You've seen bad calls and you've seen egotistical umpires, but you've probably never seen them combine like they did on Friday. Fortunately, there were consequences.
In the ninth inning of a game between Mississippi Valley State and New Orleans, outfielder Davon Mims went to the plate as Mississippi Valley State's final out. After two pitches, things got weird.
With the count even at 1-1, New Orleans pitcher Trey Usey appeared to miss low with a breaking ball. And by"miss low," we mean the pitch looked closer to Mims' ankles than his knees. Home plate umpire Reggie Drummer saw it differently, though, calling the pitch a strike and triggering an irate reaction from Mims.
Your normal umpire show would see Drummer eject Mims as he was jumping up and down and pointing with his bat, but the ump opted to go about things a bit differently. He set up for the next pitch with the count 1-2 and watched Usey miss badly with a down-and-away breaking ball.This is a division 1 baseball game... Can't even call it a terrible call. Umpire made it personal.
