If you’ve been paying attention at all to the MLB season thus far then you know the umpires have been really, really bad.
Last night in the Bronx it got even worse and now it’s time for Rob Manfred or somebody within the game with any kind of power to send a message to these umps and start leveling some punishments because some of these guys in blue are embarrassing the game.
What happened in last night’s Blue Jays-Yankees game was ridiculous. The umps, led by crew chief Alfonso Marquez, decided to eject Toronto reliever Yimi Garcia after he hit Josh Donaldson on an 0-1 pitch in a tie game in the sixth inning. During that ejection, Blue Jays pitching coach Pete Walker got tossed, too.
