I hope the ump said "It will improve with you gone" as he tossed him.  The least a bad ump can do is have a good come back.

Agreed! I don’t know how capable the new guy was of doing that, but the good ones would know what to say.

One other thing—a lot of fans think all the player has to do is say “the magic word” and he’s gone, the implication being that that word is “fūck”. That’s probably only partially true—it really depends on the context. Managers and players yell “that’s fūcking horseshīt, man” at umpires practically every game and get away with that. It’s when the manager or player directs it at the umpire, as in, “you’re a fūcking horseshīt umpire”, or even, “you suck at your job”, that he gets run out of the game.

Apparently, this guy does this quite often. The 2nd catch here looks like he doesn't care about being injured. Watch out for the wall;

Those are incredible catches...but don't give Greene or Meadows any ideas!

That third catch is in the conversation for greatest catch on video in history.

That second catch, the way he slammed into that wall with his gloved wrist: isn't that how Junior broke his wrist?

This might be my favorite and he was so nonchalant about it.

That 2nd catch into the wall? That will end a career, in a hurry. There was a really good CF, I think for the WSox, who was always slamming into walls. The guy was always hurt.

Adam Engel. Remember him well. Saw a couple homer robbers from him.

I was thinking of Pete Reiser.  I was just a little bit off.  Not even a White Sock.

Kenta Maeda is getting shelled in aaa. 5 games, 16 IP, 21 ER, 2.313 WHIP. Some of that is him making adjustments, but he is likely pitching his final professional games. Time to hang it up

[papalawrence]

Twins got swept by the surging Astros, and KC just got swept at home by the A's. Cleveland is down 5-0 today. Central is slumping hard

It's going to be fun when Chapman returns from his injury in a couple of weeks.
