AMEN AMEN AMEN!!! ONE MILLION PERCENT. umps who ask for help on calls that have no business getting help are screwing the rest of us.
For me, as soon as I told him the ball was live an she didn't immediately tuck tail and head back to his box, he's gonna ride the lightening. Him maybe not realizing it was a live ball is the only benefit of doubt he should have got. Anything else past that would have been an ejection with me.
Ask Bobby Cox if your previous actions mean something on the field. You don't get any rope when you have been dumped two days in a row. And I can't believe tournament rules would have even allowed this jack hole back in the complex, let alone on the field.
