Hey Blue, the Stone Ambassador you refer to was a catcher for the University of Tennessee. I was within ear shot of this man all game and his only utterance was when you blew the infield fly situation. Firstly, having officiated for many years umpire crews usually have a signal to each other when an infield fly possibility exists. As umpire in chief, you the home plate ump, are to audibly declare infield fly, batter is out, runners advance at your own risk. Next time use your big boy voice and don't passively whisper like a little girl. The runner scored from third was correct, however, please offer your explanation for saying you had called time out with two runners occupying second base. BS on all of your whines as well. You choose to quote rules at your convenience but your knowledge seems quite limited as well. If you are the great college ump you declare why not position your field ump correctly. Shortstop side with runner on first base, really? If you were a real ball and strike man the mitt is the least of consequences in calling the zone. Get it, the zone. The balls relationship to the plate and the batter determines the zone. The mitt is merely for catching the ball.
Save all your condescending remarks for the next team your butcher. You were an embarrassment to the game and to others who wear blue. Umpires are paid to know and enforce the rules of the game without bias. In your case, your embarrasment led to Stone pitchers throwing through a donut while Alcoa got two hula hoops. Their fans aplolgized for your ineptitude. By the way it was really classy of you to run your mouth to the Stone assistanct coach after the game. How's that for a news flash?
Lastly, if you were such a great college ump did you get busted back to the minors? The real whiner is you and your classless attitude. Read it might be on film, I sure hope so. Sorry I have to steal your quote," Your whining is comical and your knowledge of what goes on in a game and on the field is brief at best."
