The umpire Refused to call strikes and it continued until our catcher, pitcher, and team emotionally decompensated. Is there anything our coach could have done to address what this umpire was doing?

Yeah yeah. It was all the umps. Rinse repeat.

Make no mistake, the plate umpire was atrocious and pretty much equally bad for both teams, in my opinion anyway.

The difference was that texas players did a better job taking advantage of the extra opportunities they got at the plate than our players did. The gapper to left center in the 5th that caused the epic (and necessary) meltdown from our bench is a good example. Add in some pretty egregious Aggie errors in the field, and it's a recipe for disaster.

Was the plate ump yesterday the same guy from Friday night's TxState game? His zone was crazy tight, too. I was sitting among the State players' parents and we all were talking about how small the zone seemed.

You're a sip.


You don't get an opinion.

Go away.

It's REALLY sad and pathetic that he spends so much time here.

Must have naked pics of staph- they happily let him be a cancer to this site that has led to me and others cancel premium and not go back. Hope it's worth it!

lots and lots of mistakes and mental errors.

Embarrassing, but not surprising they get help from the umpire.
