yeah I saw an entire reddit thread of people trying to figure it out and I don't think anyone did. but jomboy got what castellanos was saying perfectly I think.
That's actually a really good point about having an official warning. Soccer has yellow cards, basketball it's two technicals or flagrant fouls , football has specific personal fouls that can lead to ejections. MLB could definitely do with more clearly defined just cause for ejection rather than just the umpire feeling like it.
I generally agree, but there are some things that are said that should be automatic ejections, like the magic word in Bull Durham. If you know, you know.
@@alohajoe98 The problem with baseball is that it is full of umps that have to make themselves a part of the game. You breath wrong and their ego gets even the slightest blow of the wind you get tossed.
Ah those good old technicals. Had a guy on my team get like 13 in one season somehow. Was told if he gets one more he’s getting benched for the rest of the season.
You already know the answer. You can't say that to the ump. It's personal. It's the bright line that's been in baseball since before we all were born. You can attack the call to a point (unless it's balls/strikes). But you can't attack the man. Saying "you suck" is not salvageable no matter what comes after it. Technically it's about the calls, I guess, but the "you suck" at the front of it betrays the ultimately personal nature of the attack.
@@adamwatkins1150 Exactly. People need to stop getting mad at umpires for enforcing the rulebook. They're the messengers, just doing what they're required to do.
@@adamwatkins1150 You know a great way to solve being told that you suck at your job? Don't suck at your job. Who gives a damn if it's personal or not, every other person on that field is going to hear personal shit talking in every game, but the umpires can't blow off a "you suck at your job". There's a reason why baseball has crap ratings.
@@thecaynuck4694 They could also not suck at their job. Baseball is incredibly favored towards pitchers. League batting average is at the lowest it has ever been since the mlb has existed. Pitchers don't need and shouldn't get a few inches out of the zone. Also umpires go outside the rulebook all the time. If they don't like how a batter reacts some will purposely call a pitch a strike that was farther out of the zone. 99% of the time there is no punishment for umpire who make judgment calls based off emotions. You want people to stop getting mad at umpires? Then overall, umpires need to stop being bad.
This why hockey is better. You can say just about anything to a ref when they suck at their job. Will they hold it against you and your team? Probably, but you can chirp the fuck out of them.
Castellanos gets ejected, as there's a drive into deep left field by bell and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame. Oh, and Bell is also now ejected.
I pride myself and I think of myself as a man of faith - as there's a drive deep into left field by Castellanos. It will be a home run. And so that will make it a 4-0 ball game.
This might be one of the best breakdowns Jomboy has ever done. The editing, the jokes, the rythm, the storytelling... Everything was top-notch. Impressive!
He was so in the right here though all jokes aside, umps are terrible at their job and never held accountable, they’re fragile children who are ineffective.
As a Reds fan I give David Bell (the manager) flak for a lot of things. However, if there's anything you can count on him for is to back up and protect his guys no matter the circumstance. Remember, this is the same guy who got in an all-out fist fight brawl against the entire Pirates bench when Amir Garrett charged the entire goddamn team. I respect the hell out of that.
That's not true. The first one was automatic. The second one was iffy, but props to the one umpire for having the other umpire's back. Those calls were not so bad as to warrant any kind of whining let alone that drama-fest.
I’m just waiting for one of these umps that goes on power trips to just end up with the batter not saying anything, turn around and clocks then with a power swing across the head… maybe then it would be an actual strikeout…..
Imagine people-watching with Jimmy. He just gives you the dirty details of people's conversations. "Oh shit she just told him he's got a tiny dong, savage."
It was closer on the replay than the box was. It was right there. You can see the shadow right underneath the batter, so it's not at some crazy angle. The shadow is basically under the ball or maybe ever so slightly to the left of it. Technically, not giving the black, yeah it was a ball. But only by a few hairsbreadths. When you whine and rant and personally attack on the slightest little itsy bitsy mayyyyybe it was off the plate a 16th of an inch, you lose all credibility, and you're going to get tossed much quicker than if you save it for when your gripe is legitimate.
@@adamwatkins1150 But it was two balls in a row, and the second one was even *more* off the plate than the first. That, combined with the ump needlessly checking on the check-swing before, actually makes me take Castellanos' side because that's just unprofessional and it really did look like the ump had some personal vendetta first.
