MLB 2015 August Ejections

[@nicholasfox966]

Do announcers get their money's worth whenever they say "Well, he's getting his money's worth"?

[@rival3825]

We need more videos of the actual Convo between ump and manager like Terry collins

[@DeviltoGeorgia34]

I'm convinced his legal name is GregGibson TheHomePlateUmpire.

[@coltsjason]

there is 2 separate Gibsons Tripp and Greg

[@Chukmeister]

Boom I’m a wizard

[@linwoodfaulk3900]

Lol

[@jerryking45]

That’s his vanity plates

[@lucienshapiro4691]

It’s useless to argue a replay decision cuz your beef ain’t with him it’s with the replay crew in NY

[@justinhill7224]

Love Lloyd McClendon. Wish he was still a coach

[@leifopstad2972]

Apparently the Braves color announcer REALLY hates Doug Eddings

[@lambert581]

I've heard some fans want strike 3 calls to be reviewed like check swings

[@bentheswitchsportsfan06]

Anybody hear the stadium playing "bull&*@#" during the reds-pirates clip?

[@brianwitherby1958]

cervelli should have been run too going after multiple umpires for that long

[@ts.elliot5870]

Donaldson is adorable!

[@danbaranowski]

4:31-6:16 KC vs. TOR 25:47-27:30 WSH vs. SF 35:47-37:10 CLE vs. NYY 40:44-41:43 STL vs. SD 42:44-46:34 TEX vs. DET 48:56-51:24 NYM vs. PHI (SIT DOWN!!!)/SD vs. WSH 53:30-54:48 BOS vs. NYM

[@kurtbarrett6785]

Holy crapalini!... After watching a marathon of these videos, I have to wonder if there's some rule that the announcer absitively posilutely must use the term "get his money's worth" every single god damn friggin time there's an ejection...

[@elfler16]

Me: Don’t say it, don’t say it, don’t sa- Announcer: He’ll get his money’s worth *GOD DAMN IT*

[@OrsilloFanClub]

😂

[@leifopstad2972]

Where's the creativity?

[@OrsilloFanClub]

Other ways to say his money’s worth: He’s paying house money, he’s getting his 2 cents

[@josephwingate1767]

I dont agree with the you can't come out after a review. I'm not saying arguing the results of the replay but I feel both managers deserve an explanation. I also don't agree with umpires being aloud to put their hands on a player.

[@Foxhound3857]

If the Umpires don't want players toughing them, they should not be allowed to touch players, especially in the COVID era.

[@lscales6131]

Other than to push a player away from another umpire to stop them from getting an automatic suspension when have you seen an umpire touch a player or coach? Like maybe 3 times

[@Genman510]

I’m not a major baseball fan but has a umpire ever reversed his ejection of a player?

[@ColinBVHSHill]

No

[@deew_knird_reeb_ekomS]

That is not and never has been a thing, my friend. Once you're tossed, you're tossed.

[@powerrangersexplained]

I remember that Toronto vs KC day, Jim Wolf 100% was in the wrong for not ejecting the pitcher in the Donaldson AB. MLB should have disciplined that entire crew for that nonsense.

[@MichaelTerndrup]

Why

[@deew_knird_reeb_ekomS]

For what

[@SSantmyre94]

How did that Donaldson at bat end? It got cut off?

[@icculus19]

Grounded out

[@ZachAdams926]

With an MVP award

[@windwhipped5]

The bullpen saw it..they said it hit the ground by the gestures..

[@rachelnew9131]

this is why mlb umps should watch the ball and not the catchers glove

[@workingclassrunner]

A lot of umpires also position themselves poorly before the pitch, so they get a poor angle of the ball crossing the plate often times. I'm surprised this isn't worked on more in umpiring school or the minors. Pat Hoberg on the other hand is one of the few umpires who positions himself well to see the pitch, and go figure he's probably the most accurate home plate umpire in MLB.

[@Foxhound3857]

Why was there such a protest by Melancon? Seemed pretty clear to me that he plunked the batter intentionally. That ball was up and in.

