MLB Umpires SUCK this season!!

PapoZalsa · 06-02-2010, 08:12 PM

The first base umpire in the game between Detroit and Cleveland tonight blew a NO-Hitter by a bad call in the 9th inning. The guy was OUT, no doubt. UNBELIVEABLE!!!!!

This bad call erased a NO-Hitter to pitcher Galarraga and history for the Detroit Tigers.

This season the freaking umpires sucks big time!

They should have reviews for plays like that...

I'm sorry, do they still play Major League Baseball?

Dude, you should listen to the Bmore sports talk radio around here. The hosts are doing all they can to sound somewhat hopeful, but even then they admit we're terrible.

This year was supposed to be a step forward for the youth. They've looked bad. Other than Markakis, but you can set your watch by him. Oh well, better luck next year. And at least I can start setting up tee times with the O's before the allstar break.

The umpire now admits that after watching the replay it was a bad call. And no he feels bad that blew a perfect game for the pitcher, Fcktar!

Well we know who won't be Umping in the Worl Series!

DETROIT (AP)—Armando Galarraga squeezed the ball in his mitt, stepped on first base with his right foot and was ready to celebrate the first perfect game in Detroit Tigers’ history.

What happened next will be the talk of baseball for the rest of this season and likely a lot longer.

Umpire Jim Joyce emphatically called Cleveland’s Jason Donald(notes) safe and a chorus of groans and boos echoed in Comerica Park.

Then Joyce emphatically said he was wrong!!!!

“It was the biggest call of my career, and I kicked the (stuff) out of it,” Joyce said, looking and sounding distraught as he paced in the umpires’ locker room. “I just cost that kid a perfect game.”

“I thought he beat the throw. I was convinced he beat the throw, until I saw the replay,” he said after the Tigers’ 3-0 win.

It’s rare for an umpire to acknowledge a mistake and, in a sport that still relies on the human eye more than any other sport, it’s certain to prompt a push for Major League Baseball to use increased replays.

As it stands, baseball replays can only be used for questionable home runs. There’s no appealing a judgment call, either by replay or protest. A blown call by first base umpire Don Denkinger helped tilt the 1985 World Series, and followed him throughout his career.

Ugh dont forget about Bill Hohn who threw Roy Oswalt of the Astros out for no reason a few days ago. I was at that game, everyone was like wtf. Glad he got a nice talking to by Bud.

PapoZalsa · 06-03-2010, 07:59 PM

I would it prefer to be in the records book as pitching a perfect game instead of the Corvette. The perfect game is history, the Corvette is not!

Lemers · 06-03-2010, 08:06 PM

He may not be in the record books for a perfect game, but when people talk about perfect games he will be discussed more than any of the pitchers that actually pitched one. Except maybe Don Larsen

PapoZalsa · 06-06-2010, 02:30 PM

Don't believe this freaking umps they keep screwing up day after day on their calls!!!

Anatoray · 06-10-2010, 12:07 PM

No overturn, as expected. While it would have been great to see it overturned, it also would have set a precedent for all future call disputes. This will go down as one of the biggest stories in sports this year, and possibly this decade.
