Hope Jimpiano see this post.

Regards,
I agree with Morgan 100%.

The crew and Wolf made many mistakes.

1. Did Hudson line his cap with aluminum foil on Sat. to keep HP ump from reading his mind? Is there anyone in the room that doesn't think Hudson threw at Sorianos head on purpose?

2. If Wolf 'knew it was coming' and 'was waiting for it' then why wasn't a pregame warning issued? Maybe he'd rather toss than prevent. and if he'd done his job and issued the pregame warning he probably would have prevented Rentaria's hand injury and Fontenot's busted nose. Which is the whole purpose of the umpires inserting themselves into this aspect of the game isn't it?

Obviously Lilly forgot to wear the foil. It's good to know Wolf has a career as a telepathic when the umpire gig goes away.

3. I wonder what Wolf says when he's not mic'ed? If you're going to screw the pooch at least keep your mouth shut.
Game management 101, for all you new umpires. Don't be making editorial remarks after a controversial and/or stupid call.

4. Forearm shivers to the nose are ok now? This crew needs to get on the same page. Even if it's the wrong page they all need to be on it.


Morgan and his partner saw the inconsistencies in this crews call and were right to point them out.
