August 4, 201213 yr My umpire contact says that any umpire that has graduated from the professional school would do this.

Baseball umps seem to have thinner skin than officials in any other sport. Football refs consistently get yelled at and berated (especially the guys on the sideline) and they just take it.
August 4, 201213 yr I think this was all a set up. The video I saw had the guy saying he threw him out how cool. Who videos in between innings of a minor league baseball game? The guy was interviewed and said he'd do it again. He was an unpaid intern. He had nothing to lose. I think he thought this would get him some attention and maybe he could make talk show rounds or something.

Umps are so uptight now a days I think this is funny and would have loved to have been in attendance for this game.
August 16, 201213 yr Dear David Stern- esteemed Commissioner of the NBA, Kindly empower your league's officiating crews to eject PA announcers at their discretion. Warmest Regards
