Bryce Haprer ejected in the 1st inning today....

[KLAH316]

Arguing a check swing strike 3 with Hirshbeck......

The highlights showed Harper pretty demonstrative before the hook.

Not my umpire or crew but hurray! Seems like the last one was over a week ago.

Never showed what Harper did but it's clear Hirshbeck was just dying to throw him out.

[Lindsay]

Well, there's a first [inning] for everything...

[Thunderheads]

Didn't Harper throw his helmet?  Isn't that why he tossed him?

 

Did anyone hear how much of a stink Davey Johnson?

That's my CC on UEFL!

We don't want to hear about your personal problems!

[Umpire in Chief]

What a load of crap from the announcers. 

 

You have a struggling player who tosses his helmet no- brainer. Maybe it would have looked better if Bob had tossed him.

Hardy har har you two.

Hirschbeck was itching for a fight, Davidson didn't seem to be too concerned...Kind of dumb on Harper's part though as the pitch was a strike anyway.

[Thunderheads]

found this while looking for something else ............ JH's side of the story ..........

Two observations -

 

1.  At least Hirschbeck gave the third base coach a chance to go keep his player in the game.  I don't think he was dying to throw Harper out.

2.  Loved it when the announcer says "A guy 120' away throws him out."  Uh..last I checked bases are 90' apart and that doesn't even consider the fact that Hirschbeck was walking down the line toward the plate..

Really.. maybe you not to familiar with the Umpiring business..You as a batter cant stand there and throw up your arms after a called check swing... no way.. JH gave him a chance.. But young Bryce kept running his mouth.
