Watching live online right now(9.11 pm Central time) What in the name of all that is holy is the Home Plate umpire WEARING?

PS Scarred for life after seeing Male Synchronized diving....

It has to ba a battery pack and transmitter for the camera in her face mask. They just had a shot from it.

That is one of the ugliest damn "blue" uniforms I've ever seen a crossing guard....er, umpire wear.

Oh I was thinking we had a police officer behind the plate. I didn't realize it was a crossing guard. And the moment I turn it on I see a blown call at first base.

Throw coming from 3B side of field and BU1 is making the call from foul territory?

Another call from foul territory. This time the ball coming from 2B

Yeah I think it was a bunt up the line and he moved into foul ground. I think it was in the fourth. And my goodness those uniforms are horrible. I looks like rainbow colored trim with a blueish-green shirt. Or is that greenish-blue? And is it ISF between inning mechanics to have all four umpires in the infield on the foul lines?

Just had an out-safe-**** call at 2B. Ouch.

Don't mind the between innings positioning, I prefer it.

BU2 in the C with a runner in 2B. Get a much better view from the other side on a pick-off

My video started buffering on a replay of a pitch. Wow, you would think with the second base umpire on the left field side of 2B (which I really don't prefer), you can see a runner on second leaving early. He kinda missed one.

And like he knows what we're thinking, he's back on the other side with a runner on second. Come on blue, be consistent.

With a runner on 1st, I agree. With a runner on 2nd, not so much as I prefer the umpire to approach a possible play from that position from the open side. Just a preference and since ASA does not recognize 4-umpire mechanics, we cannot be wrong!

I've had enough for tonight.

Not working for me, which sucks!

Darn, some perfectly crappy foreign umpires to make fun of and I dont even get to.

This blows.

I just missed the Time Out sitch
 

My son runs in the kitchen...Dad, she Yelled TIME TIME...ALLRIGHT PEOPLE, TIME IS NOT CALLED UNTIL I SAY SO!

I guess a batter stepped out and the pitcher hesitated....ALLRIGHT PEOPLE is a new one on me...:D

They must be on a very strict time down there same happened an inning before where PU stepped out 3rd base side and pointed at either the Canadian catcher or Taiwan batter and said YOU CAN"T DO THAT. LETS GO.

Does anybody know why the Taiwan batter was called out in the bottom of the 1st when she tried to bunt with the R1 on 2nd?

Was watching the game on Canadian tv broadcast and had to turn off the volume, the announcer and commentator were awful. :(
