Norfolk Manager Gary Allenson is ejected after delaying the game in order to dispute a changed homerun call

I kinda feel for the coach - you’d think there would be at least one baseball up there. Imagine that sinking feeling as he looks around and can’t find one.

@dave0mary9 жыл бұрын
dave0mary Number one rule for an umpire: Don’t go looking for trouble. And that would be a needless provocation. Given the circumstances (very confusing area of the field), I likely wouldn’t have run him, unless he expressed his views inappropriately. I think the “bicycle rack” should be replaced with a solid wall. That way it’s much easier to see if the ball went behind the wall, or over the wall. Neither the umpires nor the coaches have zoom lenses to see.

An umpire will never call a manager “coach”, that’s a guaranteed rhubarb
@renodangle3 жыл бұрын
Here’s what should happen. Simply replace the “bicycle rack” with a solid wall, which will remove all doubt as to which side the ball landed on. This is a bit like some of the snow fences I used to have to deal with when umpiring. With a solid wall, if the ball goes over, you clearly see the ball disappear. Or you see it land in front. But when you have a wall like this, or a snow fence (which has all kinds of holes in it), it’s very difficult to tell whether the ball lands behind the wall, or lands in front, and bounces over it. Umpires don’t have zoom lenses in our eyes.

I don't know. My guess is it's a judgment call by the umps. But an ejected player, coach, or manager failing to leave the field within 3 or 4 minutes of the ejection creates a travesty of the game, which should be handled with additional penalties, up to & including forfeiture.

Yeah I’ve done div 2 college and only once did I have a coach come out and argue balls and strikes and then not leave almost right away after I ejected him. He was literally in my face yelling and spitting. I told him maybe after a 30 seconds of straight yelling and spitting in my face and me trying to walk away that I told him he had 10 seconds to get off the field. While he was still yelling at me telling me I don’t have the balls to make him leave I counted down when I hit 1 and he was still yelling at me I called the game. I told the other team they won and walked off with my partner. The next day I get a call from the league director apologizing for the incident, and telling me the coach has been suspended for 5 games. What shocked me the most is that the LD told me he protested the game bc I forfeited it. I was literally about to pull out the rule book and read off the rule that give me the power to do that and he stopped me and told me it was denied. I thanked him and I had the team 10 days later the coach was still suspended and never heard from him again.

That fucking metal fence bullshit should be a home run. That is so fucking stupid. There are no major league stadiums that have that shit playable. “Bike rack” it looks like a fence to keep fans back from reaching over but if that is part of the wall then it serves no purpose. Fans can reach over. They need to make anything over the padded wall is a home run. Or take that stupid “bike rack” down and make it simple.

I thought ground rules were discussed at home plate before the game between the home plate umpire and the managers. If the hit was ruled a ground rule double in the face of indisputable evidence (the ball being found behind the padding) after initially being called a home run, then so be it. The Norfolk coach wasted a ton of time walking to the outfield fence.

@samuricex Baseball fields are not uniform like the soccer pitch. Outfield fences can vary in height, at Boston's Fenway Park the left field fence is 37 feet high and in right field it drops to just 3 feet. Because of the unique features of various ballparks each field has its own set of ground rules, for example if a ball gets stuck in the ivy at Wrigley Field in Chicago the batter is awarded a double. At this park the ball must travel over the rail and the painted yellow line to be a home run.

Had the umpires stopped the runner and batter-runner at a two base award, then go out and rule the ball in play. They, the umpires, would have put the runner and the batter-runner in jeopardy of being put out. However, after letting the runner and the batter-runner score, then making their ruling of a ground rule double IS exactly what should have happened, regardless of what the two experts in the booth said.

