re: Bryce Harper got tossed for being out of the batter's box

I know he technically walked to the box, but if you can't see it was a "ok, mr ump, here you go.......I'm in the box, there's my toe, I'm in the box", then I can't help you.

Harper too made a great argument after the game that the ump, as he was yelling at Harper to get in the box, did not have his mask on and that would have resulted in an equipment violation.. I guess it still could. Seriously that ump needs to be put in his place by the league real quick.

He shouldnt need "help".
If the ump doesnt take his mask off and start jawing with the dugout then none of this happens. Ump was about as unprofessional as you could be.

And the ump would have taken soooooo long to put his mask back on. That again is an argument my daughter would use against me.

EXACTLY...Harper was in the box when all of this went down. If you can't see this then I can't help you

Boom, end of argument

And if you think that's an acceptable reason to be thrown out of a game you probably have the same little man syndrome as the umpire.

So why couldn't he have just got in the box while the ump was putting his magic mask back on, instead of arguing that's where he was?
It's all dumb, really. 1 game out of 162. Moving on.

So is lying about whether or not Harper attempted to get back in the box

I'd hate to see the game you guys want where the stars are allowed to do and say whatever in spite of the umps, the people hired to control the game and move it along.
It's obvious it wasn't just one thing that got Harper ejected. The ump probably got too hot in the head as well, but demz the rules: he wears the crown. Push back is going to happen. All of this "Hudson needs to be put in his place" talk is laughable. Unless he's a repeat offender, then get over it.

So dumb, I swear.
Look, I tell my daughter to put her dirty clothes away, and after some push back, she grabs them, stomps to the hamper, stares me down, and slams them in the general area. Yes, she technically did what I asked her to, but it won't fly.
It seems kind of dumb in an adult baseball game, but you have to know you're playing with fire when mocking the ump like that. He can't let that stand.
Again, that's not the one thing that got him ejected, but that's my point when I say he didn't necessarily comply with the ump.

He tried to and got tossed for it.

See edit.
Again, if this ump has a reputation like Hernandez, then I'll think differently of this. Sucks that Harper got tossed, but it's not a huge deal.

Sic boy, you have been owned in this thread. You hate Harper. We get it.
Posted on 5/21/15 at 9:57 am to tigerclaws15
The more accurate thread title would be "Harper got tossed for showing up umpire after umpire acted like an idiot"

I can get on board with this.
Both carry blame.
Posted on 5/21/15 at 9:58 am to MOT
We get that you hate Harper as well. Harper did not act like an idiot. We have an umpire that wanted to be the star of the show so he acts like a big baby and gets into it with one of the biggest stars of the game
