He was not mad at the umpire, he was upset because Domino's put him on hold.

You step out, the zone is wide open, he has taken my frame of reference away. He steps back so now he has no look at the zone either. The pitch in question was not a bad pitch.

Because of Ortiz's actions in standing tall for pitch #4 (strike 1), the top of his strike zone increased in height significantly.

 

Pitch #3 (Ball 3): Top of strike zone was 3.77 feet vertical.

Pitch #4 (Strike 1): Top of strike zone was 4.06 feet vertical.

Pitch #5 (Strike 2): Top of strike zone was 3.85 feet vertical.

Pitch #6 (Strike 3): Top of strike zone was 3.85 feet vertical.

 

Pitch #4 was associated with a pz value of 4.032, which means that had Ortiz remained in his lower-oriented stance and not stood up during the delivery, the pitch would have indeed been out of his strike zone; because he changed to a higher-oriented stance, the pitch was located below his midpoint, and accordingly, was correctly ruled a strike.

 

Whatever, but that pitch wasn't a strike in any league, well maybe LL.

Never mind definitive proof that it was indeed a strike.

Facts are of no concern to HHLA. 

 

Ortiz is a great hitter but an effing crybaby.  17 years, my ass.

:ranton:  And somehow MLB manages to do a great disservice to it's attempts to "hold players accountable" and "preserve the game" and all the crap they talk about, especially with the PED enforcement.  People who "may have" done PED's according to some other guy who ratted to save himself are getting suspended for a whole year (not that I disagree at all, just saying it's mostly circumstantial at this point), they're looking to get A-Rod not because he used PED's but he broke his contract by lying I think, but the guy who damages stadium property on TV in a fit of rage gets nothing in addition to the rest of the day off?  :rantoff:

MONYBALL!

Will more people watch this guy because of this-YES!

“I went to fight one time and a hockey game broke out"

 

After the strike in 1994 baseball languished until McGuire and Sosa slugged it out in 1998 juiced to the MAX.

A player goes ballistic like this on the field and coches, teammates grab him and push him away, but in the dugout nobody does anything?  I've never understood how players go crazy like this in the dugout and destroy stuff, and the manager and coaches and others just sit and watch it and don't do anything to stop it!

A manager should be able to have the presence to shut it down by voice. I did it a couple month ago where two guys, neither knew me, were getting ready to go to blows. One grabbed a 2x4, the other a steel pipe. I crossed to the area and shut it down without them or me throwing a blow. A teammate certainly has the physical ability to subdue him.
