Crazy, at first I thought maybe it was Angel, maybe he had been fired without me knowing. But after watching it wasn't Angel , right? You were joking because the call was so bad and Angel is the worst, sort of like "Karen's". Obvious the ump had already decided the next pitch was being called a strike no matter what since the hitter "showed him up".

Watched once more, obviously umps shouldn't do that. But the pitch before didn't look like too bad of a call. The hitter did show him pretty badly for such a close pitch. Can't blame the ump for wanting payback

College ump suspended after egregious strike call ends game.​

The plate umpire who made an egregious third strike call to end a game between New Orleans and Mississippi Valley State on Friday night has been suspended indefinitely, the Southland Conference announced.
Mississippi Valley State left fielder Davon Mims was up with a 1-1 count with two outs in the ninth inning when plate umpire Reggie Drummer called two straight strikes on pitches outside the batter's box, the latter of which was clearly off the plate.
The game ended with New Orleans winning 7-3 and an enraged Mims trying to confront Drummer, who ignored him as he walked off the field.
"After a thorough review of the New Orleans and Mississippi Valley State baseball contest on March 10, 2023, the Southland Conference confirmed the home plate umpire's conduct and actions were deemed detrimental to the Conference and in violation of Section 3 Character and Conduct of the CCA Mechanics Manual for Baseball," the conference said in a statement Saturday.

Ump lost his cool. He should have waited for a pitch that was considered more borderline to ring him up on.

Curve was borderline strike, that last pitch no doubt Low and outside. Really thought the batter was going to hit the ump with bat, luckily catcher talked him off the cliff.
