    Dumbest Umpire Ever
    Greinke ejected after four pitches by the 1st base ump [Holbrook] for spiking the ball onto the ground after a runner was called safe @ 1st on a bang-bang play. Terrible umpiring. Ump should be suspended.

    Should have gottin his balls worth and thrown the ball at the ump instead of the ground, if that's all that's going to get ya tossed.

      You don't know shit about umpiring. Of course a player is gonna be ejected for showing up an umpire like that.

        Especially when you have pussy egomaniacs umping games like you see in the bigs. They think they're a part of the game. They want you to know them by name. Good umps should be like good offensive linemen -- invisible.

            Had you took Astros, you wouldn't even say a damn word. Typical no coincidences whining when things don't go his way

              So by your logic, anyone who ever breaks a bat over their knee in frustration for a called third strike should get tossed too because that is showing up the ump, right?

                    That was the right call. Players get tossed if they throw their helmets onto the field.

                    If you blame anybody, you blame Greinke. Very foolish on Grienkie's part.

                        The difference is that guys only do it when they swing and miss.

                            like i said, everyone on Mil can act like this why they lost but bottom line was they were paying for a ace (which Greinke is at miller) that is not a ace on the road..

                              I'm not saying Greinke isn't at fault or that he isn't totally unpredictable on the road. I'm just not seeing anything that warranted an immediate ejection there. Maybe something had already been said to him before that -- I don't know.

                                he means when you swing and miss and break your bat it is looked at as frustration at yourself, when you throw ball down like a little bitch because of a call you are showing the ump up...if i was ump i would have bitch slapped Greinke whiny ass

                                  So if a guy gets caught looking and breaks his bat in the dugout, he gets ejected?

                                        It was an overreaction. Simple as that. Umpire probably even wishes he could take it back. But... 'YOU'RE GONE... wait, nevermind' looks even worse.

                                                So you're going to argue it not because of the issue itself but because of your own personal ignorance. You should go into politics.

                                                    So you disrespect a guy because he has an illness. That makes you way more classy.

You believe in it, you are loyal to it, would defend it, and yet have no proof of it, other than that, at one point or another, you chose to believe in it. Self-hypnosis. What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

                                                        I'm convinced many of these people officiating games (mlb, nba, whatever) are frustrated players who were never quite good enough to make it as pros. Many of them also are convinced that the crowd is there to watch them.

                                                        Did Greinke fukk up? Sure, he did. But a good ump would have simply chewed his ass for all to see and allowed him to go back to the mound with his tail tucked between his legs.

                                                        I wasn't watching the game but I did see the video. And by Greinke's immediate reaction to getting the boot, I doubt he said anything disparaging to the ump; he just spiked the ball in the opposite direction after taking a few steps away from him, no less. Sure, it was unprofessional and the letter of the law warrants an ejection. However, good umps - those who actually take pride in being an ump and not a celebrity - should also factor in the spirit of the law.

                                                                An umpire in the Mets/Cubs game just rung a guy up to end the game on a pitch at least 5-6 inches off the corner. I'm guessing he did this because the previous 2 pitches were also 5-6 inches off the corner and the fans were crying about them being called balls.
