Good God, this crew is pathetic

Is it difficult to find competent umpires ?

Ridiculous. It’s too high. Too low

Caught too much of the plate

Wtf

Home plate ump should never work another game and should be ashamed to cash this game check. fricking clown

You would think technology would do away with umps making bad calls. But then again, they wouldn't be able to manipulate it if that was the case.

Auto balls and strikes can’t come soon enough to all levels of baseball.

I wonder if any of them was part of the crew that couldn’t see that Jones homerun on replay a few games ago when he should have had 3 homers in a game. Today was bad but never in my life have I seen a ball go over fence,hit a railing,come back into the field,and then call it not a homerun. If that had been in Omaha people would have thrown beer cans on field

I don't like it when umpires are not consistent with balls and strikes, but I don't think people have any idea what they're asking for with the robot ump idea. I don't think it's going to be near as enjoyable as people think it'll be.

Robot umps would call that letter high strike, which is supposed to exist, but almost never is called... every time. Pitchers are going to live up there, and not many hitters can get on top of that. That's going to get real annoying watching that pitch get called a strike, because it shouldn't be. That's why umps don't call it, because I think they're fully aware of how unrealistic it is to expect hitters to go after that.

The only way I'll even entertain the idea of robot umps, is if they agree to lower the top of the strike zone.
