College softball umpires Videos

Had her antics caused the defense to throw to third base, she wouldn't be laughing if she had been ejected.

Once the coach crosses the chalk line then comes back to argue, he needed to be ejected!

TOSS HIM AND MOVE ON WITH THE GAME!!!!!!! IT'S THAT SIMPLE!!!

It woulda been nice to know what happened

Move on. Play the game.

That was so funny. He couldn't even see over the catcher. I totally loved it :)

+ConkeyCrack I would hardly call that "too friendly." He's developing a respectful relationship, that's all. Tone was just about perfect, in my opinion.

+cedricmeallan Playing Three Blind Mice is pretty much a way of saying the Umps aren't making the right calls.

+Nicholas Northcott That just refers to the field. The Organ player is in one of the boxes, not on the playing surface.

+Nicholas Northcott The ump can eject people from the playing field... Which is why he can eject spectators or other people from the playing field who are not authorized to be on the playing field. He can't kick people out of the stadium.

+Steve Thomas He can't look it up. Didn't you hear the song? He's blind, like those mice.

That's copied from MLB's website but that's cool.

+Nicholas Northcott No, he can not., Nicholas.

+Steve Thomas (e) Each umpire has authority at his discretion to eject from the playing field (1) any person whose duties permit his presence on the field, such as ground crew members, ushers, photographers, newsmen, broadcasting crew members, etc., and (2) any spectator or other person not authorized to be on the playing field.

+Crooked Spine one more thing he absolutely is allowed to have a fan ejected if he feels threatened by them he can call over a team official and have the fan removed. Let's say for example Spine that a fan yells "I'm gonna fucking kill you ump and throws something at him" now most of the time ushers would eject the fan there anyway but If they don't the umpire can absolutely require that fan be removed before the game continues. Also fans are different then PA announcers and team officials. They are to remain neutral during the game that's their job. "Make better calls or don't be an ump" doesn't apply here. Now again speaking as an umpire would i have ejected the guy playing 3 blind mice maybe maybe not depends on the whole situation we don't know what happened before this. I might've just laughed it off but the umpire absolutely has the right to toss them if he wants. Look it up its in the rules. Hope that helps.

+Crooked Spine read the rulebook my friend the umpire has the right to eject anyone he sees fit. When the umpire steps on the field for the game he has complete authority and control over the game and its surroundings. "It's the minor leagues bro" isn't a relevant statement unfortunately. I understand why you'd say that and as former minor league ump myself trust me l ran into many PA announcers and others etc that are idiots and take things too far. Most of the time you let it go but there are extreme examples where you have to take action. The rules allow for an umpire to eject a PAAnnouncer or in this case the organist.

As the PA announcer you work for the league not the teams so you're supposed to be neutral

Why? He's not there to be a poster and can't just allow a PA announcer to shit on an umpire like that. And he has the right to eject anyone from the game if he feels necessary. That includes mascots, pa announcers etc. cry baby isn't the issue its about setting a presence that your not going to allow yourself to be treated a certain way.
