Cabrera gets tossed mid at-bat with bases loaded

[Winged_Wheel88]

For mildly protesting balls and strikes. He must have said "yo momma" or something. Fairchild ejected the best hitter in the game on an 0-2 count with bases fucking loaded IN Detroit.

Fairchild can go fuck himself. Miggy wasn't showing the ump up.

EDIT: Philly gets out of the inning unscathed.

You have to understand that the umpires are bigger than the game itself or that's what they think. I feel all umpires should be replaced by robots. We have now the worst umpires around and they should be fined for the bad calls they make. Let's face it, they are really BAD.

Uncaring sarcasm duly noted.

Karma got Francis going around the bases.

Chad Fairchild leads the league in ejections this year with 8.

Guy clearly has a sensitive ego.

If you say the magic word you are gone. Also major league players know you can't argue balls and strikes. Granted umpires need to be thicker skinned but that's the way it goes.

Priceless

How does he get tossed for that and David Ortiz doesn't until he smashes a bat against the bullpen's telephone?

umps 0...Philly 3...Daytwah 11...so what was it the umps did EXACTLY?

At the time, Philadelphia was up 1-0 when Angel Hernandez went loco in the head. Then over the next couple of innings Philadelphia increased their lead to 3-0.

Interestingly, all of Detroit's runs are unearned.

Anyway, I hope the Dodgers and the Pirates get Chad Fairchild as an umpire for some important games. If either of you say a peep of how awful he is, get ready for a truckload of crow. The guy is pathetic.

hhhmmmm...it appears that Miggy getting tossed WASN"T the end of the world.

Good question. Ortiz should have been gone for flipping the bat.

 

[RobBase]

Hey Iffy make sure to double post in multiple threads so you get all the attention you need buddy.

Caps button is easier than keeping shift down.

An umpire giving a player so leeway and and not being a robot... but you are right it should be both ways.

 

[DodgerLou80]

I hope Fairchild is out sick with the clap instead of umping any Dodger games. Who's worse? Fairchild or dickhead Hernandez.

I am waiting for the out-rage when Don Kelly is tossed for arguing balls and strikes.



(oops....sorry....different rules for different players?)

 

[Iffster]

YEAH! Those umpires are just like the teachers I had in school. They can kick you out and get away with it. They have no accountability. I'd make it that if you cuss out a teacher in front of the class, you get to have the day off. It is about time these controllers are brought down.

You might have to wait a long time to test your absurd theory. Like Cabby, Don Kelly doesn't have a tendency to show up umpires either. Maybe next time Chad Fairchild umps a Tigers game?

Haha, oh wow, you're hilarious.
