YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!!!! SCREW THIS UMP

We only got one quick review, but looked like Miley started before the batter ever was ready. Miley already got warned.

Sounds like a Wade Miley problem.

The rule is hitters eyes have to be up. Longoria's eyes were up.

Didn’t look like it, but maybe I didn't see it right.

Either way Longoria was clearly not ready and still getting set. Is the batter suppose to get completely set with his eyes closed looking at the dirt and then quickly look up?

This is the reality of the new rule. As the announcer said “The umpires discretion”…that’s always going to leave the door open for some fun times. Just like the NFL and what a catch is.

I’m not having fun. This isn’t fun. Ump scorecard will be interesting 

Isn’t there a Twitter account for that? This guy is having quite a rough night.

I've said it before... it was simpler when the batter held up his hand to get ready in the box.  Anytime you give the Ump a chance to make a subjective call, he will get it wrong eventually. 

"Rock, sometime, when the team is up against it, and the breaks are beating the boys, tell 'em to go out there with all they got and win just one for the Uecker. I don't know where I'll be then, Rock but I'll know about it; and I'll be happy."
