Umpire Gone Way Wrong
No reason for this to happen. I can't begin to understand this "umpire" and his thought process.
Don't get me wrong; I don't condone what the manager did either. But it doesn't excuse the "umpire" for what he did. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...rial&hpt=hp_t2

Apparently baseball umpires are treated a bit differently in the far east.
evident here and more videos here I hear that the coach from the OP has a history of getting physical with umpires including punching at least one (3rd hand knowledge). If true, and given this "different" game, how can anyone blame BK from preventing a second assault (he didn't choke him, he only held him off by the neck). You can't judge this incident with USA baseball expectations...I'd buy him a beer. |

Agree with the suspension, he earned it.
I think he missed an opportunity to dig a little deeper though. From 1:33-1:52, he should have told the new head coach, "that's a visit".
