HOLY STRIKEOUT SCANDAL, BATMAN! The Padres just got ROBBED in broad daylight! This controversial call isn't just a game-ender, it's a SEASON-KILLER! I'm telling you, the umps just became Public Enemy #1 in San Diego. The Cubs sneak away with the W, but this ain't over. Expect FIREWORKS and FINES as MLB reviews this DISASTER!

No, they didn't. It's a challenge system, like basketball, with the machine taking the place of umpires because who needs people? We have machines. Someday, all of the baseball players will be replaced, too. Can't have brown people making money in America.

Seems like a distraction of some kind, to announce this right now.

The worst umpire in MLB is finally gone. My bet is he was told by MLB to take a walk.

Im Gegensatz zum #VereinigtenKönigreich werden die #Cricket #Umpires hier in #Deutschland #gleichBezahlt, unabhängig vom Geschlecht oder vom Spiel, das sie leiten.

Aber wie im #UK bezahlen wir sie alle viel zu wenig.

#Umpires are not always my favorite, but that thing when the #catcher takes a ball off his body and the ump decides it's a good time to brush dirt off the plate. 😍

This detail where umpire James Hoye notes Domingo German's hand was "the stickiest hand I've ever felt" mustn't be the kind of thing juvenile umpires dream of one day doing growing up on whatever their home planet is.

You imagine that dream reel is filled with mostly the cool stuff: calling strikes for balls in the dirt, throwing All Stars out of games, botching safe/out calls at first, etc.

Exactly what the substance was remains up for debate. Speaking after the
Yankees' 6-3 win over the Blue Jays, German insisted that he had used only
the rosin bag, which is available at the back of the mound. Crew chief James
Hoye disputed that in the strongest terms, saying it was "definitely not
rosin," and that "this was sticky, as in my fingers had a hard time coming off
his palm."

Can’t wait for the #robot #umpires calling balls and strikes in #mlb. Atrocious calls to start the #Mariners game by the current human versions.
