[–]Panda412 94 points95 points ago

That whole situation was bullshit

[–]wolfbaden6 47 points48 points ago

It wasn't nearly as bad as R. A. Dickey being forced to cut off the bracelets on his hand that his daughters made him before he climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro. They matched the color of his glove. Mind you they were on his gloved hand so they couldn't even really distract batters.

[–]jsreid 11 points12 points ago

also, didn't he have them on all season?

[–]yangar 17 points18 points ago

And the ump had some kind of PowerBand crap on his wrist too. Awesome.

[–]wildcard03 5 points6 points ago

There reasoning was the distraction it would cause the batter by viewing it. The only people that have to follow that rule are pitchers.

[–]6h057 1 point2 points ago

Except it wasn't even that distracting and the ump was just being a dick.

[–]melthornal 2 points3 points ago

Every preseason game, every game so far.

The most obnoxious part is when, after he was forced to cut them off and complied without questioning, the following inning the umpire came out to bitch him out. To which he responded with a 'fuck the fucking off' sort of face. Which is telling for Dickey, because he doesn't curse, not even with facial expressions. That is how annoyed he was.

[–]KryptosV2 40 points41 points ago

Are you really not allowed to wear bracelets when you climb Mt. Kilimanjaro? That is bizarre.

[–]Von_Dredd 26 points27 points ago

His sentence was poorly worded. The daughter made it before the player climbed Kilimanjaro. An ump made him cut it off during/before a game.

[–]Kashew 1 point2 points ago

[–]pascontent 26 points27 points ago

I don't understand...baseball players can't cheer for their own team?

[–]demerdar 14 points15 points ago

they can, but you are on a considerably short leash when you start arguing balls and strikes from the dugout, only to hear someone yell something from that same dugout.

[–]baseballjew4568 40 points41 points ago

The rule is that you're not allowed to argue balls and strikes. Period. But it happens all the time. An umpire with a bigger zone, like the blue yesterday, will get bitched at periodically about his strike/ball calls. Rarely does this result in an ejection. Especially not when you eject a team's best player in the second inning of a game from the fucking dugout. In the umpire's defense however, you could see him give multiple warnings toward the dugout before tossing Kemp.

[–]Lolologist 17 points18 points ago

We live in the Twenty-first century, for fuck's sake. Use lasers or some shit, normalize the strike zones. Is that so hard? Or is half of the "fun" of baseball bitching and moaning about some umpire's calls?

[–]L15t3r0f5m3g 13 points14 points ago

This. Sports need more lasers.

[–]baseballjew4568 1 point2 points ago

No. Just no. I don't mind replay for boundary calls, but not for the strike zone. I feel like it would taint the game somehow. The entire beauty of baseball is the human aspect.

[–]Lolologist 14 points15 points ago

See, this is exactly what I was talking about. People like you would rather have the long arguments as to whether or not any ball was or wasn't a strike. You know what? Either it is, or it isn't, a strike. No fuzziness.

[–]baseballjew4568 6 points7 points ago

Long arguments? You can't argue balls and strikes. I'm a catcher. A huge part of baseball is learning an umpire's strike zone early in the game, and then relaying it to your teammates so they can adjust accordingly. It's a part of the game. Has been for centuries.

[–]wildcard03 1 point2 points ago

Every time reddit talks about sports I just shake my head. It's not that simple as adding lazers.

[–]baseballjew4568 6 points7 points ago

On the other hand, everyone in the sports subreddits are extremely nice and knowledgeable.

[–]JinzoBlaze 2 points3 points ago

exactly, especially since every single batter has a different strike zone.

[–]Honztastic 32 points33 points ago

It doesn't matter if he was giving warnings. He was cheering his teammate.

That's one of the worst abuses of the power of an ump to give a hook I've ever heard of. That's Joe West type bullshit.

[–]baseballjew4568 11 points12 points ago

Pretext: I'm a lifetime Dodgers fan and Kemp is my favorite player right now. But he was given multiple warnings, and the blue said he didn't wanna hear another word from him. Kemp immediately responded with "Let's go, Dre!" (Or whatever it was.) It was childish for Kemp to retort, even if his words were acceptable. It was the attitude in which he handled it. The same can be said for the umpire as well though.

[–]Honztastic 10 points11 points ago

Not another word about strikes and balls would be acceptable.

