Well now we need foul tip challenges apparently
Do the Umpires even care? Holy crap 2 atrocious calls on 1 play
Meh did look like a check swing. I feel the home plate ump just made the wrong hand sign. Muscle memory is a bitch.
This is just damn embarrassing.
It’s usually the double noise that tips them off. I don’t know what he thinks he heard or saw.
I might be wrong, but a foul tip literally doesn’t matter. Its still a live ball and treated the same way that a swinging strike is. Just acknowledging that it was tipped, but thats it.
That said, what made him think it was tipped?
holy moly me oh my
I love how confused the batter is
Umpires are like fucking cops lol 3rd base ump didn’t even want to call that shit.
Wow, mandatory hearing and vision checks needed for umpires
That is awful
What in tarnation
The real question here is, why is the signal « Dolla, Dolla bills… »?
I like the third base ump’s nod after calling the strike on the check swing. It’s like he’s acknowledging that was nowhere close to the bat lmao
« I don’t think he really came close to swinging either »
Sorry, but he’s wrong. MLB doesn’t define what counts as a swing or check swing. It only says « if the batter attempted to strike the ball. » Since a check swing is a stopped attempt and the calls are at ump’s discretion, they can (until testing is completed and hawk-eye is implemented along with the 45° rule) still call a strike regardless of where the bat was stopped
I didn’t hear a double noise, but if there were, it would be catcher’s interference and that is reviewable. Glad this call didn’t really hurt anyone.
the inverse happened in the Braves game last night…it makes no sense why foul tips are not able to be challenged…is there a legitimate reason?
Looks to me like John was supposed to point at the bat and call strike due to the failed check swing attempt but motioned the tip ball call instead. Same result, just a funny miscall
John Tumpane is one of the absolute worst and he thinks he is one of the best.
do they know we have replay?
How nice of the third base ump to bail out his idiot colleague with that check swing call…
