Which is what Charlie Reiliford, Joe "Illegal Pitch" West, Bill "ItÂ’s my opinion that he should have to stop, just like he has to with runners on base" Miller and others are doing. This is what led to the last blow-up between MLB and the umps, and it will come again. And this time, the umps won't have Rich Garcia to "protect" them.
(1) I think you mean Richie Phillips, not Rich Garcia, and (2) he didn't really protect his umpires all that well, in hindsight.
