  • @drbill28 correct yet if it does hit the black part of the plate it ususally grabs some what part of the plate if its close enough that for sure.

  • in MLB there is no paint.. if there is the plate is put in wrong you fuck tart

  • You are NOT serious!! Terrible!!

  • that kid must be laughing at this bafoon thats why they couldnt show his face

  • If you press 2 you'll learn that this ump like to itch the catchers head while umping.

  • That was creepy when he looked at the kid in the end...

  • he is very noisy

  • @jrteel25 i agree, i always lean towards the inside corner slightly as an ump, and yea, i use armpit height to knee height, uniform letters would be stupid, they're all in different spots for different teams
