There is no way DiMuro could have seen the ball fall out of the glove with that guy in the way.
All of that said, I love the way amateur umpires take pleasure in berating a professional umpire. Maybe it's because DiMuro made it and you didn't? Or maybe you think that you can do better? Be careful how you answer that because when you look in the mirror, you see an AMATEUR staring back at you..... because that is what you are! Try and remember that! |
I feel for DiMuro -- he knew he couldn't stop moving because of the scenario where the guy falls in the stands. Why he didn't ask to see the ball is beyond me, but I take no pleasure in watch a MLB screw up. That's for the idiots at Deadspin to do, not someone who considers himself an umpire.
