Perfect position for that call. If you zoom on you can see he was out.

Exactly what I did snd I freeze framed. Can’t quote see the tag so can’t be sure but I’ll say it was as close as it gets, and I thought he was out too.
truest thing I've read all day. I get very little crap in high school games, next to none in high-school age tournament games, some crap in LL juniors (13-14), more crap in LL Majors (12U) games (depends on the league somewhat), and endless yelling, griping, complaining in LL minor divisions (8's, 9's and 10's). I don't bother working LL minors any more, complete waste of my time, and even Majors I'm not working all that many games until post-season... too much better ball to do with much less yelling.
Don't you understand that this is what determines who's going to play pro ball???? For some of these parents that's their ticket to a high style retirement. ; -)
I’m a little league coach.... I still cannot wrap my head around the whole concept of arguing a call in game played by CHILDREN! This is stupid on steroids!
When I was officiating LL this coach's actions would have gotten him eliminated from coaching for the rest of the year. Our governing body didn't condone any action like this and would eliminate any coach that acted like this coach was acting. It was a pleasure working for this LL when I was young.
I thought the umpire handled the situation well. Umpiring is hard. Sometimes you get calls wrong. Sometimes you get it right. But the sign of a good umpire is when you see one that avoids a fight. This umpire did that, he didn't try to escalate the situation, handled himself very professionally. The coach that was ejected was out of line and a jerk. That coach set a bad example. Whenever you see kids playing up (9u playing 10u), the younger teams parents usually have big chips on their shoulders and are very arrogant. The fan yelling at the end is a classic example of that...
I was a paid umpire for 2 years and volunteer for 5. From little league, travel, and high School. After a while, the verbal abuse ever ygame began to whear on my mental health. No matter what call you made, good or bad, someone was yelling at you and calling you names. I quit years ago now. I miss the game every day, but the only way i would return was if they made the spectators watch from the outfield, behind the fence, or just remove them altogether.
Just gotta have a “fuck em” attitude lol you’re there to do a job. If coaches/parents want to be enraged in a kids baseball game. Let em lol I find it funnier to keep them in the game longer and let them get more mad before I eject 🤣
@@cavscout1418 I feel yah. It’s not the easiest job in the world. I do travel ball for NCS and Perfect game in SoCal. The younger the teams are, the worse the parents and coaches are from what I found. Little league parents and pony baseball are the absolute worst
I think he was safe at the plate. That being said, pro umps miss calls all the time. These are local umps probably making less than $30 a game. They are going to miss some calls. The real shame is the coaches and the parents. "Need my glasses" - Get your mask off quicker" Please - you know you can go to the classes, become an ump and do it yourself if you would like. Then you'll see how easy it isn't. No wonder every youth sport in every area at every age level is hurting for officials. It's not worth dealing with the crazies for the minimal coin you make from it.
First Name Live, I thought he was safe. Slowed down he’s definitely out. Coach is a nut. Acting like that and then saying “if you want respect, you’ve gotta show it” LOL!!! Super disrespectful coach.. and at theLL level. Wow!!! Fan in the stands is a total mouth breather. My guess is that Blue probably should’ve removed him from behind home earlier... send the troglodyte down passed the dugout. Let him know the repercussion If he continues... Then the simpleton can decide for himself if he wishes to abide and enjoy a kids baseball game, or if he wants to continue to make it about him instead of the kids and get his (probably drunk) dullard can tossed.
If the kid had slid with his leg out instead of tucked it wouldn’t have even been close. But again we live in society where these kids never make mistakes and it’s always someone else’s fault. So tired of this victim mentality parents and coaches are teaching these kids.
The commenters here don't get it: the correctness of the call doesn't matter. The ump doesn't have instant replay. If it's a close call and they get it wrong then they got it wrong. A missed call shouldn't result in this behaviour. A correct call shouldn't result in this behaviour.
Rule #1 as a coach you did not say back to an umpire "Don't point your finger at me" once you say that you will get tossed out of the game in HS Baseball that gets you suspended 1 game maybe more depending what umpires write in their reports.
Angel Bonilla knows what’s up. Most don’t. I thought he was safe at live speed... but definitely out. I don’t know if the bat being left there is incidental or genius, but that was a poor slide. Great call. Coach is a dolt, but not as much of one as the obnoxious, ignoramus with the camera. “Take your mask off quicker blue”😂🤣😂😅
