As umpires, we are expected to be perfect our first game and get better every time out thereafter.

"But the crowd was warned that anyone who made negative comments about the umpires would be arrested and charged with disorderly conduct."
I would have started yelling positive comments, things like youre the best umpire ive ever seen...

Unless someone was making physical threats to the ump, seems like he went a tad overboard.

I believe this was a directive from law enforcement, from what I've seen in the news. I live in Council Bluffs, and this has been getting some attention in the Omaha metro area.
