[Poll] What Has Been The Worst Umpire Call Thus Far In The 2012 MLB Season?
I don’t know if there’s a reasonable explanation why the umpiring has been terrible during the first half of the 2012 MLB season but one thing is for certain — it stinks!
We want you to help us decide, what has been the worst umpire call of the 2012 season thus far?
Dewayne Wise’s (non)Catch
This one is definitely the freshest in our minds and every time I watch the video and see the clear angle that umpire Mike DiMuro had on the non(catch) that New York Yankee outfielder Dewayne Wise pretended to make, I don’t understand how he missed it. (This is my vote)
Tim Welke’s Giant Area Call
I understand that umpire Tim Welke was in a bad position to see Todd Helton’s foot in relation to the bag but a good rule of thumb would be to assume that a player is away from the base when you can almost shake their hand.
The Strikeout featuring/No Strikes
5 pitches. 1 of them MAY be a strike. Hey, its the bottom of the 9th and an Irish Boston Bar is waiting…
Your turn to decide. Pick the worst umpire call of the year below and leave us a comment telling us why.