In our league, the manager could've been run just for having such disrespectful fans. Honestly, people getting this worked up about little league baseball...as entertaining as it is, it's pathetic.
For those of us who eat, sleep and breathe the game of baseball, it is easy to get her worked up a little, a little, even at a LL game. I have managed LL for years, I am on the board at our park, VP of baseball at our park, manage the all star right now. I have had bad calls against me and calls go my way. It is what it is. I dont allow my parents to act like that and if they do, I will toss them way before the ump does. Frustration is inevitable if you feel the ump is making bad calls, but having class is the most important thing. These kids look up to their coaches and parents. If us adults act a certain way, the kids think it is ok to act that way too. Keep that in mind for next time.
idk about the foul call but the kid looked out at the plate, he never touched the plate with his feet or legs, he came to a complete stop before the plate, probably because the bat was laying there. people need to calm down and look at the replay.
Little League is conducted by some of the worst adults to walk the earth. It's fucking little league and coaches/parents think they're in Yankee fuckin stadium.
Im not there...blue was closer however if you Freeze it exactly at :46 you "Could see" why he was called out. Cather appears to have knee tagged prior to runner touching the plate. I think he was out
It's amazing how little league coaches and parents seem to always know better than an umpire, especially when they'd never take on the hapless position to begin with. The greatness of enjoying kids only being young once gets lost in adults self serving behavior.
The hecklers in the stands are an embarrassment. It's sad when adults can't deal with a call in a little league game (which happened to be the right call, btw). Try to set an example for your kids.
Why do people keep referring to this as a Little League game?? It is NOT Little League. See the runner at 2nd leading off? No leads in LL. This is a travel ball game.
Coaches and parents need to understand that this is for their kids and not them. This is how you ruin your kids experience. Instead of blowing his top he should be a model for his kids and handle the situation calmly.
Wait…why is there a shortage of youth sports officials?? This is a perfect instructional video of how adults should not behave when children are trying to PLAY A GAME.
looks to me like the runner was definitely out. I see nothing to conclude they even got to the plate (BTW, tell your batters to get the bat out of the way). The coach should be ejected and banned.
This is why umps are quitting by the hundreds. Get yelled at and sworn at by people who do not even know the rules. Coaches like this clown need to be handed
Agreed. Such a tough time getting and keeping umpires it's crazy. What doesn't thise coach get about "judgement call"? Out/Safe, fair/fould, ball/strike.....no agreuments allowed.
I've been an umpire for 8 years and the coach of the red team ought to be ashamed of himself. Teams embody the philosophy of their coach, and I highly doubt that team stays together very long
love how the red coach whines about finger being pointed at him and than does the same thing to the umpire. not to mention he did touch the umpire more than once
Forget about the finger pointing. Coach getting up in arms over that was ridiculous. Even more ridiculous was the coach getting his face all the way up into the umpire's face. Should have turned his back to him and his partner should have been escorting the coach off the field after the ejection.
if the kid at home slid properly by extending his leg, it wouldn't have been close but if you watch carefully the runners foot touches home, but with our angle we cant tell when he tagged him so your guess is as good as mine
Maybe the coach should have spent his time teaching his players how to run the bases and slide properly rather than how to argue with the umpires? Just saying. All that ump did make a couple of calls. He didn't say any of the kids were bad kids, or even that they were bad at baseball, and yet people are reacting like he threatened their children with violence. That's just sad, and the real tragedy is that all occurred in front of more than two dozen young boys who just wanted to play some baseball. Umpire is the one position on the field that everyone thinks they can do better than the person actually doing it, but strangely the position no one really wants to play. At least the kids knew how to behave themselves, unlike the adults in the area, so maybe there is some hope for the future.
@@jonathonervin7845 you get to be on the field, an active part of the game. No one else gets to do that except players. Is that what you like about it or not? Do you suit up because you love getting yelled at every time there's a close call? No, you do it because you feel part of the game. Like a player.
It was hard to see the foul ball call but the ump was in perfect position to see it. Can't ask for more than that. As for the play at the plate, runner was out. Coach for the red team is a complete idiot and should not be coaching any youth sports....and maybe should go on a diet.

