Jesus Christ.

Of course I can help with this since it happened to me and you, apparently, know about it.

Four things happened as a result that didn't happen in the video:

(1) - (3) I ejected the catcher, pitcher, and manager, and
(4) I forfeited the game when the manager wouldn't leave.

People that would intentionally throw at an umpire -- calling them rats would be an insult to rats.

This happened 3 years ago. I've moved on. So has the sorry excuse of a league.

Know specifically, no, it isn't like it isn't hinted at in several other forums. So what's your take on this PU being thumped? Accidental or purposeful?

I've never been the victim of an intentional thumping.
