Blue Jays hitting coach being sent to deliver the lineup card just so he could tell the umps how bad they were and get tossed before the first pitch was hilarious
Baez not swinging at outside slider is an oddity
The FTX logo on the umpires' jackets makes me leary about their calls.
Anytime I watch the Richard bleir balking video, I get mad for him. 😂 That’s unreal. Kinda felt like the ump was on a power trip. I mean, the last one, he literally stopped before going into his delivery. What else is he supposed to do?
I’ve seen people set for even less time, and they don’t get called.
Best part of that video is all the umpires wearing the FTX patch.
Jomboy Media did an outstanding breakdown of the three Bleier balks, all called by Tumpane. From his breakdown I would be willing to indict Tumpane on bias charges, not that I ever thought Tumpane was a good umpire in the first place. He's not Angel Hernandez, C. B. Bucknor, or Ron Kulpa, but he's certainly in the list of 10 worst umpires in MLB.
Tumpaine is an absolute POS. He's the kind of guy that desperately wanted to be a cop so he could push people around but couldn't cut it in the Academy.
@@arinerm1331 Oh I didn't know Jomboy talked about this, I'll check it out
21:52 when the team you put money on is down in the eighth, sometimes you've gotta take matters into your own hands
20:20 Hindsight is 20/20. Harold Baines once went up to the plate in a slump just to watch the ball. He took every pitch in the at bat, and then broke out of the slump on the next appearance.
0:56 that throw was absolutely nuts
So was the catch!
Player gets hit in the balls and the commentators say that’s amazing
Those balk calls were wild. He set
genuine thank you for putting in the chapters. It’s def tedious but it’s game-changing
20:53 I was umpiring a local game once and the pitcher was a bit wild, walked a couple guys in the first, and then started balking by not coming set. After I called the third balk (and had the third argument), the pitcher began doing an exaggerated set while glaring at me. In his attempt to mock me, he actually developed a rhythm and was pretty much dominant the rest of the game.
It’s everybody being unbothered during the fire alarm for me🤣
I loved Dylan Cease practically having to cajole the umpires into calling the balk. None of them seemed to be paying attention to the ball falling.
Two months later, Craig Kimbrel does the exact same thing in the playoffs! He pretty much has to yell at the umpires to balk the runner over after practically spiking the ball into the mound.
‘Gunned down at the plate on an oopsie’
Always love baseball in the morning. Like a my morning coffee.
It's like the Peacock game on a Saturday.
@@mehere8299 Sunday man. Sunday.
But yes, it is like that.
At 2:18 The botched throw to the shortstop to bait the runner on 3rd to go home would be such a good designed play. I’m sure it’s been done before but that’s the first I’ve seen it.
In all my days have never seen the Margot interference-type call @11:14 and how it does not happen more often with today's big swingers is amazing. Thanks for showing me something new. Your prize:
Subbed
Not just one inning, one at bat. Absolutely ridiculous that was
These are great, I hadn't seen most of these before. Great edit!
Bro hit it into the fuccin buffet guacamole 🤣🤣
Love these videos. Always a treat.
Absolutely love these, thank you !
Is it odd that my Orioles are finally...almost...kind of... finished rebuilding since 1984? 🤷♂️
I'm a simple man. EXE-Edits uploads, I stop what I'm doing to watch.
I remember watching that Twins game on TV. Pretty weird double hit.
Merrifield dropping the ball for a double play is EXACTLY why the infield fly rule exists.
That's a horrendous non-call. It was clearly catch able with ordinary effort instead he drops back for no reason other than to let it drop and hope they don't call the obvious IF.
@@bigpoppa1234It gets blurry. You will likely never see infield fly called on a hit like that. It’s not a line drive, but it’s certainly not a fly ball. Just a little blooper behind the bag
@@brendonbuffaloe8830 I agree that that’s correct the way the rule is written. I think the rule needs to be changed because that is absolutely unfair to the runners.
@@bigpoppa1234the part of the rule is as Long as you don't make an intentional drop or it doesn't hit your glove it's not illegal
I love how wacky this game can be
I was at the Seattle game when the fire alarm went off. There was no actual fire; the steam from one concession stand set the fire alarm off. That also meant the elevators got shut down while it got situated. In next game the, a fire alarm sound effect goes off, but it is for Munoz Los Bomberados.
9:55 This is the "fourth out" rule that is every umpire's nightmare. And yes, it is in the book.