[@direcorbie]

you are not going to deliberately hit a batter in the 9th inning to bring the tying run up to the plate. That would be foolish.

[@deew_knird_reeb_ekomS]

@@direcorbie If you're a dumbass, then yeah you would.

[@kylepeikert8508]

DJ Reyborn doesn’t know how to be professional

[@mcaacollegefootball]

if you’re going to criticize an umpire at least spell his name right

[@StellarWishGaming2002]

Why did the umpire signal safe in the Joe Maddon clip circa 11:45?

[@lscales6131]

He was telling him what NY office said “they called him safe” is what he was saying. Then Maddon came out to argue to call and got ejected.

[@lambert581]

I wonder if a manager ripped up the lineup card & threw in the umpire's face

[@nicholasmedovich8691]

Remember George Brett?? He punched the umpire after he was called out for having Pine tar too close to the trademark of the bat

[@austinlindsay7854]

Man the Blue Jays had some of the biggest whiners in baseball all on one team.

[@Logo800]

Apparently the Angel's are called the blue jays now!

[@10-3leader]

First thing Cervelli needs to say to the umpire at 9:20 is "Don't touch me." That's the kind of thing that makes angry players angrier and makes them go after multiple umpires. Gary Cederstrom at 40:00 gets it right.

[@russellbrooker2122]

In that scenairo he was protecting his partner

[@10-3leader]

@@russellbrooker2122 Agreed, but you can do that without raising hands to the player. In the end, controlling the player is not the responsibility of the umpire, but rather his manager.

[@linwoodfaulk3900]

The umpires need to focus on the game and not on what the players/coaches and managers are saying in the dugout

[@socialumpire]

I'm convinced that the commentators just love making excuses for the players and make them the victim and the umpire is just soooo wrong!

[@MichaelTerndrup]

Well we go to watch the player not the umpires

[@socialumpire]

@@MichaelTerndrup that’s absolutely fine no one is disputing that! As a matter of fact on average about 6 people a game show up for the “3rd team”. Which isn’t the problem. The problem is you can be a commentator for 30 years like dummy Hawk and still get obstruction vs inference wrong! Rule books are only $20 people pick one up!!!

[@MichaelTerndrup]

@@socialumpire again commentator and player know the rules you know who don’t umpires and guess out of everyone there who get paid no Matter what the umpires

[@socialumpire]

@@MichaelTerndrup you can’t be serious?! So you’re telling me that umpires don’t know the rules? 4 officials on the field who usually have a combined 100 years of experience and knowledge don’t know the rules and know less than the commentators or players…? Man GTFOH 🗣️ If the players know the rules so well tell them Trey Turner to stay out of the runners lane will you 🤡 Oh and tell me what rules umpires don’t know. And make sure you get it right!

[@rachelnew9131]

and I also add umps line up wrong behind home plate when calling balls and strikes

[@lscales6131]

They got there for a reason. It’s called the slot mechanic and they can see most pitches that way. Most umpires get around 98-96% of calls correct. They are human and will make errors.

[@justinhill7224]

The BS of slamming your bat or helmet in frustration and getting kicked out for it is annoying. The ump can't determine for certain if the batter is frustrated with the ump or themselves.

[@TheSports_Fanatic]

15:40 oh god the memes…..

[@jchizzle15]

48:41 Trevor Plouffe sighting

[@cfrac22]

If only we could eject Rob Manfred for the stupidity that has become Major League Baseball ⚾.

[@elarson312]

Umpires should throw the announcers out.

[@lscales6131]

Exactly. I hate announcers that think they know the rules or how to umpire better than the umpires. Like that non catch in center field “I think he’s got a point” the next second “oh well it’s on the ground there probably.” Gthoh!!!

[@URAWESOME94]

They certainly could, but that would be almost impossible to accomplish in a timely fashion.

[@allaneisner4729]

Why should I believe these homer announcers over the umpires?

