UMPIRE REVOLUTION!
Seriously, these guys are the best of the best.
I was wondering if anybody wanted to comment on how baseball officials have a much different style because baseball is such a different game than basketball, baseball, football? Does anyone think that style of baseball at the MLB level compared to MiLB, NCAA, or FED is a bit more laid back, and as a result, umpires behave much differently?
And if so, wouldn't that mean that an experienced amateur ball official can't really understand what umpiring in MLB is like, and therefore, aren't qualified to critique style and demeanor? The calls are the calls, but it seems lots of criticism from this forum is centered around ways in which things are dealt with, appearance, or mechanics.
