usually wrong though, they sometimes don't change the height for taller or shorter batters, they're always at an angle because you can't get a straight on view because the pitcher is in the way. The real time estimations are often off and close calls that are identified as wrong are sometimes ruled as correct when the umpire's performance is reviewed by officials after the game. There are of course calls that are clearly wrong, and seeing how far outside some of those calls are does lead some people to want to call for robo umps, but people argue when the call is right and so I don't think the umpires are the issue, I think it's more of a culture thing than a right or wrong issue.
Not in real time, it's at the ump's total discretion. They can be disciplined after a game, but they have a VERY strong union that makes it very difficult to discipline them in any meaningful way.
First. If you're going to show a strike zone on the screen, put it in the right place. It's from the knees to the letters., not the knees to.the belt. Second. Im.sick.of these stupid announcers whinning because a pitcher gets tossed without a warning. Read the rules. They don't have to give warnings. Third EVERYONE that has ever played knows you dont argue balls and strike or throw your equipment.
Question. Some of these were close calls on the balls and strikes. I understand the no argue rule. But isn't a strike or ball dependent upon where it crosses the plate, not where the catcher catches the ball? Especially with curves and sliders. It appears to me that these guys feel the ball to be called a strike has to be right down the middle. Doesn't work that way.
The strike zone is defined as this: The area over home plate for horizontal Top of the zone is the midpoint b/w the elbow and the hip Bottom of the zone is the hollow beneath the knee Strike zone is a 3D object, not a 2D box at the front of the plate
Only 21 minutes? Lmao I was expecting this shit to be going for HOURS. Seems like players and managers are getting elected every other day in baseball. For good reason too cause those umps have been absolutely awful this season
Why can’t players challenge pitches the way they do in the minors? Will it interfere with the flow of the game? So what if it does. The umpires need to improve on their calling of balls and strikes. It has been getting worse the last few seasons to include the 2024 season.
I dunno what happened to John Tumpane this year. He went from 94.4% accuracy to like 93%.....one of the worst. He used to be one of the most accurate behind the plate......
Umpires are way to soft and take their job to seriously. Players have consequemces and get find for stupid shit and u believe umpires should be fined or have consequences for their actions to
If it was proven - by video evidence - as a player, I'd NEVER pay the fine (for acting out) and would file a grievance - I umpired for 30 years (and worked with some of the bozos you've featured above) and I only had to ask 'someone to leave' on a handful of occasions......I also let someone 'blow off steam' (as long as they didn't make a scene) and it was NEVER on a "ball or strike" call!!!
Such a disrespect für the referees... is worst then in soccer. There may be some bad referees, but this allowed not such behavior from players or training staff.
Use the right grammar when you’re talking about Americas pastime, and don’t ever compare it to a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off running around a field crying, and begging a “referee” to hold up a sheet of paper.
I understand your point of view being from Europe. But they’re different games completely. If you dm me I’d love to take some time to explain the differences. Needless to say it’s going to be a long conversation. Baseball is very different compared to other sports when it comes to the umpire/ player, coach relationship.
I rarely agree with umps except in the case of Manny Machado. He came out of the womb with an attitude.
sloth

U get rid of the human umpires that takes away from a manager fighting and arguing for his team that can sometimes change the outcome of a game
Umpires are a huge tradition of baseball. Umpires are humans, mistakes happen and it’s the players job to not overreact.

Has anyone else noticed that the vast majority of these ejections were the umpire’s fault.
Yes I did terrible umpiring
Yes. However, a player cannot overreact. Umps are humans. Mistakes happen. It’s part of baseball

I’m pretty sure fining someone for poor performance is just flat out illegal
Yeah, whining because an umpire missed your call is a comedic way to fine someone 😂

i cannot wait until they bring the minor league challenge system into the majors to these umps can get humbled.
Or those players that keep challenging and the umpires get the call right. lol.
The majority of these were correct calls, you get in there and watch 95+ come in at you, not that easy pinhead

Amazing how so many of the comments here come from people who obviously have umpired in the major leagues for years.
Where can I get Boone's cute vest?

You guys need to import ABS(Automatic Ball-Strike System) from Korea.
We are SO~~~~~~~~ content with that.
Aaron judge is the most surprisingly on this 2024 season for the 1st time of his career he ejected
Pitch challenge system. Immediately. Come on.
Wow the Yankee coach/ manager got ejected a lot. Gotta feel bad for him.

Worst one was where they threw out the coach for something a fan said

Just umpires want to be seen as tough guys rather than professional
So pathetic
bs comment. Umpires are humans and mistakes happen. Umps have a HUGE amount of pressure on their shoulders that neither me or you could handle.
All these thrike 3 calls shows how bad the umps are. Catchers don't help framing a clear ball that they shape to make the ump make the call
Carrapazza and the walking toddler that is Mike Estabrook should be canned
And the ejections just keep on coming

So are there any controls over obvious bad calls and early ejections?

Some of these players, are overreacting, most of these pitches were pretty close
