Just get rid of them, and go to a tech option.
Take the human error facto out of the game.

Fully agree. It's time. Hell, it's been time.

Keep umps out there for human based decisions and control of course but balls and strikes and maybe even check swings can be handled via tech now.

Is tech perfect? No. But neither is human and at least tech can be improved over time and overruled if needed. Humans can't, or won't. And that kills me. I know why they protect the umps. They are an extension of themselves and The Brand. Still bothers me to no end. We can hem and haw about ump accountability to the masses. It will never, ever happen.

Now the NCAA issued a statement about the ejections. Both coaches are suspended a total of 3 games. The CWS championship and the first 2 games of the 2026 season.

You can't continue to argue balls, strikes, and half swings after being warned. Which both coaches allegedly did.


So the NCAA is supporting their umpire and he's not going to face any consequences. Unbelievable.

Other than gravity continuing to exist?

I umpired HS for 12 years and agree that technology would be good for strike calls, but you still need an umpire behind the plate to make other calls, such as fair/foul and safe/out, as well as handling administrative duties of pitching and batter changes, replacing out of play baseballs, putting the ball back into play, cleaning the plate, etc.

No one is disputing LSU pitching here. Arky got through it, had a lead and only needed 3 outs and weird things started happening. That is the point! LSU good, but things seem to happen to help them out.

Just curious, was the umpire in question on Trouble's naughty list?

No because he barely umps NCAA games. I immediately remembered how he umped in the MLB when I googled him.

He's on double secret probation.

Y'all wanna' hear something nuts? I was just reminded that LSU was on the cusp of being knocked out of their regional by Little Rock.

This is why I love baseball -- anyone can win or lose on any given day!

Arkie forcing the if necessary game would have been HUGE. LSU likely would have pitched Anderson which means that it's Eyanson, ???, Anderson on short rest vs Coastal in the finals.

F'ing pigs can't even fail right.

Lots of ifs. The game knows.
