| Why does that umpire always have to pick fights with our guys? First Bagline, then Borne, then Pitt? Maybe I under estimated a a buck fifty from his ass. But he sure does look great with his Chester Molester Mustache. I want a ride!

| you guys are ridiculous, everyone knows who you are talking about. This guy busted his ass to make himself into a healthier person and you have the nerve to rip on him.
That further solitifies that your team has absolutely no class and never will.

| We're happy for him. Doesn't change the fact that he was picking a fight with anybody that would give him the time of day. He's the one lacking some class in the situation.

| Last time I checked, dropping F-Bombs and challenging the players on the field after a petty conversation isn't classy.
I once thought he was one of the better umpires in the league, but after his tirade, I stand corrected. He is a complete asshole.

| So let me get this straight? A)You have NO clue what the rule is. B) You then argue a point in which if you have no factual basis. And the only criticism is that the guy lost weight???? So what your saying is that if he was still fat then you would have absolutely NOTHING to bitch about.
But you're right, he's the one that has no class...becuase he used a naughty word on a baseball diamond and lost weight.

| Pizzle- Right....he was simply "asking" a question. You make it sound so innocent. Just like when a player asks an umpire, "Where was that pitch?!" "That was a foul ball?!" "He was safe?!" C'mon, who are you kidding? Learn the rules of the game. It is YOUR responsibility to know the rules of the game you are playing. Ignorance is no excuse.
On a side note, the "umpire in question" doesn't seem to have any real "problems" with any team except the Tri City Sharks. So you have to ask yourself, "What is the variable in this question?"

| Hey Frog if you weren't there just shut your hole. You have no idea what the situation was. He wanted to pick a fight and that's what he did. I'm surprised our team held back enough to not get kicked out given how arragant and obnoxious the umpire was that night. His own partner said "I wish I could throw him out tonight."

| Since apparently every other player, coach and umpire knows the rules, why do you still see arguments between the umpires and players/coaches?
As an umpire, don't fuel the fire. What happened to ignoring the players? I guess the new trend is challenging them. If I wanted to see a show with umpires in it, I'd go watch Naked Gun.
Just because a player is wrong doesn't mean you chase him around the field. If that happened, the umpires should be running to their cars game after game.

| Well it appears that the old saying holds true. "Never argue with idiots. From a distance, people can't tell who is who."
Most arguements in baseball stem from a judgement that an umpire has made: safe/out, fair/foul, strike/ball, inplay/out of play.
When someone overslides the bag AT FIRST BASE and the player is arguing that he batter/runner be called out is not a question of judgement.
Now, if the player asks, "Hey ump, is oversliding the bag the same as making an attempt to advance to 2nd base?" Now that's a rational discussion we can have. Even though the answer is obvious.
But acting beligerant in saying the batter/runner be called out becuase he overslid the bag is not the way to "ask a question" to an umpire.
Ever wonder why not a lot of umpires don't like the Tri City Sharks? And you guys have had several "run-ins" with umpires. It's because you haven't yet caught on how to interact with them and ask questions without trying to show-up the umpire. It's something smokin referred to as "class."
I think it is your team that is in the market for a clue.

| Frogtowner, you really should get better information before making generalizations about our team. Our first baseman simply asked for clarification on a play at first. The runner stumbled over the bag, fell into fair territory and off the bag, and he tagged him. He believed it should have been an out. He just asked for a ruling and wasn't out of line. The umpire, however, immediately became defensive and started blowing up at him. In fact, he dropped numerous "f bombs" all over the place. Our shortstop, who may have the calmest demeanor of anyone in the league, then walked over to just ask our player to let it go. The umpire then started barking at him. Our pitcher then tried to do the same. Again, the umpire started in on him. Our guys were just trying to appease the situation. If anyone was out of line, it was the umpire, as he continued the juvenile discussion for the remainder of the game (about 5 innings).

And the Shark like most umpires too.
Just not the "beligerant" ones.

| Hey "WeBeatYouAgain" if I am nothing what does that say about you? How many hits did your team have against me in 4 innings when we played? The answer is the same amount of games you have beaten us on the field this year. Zero. I really am enjoying watching you guys argue with the Metro umpires. Thats probably a smart move with the playoff coming up. Please continue!!

| Hey Cliff... good thing we threw our #4 starter against you clowns. Last time I checked, he didn't pitch for a month.
I agree, in the end, it's the score that matters. We haven't beat you on the field yet this year. But when it really counts, you guys won't have a chance.
I miss Cheers.

I love you all.
