Disgrace to You, Your Team, and the Sport

I hope that you have watched this video in its entirety. I laughed in the beginning. I really didn't have a problem with the batter trying to sell that he was hit by the pitch. People exaggerate taking a charge in basketball, getting tripped in soccer, and running into the kicker in football. I get this, it's strategy. It's pushing the limits of the referees. Although it might not be the pretty part of sports, it is a part none the less.

I don’t get ticked off until this punk goes off on the umpire. He made the right call. Know that you got caught. Put your lid back on, step into the chalk box, and try to knock that ball right back up through the pitchers head. I honestly was waiting for the pitcher to unload a 4 seam right by the batters ear hole, but realized to wasn’t realistic as the score of the game was close. As the clip shows up, the batter gets K'd hard swiffing air on high cheese. He then proceeds to cuss out the umpire. What a flipping prick. How low to you have to get, to fake an injury to the limit the trainer has to come out and realize your acting up a skit. How ridiculous is his action to attack the one guy that really had nothing to do with the play. He simple called strike 3 when you whiffed on some high heat, and called a ball when your styling elbow wrap wasn't glazed. Tip your cap to the pitcher for sitting you down, suck up your pride, and go grab some Gatorade, and a dip. Don’t try to belittle the umpire. I hope your coach looked at tape of the whole act you created, and beat your butt elbow until you bleed through the wrap. I pray that batter apologized to the coach for making the coach look like an idiot on tv. He did what any good manager would do, stick up for his player. However, his player just simply had a stick up his rear.

This is truly sad to see. I hope this is the low valley of this collegiate baseball player’s career. Unfortunately all I can see is him turning around and verbally assaulting the umpire for letting the pitcher throw him out at first in his next at bat from his swinging bunt.

In a nut shell....Go home kid, your a disgrace to the game, and your coach and teammates have no reason to stick up for you. I hope this nationally televised baseball game took that angry stick you have up your rear, and you were able to digest that humble pie. Now go study "MEAT".
