was this ump a bit harsh on A.J. Pierzynski?

here is the clip and article:

while that pitch is a ball, the one b4 that was a strike which wasnt called, and in a blowout, my guess is AJ was wondering what they have to do to get a strike called

i dont see much wrong with what AJ was doing, but it looks like the ump really showed him up!

it looked like AJ just wanted to forget about it and move on to the next pitch it looked like the ump wanted to start an argument and eventually toss Ozzie.

I'd like to know what was said by AJ

[Pharmcat]

you can clearly see ozzie say: you just showed him up

i think this ump should be fined for this, he seems out of line on this one

I'd like to know what was said by AJ

im pretty sure its balls and strikes...he held the glove, and then he delayed his throw back to the pitcher, he was just miffed i think....again, the pitch b4 that was a strike that shouldve been called

The umpire instigated that whole thing basically standing over him and pointing his finger at him. I hate that those douche bags can instigate and get away with it without punishment.
