The two Mexican League umpires who made the worst call in the history of the sport have been suspended. In addition to the two umpires being suspended for the rest of the season, the other two umpires on the crew have been warned for not overruling the call.
Via Yahoo! Sports:
The two umpires in the video were suspended by the league for the rest of the season. The other two umps in that crew were warned by the league after not overruling the call.
That’s a harsh punishment, but the call was egregious.
These two earned their punishment. We need the MLB to get onboard with this kind of umpire punishment for atrocious calls. It would thin the herd really quick.