Umpire should have said, "Well Gary, got a ball for me? Now go get a shower."
WEIGHTROOMMMMM
I watched the entire video and found the narrators' voice to be very soothing.
I landed iver the top of the padding, but guessing that since the top of the railing or fence out there has that yellow marking on the top of it, for the ball to be considered qa home run the ball would have had to go ove the top of that railing, so if correct, that should have been a Ground rule double right?????
Andrew Silva correct, which is why the call was changed. The ball would have to go over that fence for a homer
Excellently designed homer wall.
Why didnt the up start the game or start calling strikes?
this is super good quality
This is a pretty neat looking ballpark. Norfolk is AAA for the Orioles right?
Norfolk is Tampa Bays, Jennings plays for Tampa now.
Phillip Teixeira no its the orioles
That's what I thought. Thanks!
This is in Durham,nc. Bulls stadium.
All orioles stadiums are neat looking they either are modeled after oriole park or they are built as a major league stadium that holds 10000
Its the ninth too?? Dude is crazy
I wouldn't have had a tirade considering I would still have a 2 run lead! The manager is a greedy bastard!
The truth is: for this reason, there should not be any balls in the vicinity: The area should be cleaned and prepared prior to the game -- and it probably was.
@matmanxify i mean, look at how packed that stadium is! they must have had like 26 people watching the telecast!
"could he jog alil bit? We have a game to finish tonight" Wow, even the commentator almost fell asleep while watching baseball.
"Dang, I should have stuck one in my pocket before coming out and making a fool of myself!"
i just like how few people are in the stands
He actually made the baseball game slower.
Hit a dinger!
Wow, that's a really nice baseball stadium!!
I slowed it down and the ball was already there before the homerun.
I think the guy has a crush on Desmond Jennings.
This is hilarious its funny how he takes his time walking to the outfield oh and baseball is AWESOME!!!
I went to a baseball game last night and a leisurely stroll broke out.
Can't blame Gary here. Recall him as a catcher with the Bosox. Good baseball man.
What Organization is this team tied to?
If I was the umpire, I would have forfeited the game.
Why would you build a wall that has gaps in it like that. I would think this happens often.
Had the umpires stopped the runner and batter-runner at a two base award, then go out and rule the ball in play. They, the umpires, would have put the runner and the batter-runner in jeopardy of being put out. However, after letting the runner and the batter-runner score, then making their ruling of a ground rule double IS exactly what should have happened, regardless of what the two experts in the booth said.
That’s the Delay of game of baseball!
You are a fool, Gary. Why don't you want the correct call? Hope you've grown up since then.
Perfect example of never give up! LOL
Desmond Jennings is a stud.
Why is there a gap?
Can't believe I just watched that.
Double or homer, who's brilliant idea was it to put the yellow line on top of the fence?
@burakomin then y do u watch BASEBALL videos
They should DNA test the ball for the pitchers skin cells lol
😂
I totally understand both sides of this. Allenson HAD. NO. CHOICE. but to argue multiple balls behind the wall, and the umps HAD. NO. CHOICE. but to eject Allenson for stalling/wasting time.
That was the biggest helmet move I ever saw by a coach
Gary must have the same D.N.A as Wally Backman
@noslashnognr Yeah, I got my dates wrong for some reason. I went to the game on Monday.
im not sure if it has to clear the bike rack to be a homerun, but looks like to me that it hits the bike rack and then goes behind the pad.
The Cameraman stole that shit. Lets go Tides.
@burakomin then y do u watch BASEBALL video
EVERYONE STOP POSTING NEGATIVE COMMENTS!! The fact of the matter is that it was a ground rule double and the 3rd base coach was ejected for wasting everyone's time. And stop saying how the stadium was empty. The game was going on on a weekday and it was late, that is why no one is there.
howard baxter more people there than any marlin games
Ikilled ColMustard Hahaha.
The stadium was empty because it’s baseball. A bunch of whiny ass pansies playing a game with their code of unwritten rules, slap fights, and lack of actual athleticism.
Is this your first time ever vieving social media video??? EVERY VIDEO no matter how sad the video or dumb. Or funny. There will be negative comments. Lol. No negative comments. That was funny.
Chris Stewart boi baseball is the best sport. It take has some of the most athletic people it's hard to play
great call by the umps... manager did what he had to do, fight for his team... annoying that it took so long, but he'd be remiss if he didn't do that... gotta love baseball!
Why is the wall set up that way....this seems like it would often be an issue
Er.... a Gary, I think the ball HAS TO CLEAR THE WALL to be a homerun. LOL
This is where there should be outs recorded for to much time. The guy didn't even jog out and back that is so ridiculous
Here is another great way to make an ass out of yourself in baseball!
why am I still watching this?
@samuricex The ball didn't go over the fence, that's how it is different...
if they had just put that "rack" wall on top of the main wall, there would have been no confusion. The ball would have bounced back in, or gone over, simple as that
My roller derby and softball number is 6... I do believe he's giving all of us sixes a bad name.
why the hell do you even have the outfield wall setup like that?
Well, at least he waited till the 9th inning to get ejected. lol
i can understand why he was upset, he had to check and make sure there wasnt a whole or another ball on the other side
How would the umpires know that the ball didn't go over the fencing and bounce/roll back without looking at a replay?
I am in total agreement with you!