The inning ended on the third out, the tag of the runner going into third. Thus, everything that happened before that tag stands. Since the runner from third crossed the plate before the runner from second was tagged, his run scores.
What needed to happen was an appeal before the team left the field. The third baseman needed to say to the umpire, "the runner going home left early." He would be out #4 and would not score.
Since he didn't verbalize the appeal to the umpire, simply touching the base wasn't enough (as the inning was already over). And since the team had left the field, they couldn't go back and undo it (had one player stayed on the field, he could have).
The other way the run could have been avoided would be if the third baseman had tagged the base first instead of the runner (which would have made the runner going home the third out instead).
It's a crazy rule...
15:58 the mister and the missus decided it'd be nice to go see a home game (they have season tickets)
5:07 Ahmed over here playin' golf
20:14 To be fair, Harper was running a 102 fever and did not want to be put in the game.
A balk is when the pitcher doesn’t come to a complete pause
By chance, will you ever do a video of things breaking in MLB? (Cameras, screens, etc?)
That Bleier scene is absolutely ridiculous. Ump was just trying to make a point the second and third times
It’s funny how empty the A’s games are.
I subbed and I’m checking out the merch
THANK YOU!!! YOU’RE THE BEST
These are fire
Some of these clips have me major lost in the sauce
In the Nats-Pirates game, the run shouldn't count. There was one out, Bell catches it for second out, and since the runner at third who heads home never tags up, he should be out once the third baseman touches the bag
He tagged the other guy before stepping on base and the runner had crossed the plate by then
@@brodylarkins705 Maybe that does matter, but it sure feels like it shouldn't. Both runners were wrong to be off their bases when the ball was caught - I don't see why the runner on 3rd should be bailed out just because the third out was recorded on a tag. That trailing runner was still forced to go back to second. He was tagged before he got there, but the force was still in effect.
@@camicawber not to mention, nationals had wanted to appeal the play but were unable to because of the players having left the field. I remember this because I listen to that game live.
@@brodylarkins705I am not sure that matters. It is not a timing play
@@kyleevans2367 I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what it is
oh my god I've spent twenty minutes looking up the actual definition of a balk and apparently the 1st base ump said from his POV, Bleier didn't "come to a complete stop before delivering to the plate" which I also had to look up because ??? he barely moves between putting his glove up and throwing the ball? what part of the was "deceitful"?? NONE of those were balks imo
Balks are one of those rules that isn't enforced to the letter, much like how the strike zone is "supposed" to be from the shoulders to the knees of a batter's stance, but in practice it only really goes up to the belt. During a game, balks are rarely called unless the continuous motion is egregious and undeniable, and none of Bleier's deliveries were egregious. This was a case of an umpire looking to call balks, and that's exactly what he did
By the rule, all three were absolutely balks. His hands kept moving down the entire time in all three.
Now, especially the last one, was a really mickey-mouse call, but that also occurred at a time when MLB was cracking down on the leeway umpires were giving pitchers with regards to balls.
My money is that the umpire called it because, if he calls you out on it twice and you don't come to a clear and complete stop you are getting called on it no matter how ticky-tack it could be.
You can argue the spirit of the rule vs the definition of the rule, but one of them is pretty clear. Once the hands are set--as in once the pitcher puts the ball in the glove--it can ONLY come out of the glove as a part of a throwing motion, either as a pitch or a throw to a base. You can very clearly see in every one of calls, the ball loses contact with the glove briefly during his throwing motion. You can watch as there's initial contact while he's set, then the ball loses contact with his glove as he picks up his leg, then he puts the ball BACK in the glove once his knee reaches full height, THEN he throws the pitch. It's easier to see when the camera is behind him. I wonder what it looks like from the batter's point of view.
The most beautiful game in the world
7:27-7:56 "The Blooper that never Ends." Best Description of that! Betts deserves a Grammy!! 10:45 They Umpires need A Rule Book with them! 13:51 First the NFL has Blind Referees and Umpires who get in the way.
I like how this just showed up very early
Bro if I had three balks called on me in the same game after three pitches I would be livid and probably all up in that first base umpires faces giving a piece of my mind
I can't figure out how any of those 3 are balks.
I thought the 3rd balk in a row in the last clip was the only questionable one
9:16 and that's why we have the Infield Fly Rule
4:08 that looks like a scene from some corny baseball movie😂
Of course Stripling is shown giving up a homer for the Giants. His whole tenure in SF has been nightmarish.
