The umpire should clear the bat only if time permits. His plays come first. Nothing wrong with cash game umpires. I don't umpire for free myself, and I don't act that way. This guy sounded like a butt, and nearly maimed you with the bat, so I see your point. An umpire should also be there because he loves baseball. If you don't enjoy umpiring, you should find something else to do.
