I'd call the batter a rat, but I can't find a font big enough.

The coach ought to toss him off the team for that.

The batter should get a serious sanction - unless of course the PU was a scab!!!

Another honor graduate of the Delmon Young Charm School. Mr Walker needs that bat stuck up his *****.

...just an amateur opinion, though.

I know for a fact that Nelson Graham isn't one of those SCAB MiLB umpires that can be found working some college/high school games.

I wonder how one of The Perfect 220 would have handled it?

I have heard that the Arkansas Drama program is very highly rated.

Let's be honest, the plate umpire couldn't have handled it any better. He got the call right on the pitch and didn't over-react to the bad acting job by the player. And when the player jabbed the bat towards him, he ejected properly.

I understand the coach protecting the player, but there are just some ejections that shouldn't be argued very strongly and this is one of them.

With this behavior, it would appear that Walker has a promising career as a coach after his playing days.

His elbow hurts so bad he was barely able to gently set his helmet and bat down in the dugout.

If you turn the volume up and listen very carefully (and watch as well), as soon as Walker begins the acting job, the PU points right back to the batter's box and you can faintly hear the PU say..."No, No, No..." or something to that effect....
