Husband, dad, coach, ump and ref. My wife and two girls are the best things that ever happened to me.

@CoachMarcusHill Ok….so you don’t want them to “insert themselves into the game” but you want them to take control. What does that look like for you?

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@CoachMarcusHill If you are having issues with player safety or not knowing the rules then you need to talk to the assigner. Otherwise umpires are “inserting themselves in the game” because sportsmanship and coach conduct are at an all-time low.

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@CoachMarcusHill You say that coaches are ok with one or two missed bang bang plays…not what I see every weekend. Coaches are questioning ball/strike in the top of the first inning. What you call an “ump show” is usually taking control early so it doesn’t turn into a shitshow later 1/2

@annamlulis You have this completely wrong you bigoted moron.

@OutOfTheVines MLB wants to do what the NFL and NBA has done for years…turn college baseball into their unpaid minor league. My guess is only AA and AAA would survive.

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@GeraldoRivera You are an absolute idiot.

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@BornOnThirdCubs Thought you were talking potential All Stars…my bad

@kevinnbass You are a moron

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@jprokc @TerryMoran Show proof. That’s it…no straw man, no steel men…proof.

@Fantavious9 ABS has nothing to do with check swings.

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@doug_mix @Isley23 I understand that’s the call…just don’t see it as malicious. It’s a high impact collision but the first baseman is trying to make a play. A tough one all the way around.

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@doug_mix @Isley23 I disagree…protecting yourself while going to field the ball isn’t malicious contact for me. The contact doesn’t happen if the batter/runner doesn’t interfere. I understand MC overrules all, but I don’t see it here. Just my opinion.

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@laralogan This is very simple: present the evidence or go away.

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@awfulannouncing Dana White is a moron

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@MiLBEjections @MudHens Denver Dangerfield might be the greatest umpire name ever!

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@GlennClarkRadio If you don’t like the rule thats fine, but don’t blame the umpires for applying the rule as currently written.

[Chris Lake @clake1214]

@MVJUDGE99 Then Gunnar needs to learn the rules.