Coach says "don't you point your fingers at me".........as he walks up and points his fingers at the ump.
“You don’t put fingers in people’s faces!”
Immediately puts a finger in umpire’s face.
I agree with you on that Marcus and he did it a few times before that!
He literally approaches him pointing his finger at him and ten seconds later says "Don't you point your fingers at me". Guy's a dolt.
"You don't put your finger in people's faces!" (while putting his finger in the umps face) Priceless
"You don't put your finger in people's faces..."
**Puts finger in umpire's face**
"That's crap..."
"You don't put your finger in peoples face!", then immediately sticks his finger in the umpires face. What a tool.
"You don't put your fingers in other peoples faces!" as he puts his finger into another person's face......
Props to the reasonable coach on the left there telling his own team to knock it off and be better.
Parents and bad coaches are the reason umpiring is a dying art .
Perfect position for that call. If you zoom on you can see he was out.

A baseball game where every adult acts like children and the kids act like adults. Game over.
Don't you understand that this is what determines who's going to play pro ball???? For some of these parents that's their ticket to a high style retirement. ; -)
I’m a little league coach.... I still cannot wrap my head around the whole concept of arguing a call in game played by CHILDREN! This is stupid on steroids!
Exactly. The ump calls the game. It's stupid to argue, it's a bad example to argue, and it's futile to argue.
When I was officiating LL this coach's actions would have gotten him eliminated from coaching for the rest of the year. Our governing body didn't condone any action like this and would eliminate any coach that acted like this coach was acting. It was a pleasure working for this LL when I was young.
A well deserved ejection.

Same. There is always some dad behind home plate complaining.
This is my 3rd year calling little league and grandparents is the absolute worse
Just gotta have a “fuck em” attitude lol you’re there to do a job. If coaches/parents want to be enraged in a kids baseball game. Let em lol I find it funnier to keep them in the game longer and let them get more mad before I eject 🤣
@@DaRiotShield I tried to to take that approach, but it just seemed to make matters worse when you finally tossed em.

Correct call. Tag was clean. That coach is a horrible example for the kids.
Fax
If you look exactly at 46 seconds into the video and push pause, you are correct sir.
Ump might be reconsidering the $50 to put up with this
Another video which confirms to me the very reason I do not umpire LL baseball after doing it for ten years. Parents and coaches just like this.
A jerk like that has no business coaching anything, let alone youth sports. He also needs to watch his language.
That call at home could have gone either way.
I think he was safe at the plate. That being said, pro umps miss calls all the time. These are local umps probably making less than $30 a game. They are going to miss some calls.

Play it in slow motion. The runner was out.
Little League umpires are mostly volunteers, so they're getting nothing.
He was safe at home plate...foot got in before the tag
Kid was out at home. Glove beats his knee to the corner of the bag
Call on the plate was correct. Player never extended his legs on the slide and the catcher placed the tag on the legs.
0:45 He's out at the plate!! Great call ump!!
looks safe to me, pretty easy too
Out all day. Watched in 1080P at 0.25 speed. Catcher got his left knee before right toe hits the plate. Plain as day.
no way man
Thought it was pretty bang bang, I probably would have called him safe though.
First Name
Live, I thought he was safe.
Slowed down he’s definitely out.
Coach is a nut. Acting like that and then saying “if you want respect, you’ve gotta show it” LOL!!! Super disrespectful coach.. and at theLL level.
Wow!!!

that right foot gets there easy

“Take your mask off quicker blue”😂🤣😂😅
Correct Dave.
At 46 seconds into the video. Kid was tagged out at the plate. Great call.
Lighten up its Little League. The coach had it coming and some of the umpires in the stands need to learn to keep their comments to themselves.
I’ve watched this play several times and blue might of got it right