8:37 is insane
I don’t even like baseball but these edits show me the best parts. Cheers!
10:37 Had the makings of a triple play if there hadn't already been 1 out.
Did the umps end up allowing the run to score? If so, how? The runner on third didn't tag up.
@@tryste_mxWithout looking up the box score, it appears they should have.
The runner from third was not out at the time the defender stepped on third because play was dead at the time the third out occurred. This means an appeal play had to be completed to get the runner from third ruled out, but the defensive team was already leaving the field so they couldn't do it.
/Not tagging up is basically equivalent to not touching a base in this scenario
Wait, you can catch multiple balls in a day by staying in your own section instead of running over kids and bounding all over the stadium like a tool? Who knew?
It helps when the attendance record is recorded as 'several'.
Zack Hample lives rent free in your head calm down he wasn’t even in the video 💀💀
@@vuhzz He's not gonna be your friend you can stop holding water for him
@@greenday61892 I never said he was. You’re just hating on another man for doing what he wants. Live your own life stop worrying abt what other people do when it doesn’t affect you in the slightest. You just idiotic asf
Those FTX logos have aged worse than the Covid clips.
Those Bleier "balks" arent balks. Maybe the first one, but that's a stretch. Anything after the first one is that first base umpire being biased and inserting himself into the game.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't all fielders must have their gloves on during play?
That first one is just unlucky and unfortunate
Good one
Nice vid
Bleier balks on almost every delivery he makes as a pro. He never stops his hands, he's always shifting them downwards and never comes completely set on a single pitch he got balked for. It's the kind of movement that's very obvious as a first base umpire because his hands are shifting down the logo on the front of his jersey and revealing more of it until he starts his motion.
It was obvious to me, even on the one where the announcers are saying "Tumpane's making a point here." No, he did balk on that one as well.
Can someone explain to me why that was a balk? Was it because he wasn’t set for long enough or was it something else that I don’t know about
There are a few different rules for a balk, but one of them is that a pitcher's hand basically CANNOT MOVE once it's set in the glove, unless it's to throw either as a pitch or to throw someone out. Because he sets with the ball against the glove, then his hand COMES OUT enough that the ball loses contact with the glove and then touches the glove again (I played the video back at .5 speed so it was clearer to see), that's technically a balk. And it happens every single time the umpire calls it.
Ight I'm confused. I feel like I know baseball really well but how the heck did the pirates score a run @11:00? Runner on 3rd clearly did not tag up, instead running straight home. Yes he touched home before the runner on 2nd was tagged out but it's a moot point considering he didn't tag up.
Some other channel did an explanation on it.
The problem is the runner on second was tagged out for the final out of the inning, meaning the inning is over so the runner going home couldn't be put out for a "fourth" out. Until that runner going home is declared out, he's treated as a normal runner who can score.
The defense would have to make an appeal at third to show that they are challenging that he never tagged up. Normally this would be done before the next pitch, but because the inning was over there was no next pitch so the way they have to make that appeal is a little more convoluted and no one knew how to exactly, and before the players could figure it out the time ran out on the window of when they were allowed to make the appeal.
It was very much a BS "loophole".
@@lucromel Rather than patching up rule loopholes, MLB decided to kill the shift and the DH. Gotta love front office priorities
@lucromel that makes sense. He essentially put himself in a pickle and, until tagged out, the runner from 3rd was a free runner to score. Had the ball been thrown to 2B, or an appeal made in a timely manner, no run would have been scored. Such a nuanced rule and likely not something even the offense knew they were enacting. Got caught with their hands in the cookie jar only to be let off with a warning lol
An appeal needed to be made before the team left the field. If they appealed to the umpire saying he left too soon and tagged the base, he would have been out #4 and would not have scored. But since he scored before the third out, and the team left the field without appealing, the run counts.
@20:14 I don't get what Bryce Harper was doing. Can someone please explain?
Someone else commented that he had a fever of 102 that day and didn't want to play. I don't know how true that is but it would make sense
The announcers made everything funny
11:15 Wait, there's actually a rule that can be used against hitters with wild backswings making contact with the catcher/umpire? Why is this not called every time a catcher gets clobbered?!
[9:55 - 11:13] I don't know how MLB has it written in the rule book, but it needs to "word-for-word" be written like this...