[@eddieerickson3348]

Donaldson is a cancer in any clubhouse

[@leifopstad2972]

Rockies color announcer just needs to stop complaining. No wonder his team is irrelevant

[@jeffreybate1548]

Get moving or get suspended!

[@angelsterling5135]

What sup

[@keyabethomas3785]

That's bad attitude and every baseball player and Manager could be ejected!!!!!

[@treybrown1568]

Was I the only one who hears someone else singing along at the 8:24 mark??

[@ts.elliot5870]

The ballpark is playing a tape with someone singing. I can't make out the song.

[@lt3228]

I ask again, Why is it okay for umpires to put their hands on players?

[@jasonbradham2193]

They'd get threw to the ground with me,first warning,second knock out punch

[@CaptainCardsworth]

There's a famous Jim Leyland ejection where the home plate umpire put hish hand on the back of Magglio Ordonez to sort of nudge him along off the field which prompted Leyland to come screaming out of the dugout. The broadcasters made this same point. "If you dont want players touching you then you shouldnt be touching players."

[@brandongray7744]

If an umpire lays their hands on a player,then the players should be able to lay their hands on the umpire. Ive seen some videos where the umpire deserved to get punched in the mouth.

[@russellbrooker2122]

He was protecting his partner in the first scenairo

[@MichaelTerndrup]

When you are the owner you can do what you want

[@keyabethomas4342]

The umpire should have known better than anyone and they should’ve been fired immediately!!!! The Mets should be telling commissioner Rob man fried about this one too because they are going to be fired immediately!!!!

[@mcaacollegefootball]

lmao so you’re saying if you make one mistake in your job you should get fired, nice logic

[@ts.elliot5870]

It's nearly impossible to fire and ump. They have a very strong union.

[@tonicopm]

Very bad edition at 49:20...

[@onlythewise1]

but- head refs

[@jeffreybate1548]

If you text/det pay attention to the umpire, don't yap or your! miss who's ejected!

[@samanthabyrne4145]

I’m British and love love love baseball, but your umpires love to get into the mix and destroy the game, they wind the players up knowing full well they are going to throw them out, what’s that all about.

[@deew_knird_reeb_ekomS]

The players wind themselves up.

[@j.r.puffinmaster73]

CC acting like a punk. But I agree about that Astros guy intentionally pitching behind him.

[@JF-lo5bf]

CC wasn't being a punk, he was sticking up for his teammate

[@j.r.puffinmaster73]

@@JF-lo5bf I agree on the intent. But he can't go out there and hurt his team. If he's got to stick up for his teammates, do it in a way that's not going to get him in trouble

[@angelsterling5135]

Okay

[@angelsterling5135]

You need Jesus

[@MichaelTerndrup]

@@j.r.puffinmaster73 so be a coward

[@keyabethomas4342]

The umpire needs to be fired immediately because that inappropriate behavior is unacceptable and they should be removed immediately from Major League Baseball for violating their rules of conduct!!!!!! Find somebody else who is responsible for forcible termination!!!!! That’s stupid!!!!! They are all going to get in trouble for this behavior!!!!!

[@deew_knird_reeb_ekomS]

Here's an idea: become an umpire yourself and show us how it's done.

[@keyabethomas3785]

Another fighting could give you an ejection because I'm going to tell you that all the complaining you have any problems and The players and Managers are subject to be suspended and fined!!!!!!

[@Teddybeardb85]

Umpires on power trips😀

[@randy2812]

All these players who are now coaches are a joke.

[@ts.elliot5870]

That's a pretty big generalization Sir. Almost all of the managers have played at some point in their lives. Most of them are pretty good. Some teams are more resources than others.

[@matthewogle6585]

umpire sould stop steeping for the umpire I tlacking let him tlack you dont need step in

[@justinhill7224]

Screw NY, let the replay be decided on the field by the umpires who are there to make the call on field.

[@justinhill7224]

Most oversensitive men in sports... umpires. OMG he said bad words to me and called me names. Words can't hurt anything but your feelings.
