Game Date: 06-09-2025

Team: Red Sox/Tampa Bay

Complaint: In extra innings, at critical moments, the umpire called a marginal pitch a ball, against the red sox pitching. Half inning later, again at a critical moment, the ump called the exact same pitch a strike, in favor of Tampa Bay pitching. As soon as the Red Sox manager stepped onto the field, he was immediately ejected. I know it's a tough game to call accurately at all times. But at critical moments, some of these pitches HAVE to be reviewable. Or the umpires need to be investigated for their financial involvment in the game, when they appear to have a clear bias.

Team: Phillies at Guardians

Complaint: Ump being fooled by framing but apparently only by the Guardians catcher. Several strikes that were outside the zone to righties, so bad that even the ESPN announcers agree. Crazy how you didn't want your best ump on a nationally televised game

Game Date: 04-13-2025

Team: Orioles vs Blue Jays

Complaint: The home plate umpire, John Bacon, #70 , is absolutely atrocious. His biased against the orioles is evident. He called two 3rd strikes on the same batter that were FULL ball lengths out of the zone, threw the manager out for absolutely nothing, and let his over inflated ego affect the game. The MLBs lack of accountability for umpiring and their blown calls affecting games, is making the game borderline unwatchable. When will they face suspension or consequences for BLATANT bias and terrible officiating?! That man should never be behind a MLB plate until he checks his ego and pride.
