Sunday Night Baseball - Worst umpiring ever?
Posted: Mon Jun 11, 2007 12:49 am
Saturday in Soriano's first at bat gets drilled almost in the head. This was after his 3 HR night so clearly it was intentional.
Marquis could only go 1.2IP and was replaced by Sean Gallagher. In Gallagher's first ever ML at bat he gets drilled in the back. Yet no one gets ejected.
Now tonight Edgar gets drilled in the very first inning by Lilly and is immediately tossed.
There were no warnings before the game. Lilly gets booted, because the umpire "knew it was coming".
Edgar on first base steals 2nd going in hard and punches Cubs 2B Fontenot in the face. Nothing is done at all.
I haven't seen officiating this bad since the Wade treatment in the playoffs last year.
