People don't cheer over umps getting hit on the arm a day later over a random miss at first.

That's where you missed the point. It wasn't a random miss at first. It wasn't even that we lost the game. We were losing big at that point. What fans are pissed at is that our coach, who is one of the classiest in the nation, was lied to, I think was baited, and now suspended for four games. I wish Sunday was televised as well. If you saw the reaction of the txst player on the last out, that would be worth a 4 game suspension. Tony was questioning a horrible call. God forbid he raise his voice or move his hands when the umpire he contacted willfully stood inches away from him while he was talking with the other umpire. A player, who is not supposed to argue, slammed his bat, threw his helmet, verbally abused the umpire with profanity and not a damn thing was done. Don Hudson should be relieved of his sunbelt patch and probably shouldn't be allowed to umpire ever again.

And as stated earlier, it was kind of a halfhearted cheer. One of those "karma's a bitch" cheers. The crowd didn't erupt.