There's no way in hell anyone should be ever ejected for rooting on a teammate, even if they do it out of frustration.

And an umpire that thinks he can demand absolute silence from a player? That's a pretty big head.

[–]dreadredheadzedsdead 8 points9 points ago

Hah, I also hate Joe West. Turkey neck looking motherfucker.

[–]Honztastic 5 points6 points ago

More colossal asshole smug-fuck that can't ump for shit. I've literally watched him tank multiple games for the Rangers because of how bad he is.

[–]dreadredheadzedsdead 5 points6 points ago

For real, he's had a personal vendetta against the White Sox for years. Mark Buehrle in particular.

[–]luciddr34m3r 33 points34 points ago

Of course it matters that he was given warnings.

[–]Honztastic 30 points31 points ago

Not it isn't. A warning for a non-offense is unjustified and not a warning.

It's almost akin to warning a guy for doing practice swings in the on-deck circle, then throwing him out.

It's not a warnable action. You can yell and say shit all day long in baseball, until it's directed at an umpire. And even then you shouldn't be tossed for disagreeing with a pumped up little fucker that thinks he a God on a diamond.

[–]ATownStomp 4 points5 points ago

pumped up little fucker that thinks he a God on a diamond.

For all intents and purposes, the ref is a God on the diamond.

You've reffed for four years. You know how it goes. Sometimes people get outta hand. Sometimes you gotta lay down the law.

[–]indymothafuckinjones 6 points7 points ago

its incredibly important that he was given warnings--the fact that he ignored the ump is as much a reason for the ump to kick him out as any...if he just gives him warnings then does nothing when the player doesn't stop, players will know they can walk all over him

[–]mrgoldbe 10 points11 points ago

It's relevant that he was given warnings for badgering the ump, yes, if the ultimate offense is badgering the ump, but he was ultimately ejected for cheering on Ethier, which was not what he was previously warned for. So he technically didn't ignore the ump because he did actually stop complaining about balls and strikes. The ump over-reacted.

[–]luciddr34m3r 3 points4 points ago

When I was a kid playing sports, my dad taught me that there are two rules that are more important than any others.

  1. The referee is always right.

  2. When the referee is wrong, see rule 1.

If the ump. tells you to shut up, you listen. If you can't check your ego, you deserve to be kicked out.

[–]Shoeboxer 2 points3 points ago

If you have a good coach, he'll do the arguing for you.

[–]hdcs 7 points8 points ago

I figured he just called the ump a cocksucker.

[–]baseballjew4568 0 points1 point ago

This is exactly what I was thinking! It's almost as if the blue is waiting for Don to say something specific, hears it, and marks it with a "BOOM!"

[–]Water4Gold 16 points17 points ago

It doesn't matter where he's pointing; the umpire is ejecting the player from the game, which is an extremely negative event for a player during a game.

[–]DookieXplodr 0 points1 point ago

No way. Mattingly is the coach of the year, and he doesn't deserve to be in a downvote gif.

[–]WezVC 1 point2 points ago

I agree.

Then we should have one that counters this one, so that every time this one is posted the other one is also posted.

Then we should post them both everyday and it will be hilarious every time.

Shouldn't they find refs that aren't power tripping douchebags? I hate when refs make a big show out of calling fouls, ejecting people, etc. Makes it seem like they are playing to the crowd. Is there a good reason they do this? It seems like most professional referees/umpires do it.

[–]zeppelinfromled 23 points24 points ago

The refs put up with so much shit from the players and coaches as it is. If they didn't flex that muscle every once in a while, they would get walked all over.

[–]64oz_Slurprise 1 point2 points ago

Was it because he pointed in his like... personal space?

[–]baseballjew4568 16 points17 points ago

No, it was because his best player had just gotten ejected questionably and it is the manager's job to then get ejected immediately after.

Tim Tschida is one of the only umpires that makes me upset every time I see him. He made a horrible call on a phantom tag by Chuck Knoblauch on Jose Offerman in the 1999 ALCS Red Sox v Yankees. It resulted in a double play that killed a potential series changing rally.

He also refused to ask the other umpires for help in case he missed the fact that Knoblauch's glove was about a foot away from touching Offerman. Douche.

Wow, it's been 13 years and I'm still upset by this. Ok, it's out there on the internet. I feel a little better know.