"An inning CANNOT END on a RUN SCORED!!"
This is the "fourth out" rule that is every umpire's nightmare. And yes, it is in the book.
The inning ended on the third out, the tag of the runner going into third. Thus, everything that happened before that tag stands. Since the runner from third crossed the plate before the runner from second was tagged, his run scores. (and contrary to what you say, the inning didn't end on the run scored. It ended on the tag).
What needed to happen was an appeal before the team left the field. The third baseman needed to say to the umpire, "the runner going home left early." He would be out #4 and would not score.
Since he didn't verbalize the appeal to the umpire, simply touching the base wasn't enough (as the inning was already over). And since the team had left the field, they couldn't go back and undo it (had one player stayed on the field, he could have).
The other way the run could have been avoided would be if the third baseman had tagged the base first instead of the runner (which would have made the runner going home the third out instead).
It's a crazy rule...
8:54 Correction: The runner at first was safe, it was not a double play. I checked the original broadcast and the inning continued after this.
I just want to know what an umpire was doing in the baseline. A place that an umpire should be…..never.
9:16 Anytime I see a player intentionally not catch a ball just so that a double play can happen, it just seems wrong.
using the rules to your advantage is wrong?
@@maybeaspider3456thats assuming the rules are balanced and fair which isnt to the baserunners
If he intentionally drops the ball--as in, touches it and lets it fall--it's a dead ball, batter is out, runners hold their bases. He never touched the ball.
The other question is whether that should have been called an infield fly. Runners on first and second (or bases loaded) and less than two outs, ball hit where an infielder could catch it with ordinary effort. But the infield fly rule does not apply to line drives, and that was right on the border. Usually the infield fly is only called on a pop up and that wasn't popped high enough.
Ouch that is not were the ball goes
Vladdy and his gloves 😂
Fat tub
19:42 Can someone explain to me why pitchers are intentionally balking?
They believe the runner on 2nd base is looking into the signs the catcher is throwing and tipping the next pitch to the batter.
That Junis throw makes me laugh EVERY SINGLE time. What's he doing? He saw a ghost i think. There's no play to be made and he just chucks the ball as far as he can. Oh man lmao what a dumbass
None of those were balks
9:55 Can someone tell me why this wasn't a triple play?
There was 1 out to begin with. Because he stepped on 3rd and tagged the runner that would have been a triple play, but because there was 1 out to begin with.
@@connorwalsh7945I guess it would be helpful to pay attention to that 😂. Thanks
@@dnjj1845 yeah np lol, lotta clips coming at you fast so I get it
It still could have been one had there been an appeal on the runner at third going home. In other words, the baseman couldn't just touch the base as the inning was already over when he did so. And since the run had already scored before the inning ended, the run counts. But if the third baseman, when he touched the base, said to the umpire, "the runner left too soon", that runner would have been a fourth out and would not have scored.
As soon as the team left the field, that option was gone.
13:17 explanation?
The new anti-shift rule.
There must be two infielders on each side of second base.
As the player was straddling the base he violated that rule.
Bro you forgot Ron Kulpa as the Cubs MVP a couple days ago
Who’s Mikey lol “Mikey stepped on the bat”; you meant Javi lol
"Mike, he stepped on the bat." 😑
Hi
I've always been surprised that "intentionally letting a ball fall to get a double play" wasn't considered an unwritten rule that would get you beaned... not saying I'm against it, but for all the petty, inconsequential things that would get your head grazed, that one being "smart baseball" surprised me...
Usually the infield fly rule or intentional drop rule is called. Super rare to see a case like in this video where it isn't clearly either.
9:20 is the umps being dummies. That's a clear infield fly ball.
The ump who looks like a serial killer, u all know who i mean, is a problem and needs to be fired immediately. U cannot let people do whatever they want whenever they want and just say tough im the ump i can do what i want. Its a disgrace
I’m Mad At The Umps That Balked Bleier Twice Come On It’s In His Delivery
First
2:51 Canadian people will see this as a hate act
Jesus can save you from whatever you have done. Repent.
If I was a coach and a phone fell out of my players pocket on the base path, he would be pulled immediately and benched for a week. What the hell has happened to professional athletes? More worried about social media and how many chains they can fit around their necks than the game. They might as well be Kardashians at this point, thats how pathetic they're becoming.
Automatic dislike for confusing INT/OBS. No exceptions.