The parents on my team just gossip and occasionally yell out yea when they hear a ball hit the bat or and out or safe call.
Good on the opposing coach for curbing his parents....that’s right don’t be like the opponent who screams and yells at the umpire......
Word of advice to idiot fans and coaches. when you do this any close or questionable call will NOT go your way. think about it.
idk about the foul call but the kid looked out at the plate, he never touched the plate with his feet or legs, he came to a complete stop before the plate, probably because the bat was laying there. people need to calm down and look at the replay.
You need to calm down and look at the replay. Kid's foot touched the plate before the catcher came around for the tag.
All these dad's think that they can yell at Little League Umps like MLB...grow the fuck up
Teaching the kids proper sportsmanship, way to go.
The base umpire should’ve got in between them when he started approaching aggressively
Little League is conducted by some of the worst adults to walk the earth. It's fucking little league and coaches/parents think they're in Yankee fuckin stadium.
Im not there...blue was closer however if you Freeze it exactly at :46 you "Could see" why he was called out. Cather appears to have knee tagged prior to runner touching the plate. I think he was out
The coach should never coach again
Why?
great example for the kids there Billy Bob
*coah* You don’t put your finger in people’s faces!
*proceeds to put finger in umpires face*
Adults ruin everything. This is the result of locking all the vacant fields and not allowing kids to go play games by themselves
The parent should have just reviewed this video prior to committing the act.
That coach sounds just like Biff Tannen from back to the future movie.
Good call he was out at the plate
I agree I've been umpireing for a few years and if you slow the video down you can tell he was out
LiveSongs yes he was out so! Parents and or coaches don’t have the right to be assholes period!
Safe. Tie goes to the runner.
lmfao the catcher was frozen for a hot minute
He was out at home
The kid on the red teams first warm up throw came with some gas... wasnt expecting that
all the Dads yelling are ex-high school wannabes
I feel so bad for umpires. The level of shit they put up with is unimaginable.
Dude’s saying “fear us” at a 9u game lmao😂
I never see sports film with this quality, I’m impressed

At live speed, I thought the runner was safe at home, but when I played it in slow motion, at 25%, he looks like he's out.
There should be a 100' fence that parents/coaches have too stay behind during all kids sports
I had a coach who got ejected at least 10 times in one season and he still came back after the ejections to coach and he wasn’t supposed to
The games after the ejections
Wouldn’t have a problem at home if that kid slid correctly
Wait…why is there a shortage of youth sports officials??
This is a perfect instructional video of how adults should not behave when children are trying to PLAY A GAME.
Kid never reached the plate was out and it wasnt even close
Someone needs a GOOD snickers bar 😂😂😂
No body fears you old man. Settle down and eat ur sunflower seeds while your kid lives out your dreams for you.
He was out from a fellow umpire
agreed
When in doubt, call'em out.
yeah, shane sorry but probably not the best advice or guideline to go by when officiating a game. sorry
Slowed the play down to .25 made the video full screen it was a close play but the ump got the call right he was out
Barry Jowers thats what i
Did at first glance he looked safe but he got the call right
looks to me like the runner was definitely out. I see nothing to conclude they even got to the plate (BTW, tell your batters to get the bat out of the way). The coach should be ejected and banned.

Definitely fair,
Definitely out
ou have no way of knowing as you can't see the landing place from this video. Get real!!!
Dude got ejected after looking at review he was wrong too that’s a tough day as a coach
Call at plate was an out. The kid didn't extend legs he curled. Coach needs to chill, he couldn't c shit from 3rd base.
Great example for the kids coaches and parents. We’re all proud of you.
On a lighter note… this looks like a pretty cool little league field. Farmland… ‘Mercia!
I miss those days.
It was the right call. Kid did not extend his leg and his foot had clearly not touched the plate when he got tagged.
That coach u be off my field for arguing a fair and foul ball
He was out. Great call. Should have moved bat out of way. The fair foul call I obviously couldn't tell
The 3b COACH was sure not where he belonged with a runner on second and a base hit. Maybe he should fix himself first...
"Get you mask off faster, blue" So he wasn't watching the flight of the ball. People are idiots
That was payback for questioning his foul call.
You don’t put your finger in someone’s face...then he puts his finger in the umps face. What an embarrassing loser that coach is.
Leslie Neilson in the Naked Gun.
and people wonder why there's an umpire shortage. smh
I watched it in slow mo and the ump made the right call. It was very close but he got tagged out. Watch it in 0.25
if the kid at home slid properly by extending his leg, it wouldn't have been close but if you watch carefully the runners foot touches home, but with our angle we cant tell when he tagged him so your guess is as good as mine
Great call though at home
Maybe the coach should have spent his time teaching his players how to run the bases and slide properly rather than how to argue with the umpires? Just saying.

Kid must be signing a major league contract after the game!!!
The guy at home was way out
Why would anyone want to be an ump with all of the shi$ they have to put up with.
Get to feel like a baseball player without any athleticism
@@jasonl8720 this comment makes no sense, at no point in my umping career have I suited up and thought "this is just like being a player".
