This UMP is a true hero

[Mebert]

This kid handled this better than most pros would.



Side note, this is obviously not MLB, so does this fit better in the general forum?

If I was batters coach, I'd have asked to see the pitchers birth certificate to see if the ump was his father. Hell, maybe even draw blood for a DNA test.

You only get to see where the catcher caught the first pitch. It looked about letters high. Maybe even a little lower. First one was a strike imo. Second and third pitches almost looked the same.

But seriously, that kid has the mannerisms of a pro. Little league is way different than when I played.

Fur sure the 1st could have been a strike, it was borderline. I do believe that if the kid waited for the call it would have been called a ball. The second one was pure pettiness by the ump.

It should go with out saying if you are going to get petty with a kid you have already lost.

First pitch while hard to tell due to the timing on the clip looked high and inside, 2nd pitch was outside and almost exactly in the same spot as the last pitch which was called a ball.
