According to Phil they were out of contention before first pitch yesterday. 

 

Better than being out of contention before pitchers and catchers landed for spring training...

So if you foul a ball off your foot, or get jammed and mess up your hand, do you get a few extra seconds to recover?  Or are you being counted out while you're hopping around on one foot?

I believe the umpire has discretion. But I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of teams send out their trainer a lot more often just to ensure that the clock does not run.

EXTREMELY bad look for Anthony Rendon. Hopefully he catches a large fine and suspension for this. No matter what the fan said to him (and after this, he’s probably right), you simply cannot do that kinda crap. What a loser.

You grabbing somebody like that is not the equivalent of them call you a b****. If Rendon had said something to a security guard or whoever, about the guy, then, depending on what he did say, he maybe could've been ejected and banned from the stadium. But once Rendon grabbed him...

 

I like Rendon, but this was unwarranted. Especially if that's all the guy said.

Feels like the inverse of that time someone threw popcorn at Russell Westbrook and people were like "he had the right to kill that fan on sight." I'm sure a good time was had by all and everyone should move on.

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫

7 hours ago, who do you think said:

> mouthy fatso yells insults at player then gets approached and intimidated by that player

 

oh no that's horrible

He wasn’t approached, he was grabbed by him, pulled down and then swung at. That’s assault

CB Buckner should be terminated.  From his job, and from life.  How the hell are umpires rated as bad as him allowed to continue to call games?  It was nearly as bad as the guy from the college game... but at least 3 or 4 times, and always one sided.  Even Rangers pitchers were laughing out loud and giving the Philies the 🤷‍♂️sign, because they knew it was ridiculous.

 

Many umpires are cowards, sissies, and small-dicked over-compensating jerkoffs who never have to answer for their performance and want to be the star of a game that they were never good enough to play.  Everyone makes mistakes, but when it's consistent, they should be removed from the games - and the individualized strike zone is something that should never have ever been tolerated, but we now have the ability to replace these ballless pricks with technology - do it.

Oliver Marmol agrees.

No argument that he's a bad ump, but calling for him to be terminated from life, while obviously hyperbole (I think), still isn't a great look. You're more creative than that.
