People in the Rays game thread were saying he was being dramatic which is ridiculous.
He’s in his 60s and just because he’s wearing a face mask means nothing, that’s blunt force to the head. People in martial arts get knocked out all the time with head gear on.
Hope he’s alright.
Edit: For clarification, the face mask is important, I meant that the face mask isn’t going to prevent a concussion type injury, especially with a ball going at that speed.

Scary stuff. I hope this doesn’t impact his vision.

What a week for him jeez

Terrible umpire but I hope he’s ok. I’m assuming he’s not an awful human being, so being bad at his job doesn’t really mean he deserves to get hurt

As bad an umpire as he is, that shit can really mess you up long term. Never want to see it.
Fresh_Ostrich4034
these comments are really sick. he gets calls wrong, he doesnt murder people.

Hey look, I hate umpires who make shitty calls but I hope he’s ok, never want to see a guy leave the game for an injury.

Hope CB is okay. He may be a shitty umpire but that doesn’t mean I can’t feel for the guy.

We criticize and mock him a lot for his performance as an Umpire
But he’s also still a human, so anyone cheering or celebrating this happening is pretty shitty
He’s old, and even with a mask on that ball is still gonna hurt a lot hitting him in the head. Hopefully he’ll be alright

Nobody deserves to be hit in the face with a ball at 80+ mph. Hope he’s okay and gets a much needed stint on the IL.

Give this man a well deserved vacation

Geez that sound….hope he’s ok. No matter how you feel about his umpiring, nothing warrants harm coming to him.
