If I ever played in such a thing, I would only use that guy for tracking the ejections (which is great if you like watching those videos since you can subscribe to his RSS feed).

The ejection of the Marlins' manager earlier this week was a *perfect* example of this. The pitch was low, low, low, and he claimed it "skimmed the knee as it passed the front edge of the plate, the call was correct."
Dude has no freaking clue about umpiring and probably fantasizes about being a Pitch f/x operator.