@@isaacgraham5727 counterpoint: if the ump has already shown that he’s giving off the plate a little, adjust and swing at the pitch. That was too close to take with 2 strikes. Don’t leave it up to the umpire. They teach this to 8 year olds.
This channel is the most entertainment I can find on youtube now, I guess im a fan of baseball now. I love how he makes these managers sound so silly when theyre flaming all the bad umpires xD. Its pure candy
two things made me start watching baseball again, last game I watched was the World Series : Subway Series, your breakdowns and one of my friends is playing now.
Seriously this is amazing!! Hahaha. He makes baseball so fun and interesting and it’s like we get a behind the scenes look with his lip reading. Well done as always!!
I think that was the same umpire who ejected the manager was the same making horrible calls at the Cardinals Brewers game a couple nights ago! He also ejected 3 players in that game. I think he just does it because he can and likes to eject people. And the thing I don’t get is that the manager was talking to The Homeplate umpire and the other empire came from basically nowhere and randomly ejected him. He did not even know what was going on he just threw them out and made excuses it seems.
You should check out the brewers/ cardinals game from yesterday (8/18) it was bit of wild one due to calls by the umpire behind the plate and the first base ump throwing out Arenado between innings total of 3 people were thrown out and brewers had a good comeback win in extra innings
They stand there for saftey reasons. It's called "the slot", and it's currently the best option for umpires to setup to see the pitches as accurately as possible while being in as little danger as possible. If they were to setup in the dead center of the plate then they're dramtically increase their risk of taking a foulball straight to the facemask which can cause concussions (plus if you take a look at the pause at 1:48 the pitch has the corner of the plate which should be called a strike).
@@themltvods it builds off that too. In the “slot” you have a great view of the inside and top of the zone. If you have to miss they want you to miss the outside or low pitch because those are easier for the batter to get too. If you call a pitch an inch off the zone it’s really not a big deal. An inch in and the bat is fucked.
@@Kalbuir66 or the batter can figure out that if the ump just called this pitch barely outside a strike you might want to swing at the next one that’s in the exact same spot… the ball is maybe an inch max outside the plate y’all act like it was an egregious call lol
No surprise to see Alan Porter here ringing up Bell, he just had a couple of shockers in the Brewers-Cardinals series too. Guy’s an up-and-coming joke of an umpire.
@@vanillatwice Actually the reason he was saying the ump was bad at his job was because he was called out on strikes. Any conversation with the umpire about that you think it was wrong is arguing the call. The content of the conversation is irrelevant, the fact that Castellanos was arguing like that to the umpire was enough to get him tossed. Edit: I should add, that was why David Bell was running over. He knew that Castellanos was close to being tossed even before he said the bad at his job line.
The insta ejection power is kind of nuts, but so is the arguing. No other sport is it allowed to get in a refs face and F bomb them. What is the perfect outcome, you argue so much that the umps change their ball/strike call? Never happening
Jomboy putting in them extra HOURS! Thank you for your great commentary. I know it might get old hearing that but. You should create your own commentary station for each game! And watch mlb hire you and then we loose your great material! Jk thanks again jomboy
As a batter if the ump just called a strike on the outside corner, you never take that pitch again especially with 2 strikes. Protect the plate, idk why Cast was so shocked the ump called the second outside fb a strike, you could make the argument it’s a hair outside, but the umpires are people who aren’t perfect, at least he was being consistent with his slightly extended strike zone. As a hitter you need to adjust to that and not throw a temper tantrum when essentially two of the exact same pitches in a row are both called strikes
To be fair though, most umps will warn a player or manager and make it clear to not argue any more, so that serves the same purpose. Here, Castellanos went straight to personal attacks, which gets you ejected every time.
Not even a remotely accurate assessment. You obviously know shit about baseball cause I'm legally blind and I could tell those were NOT strikes. That lame ass protect the plate bullshit kills me. Why swing at a pitch you KNOW is a ball? Stop blaming the players and kissing the Umps asses. 😂😂
I'm always impressed by hitters who know the difference between a strike and a ball that's an inch or 2 out of the zone. However, I played ball pretty competitively for about 12 years and my coaches always taught me to adjust to the umpires zone. Didn't matter if the pitch was "technically" a ball and what REALLY didn't matter was if you saw 2 pitches in a row and just looked at the second one like you thought the ump was gonna change his mind. A lot of umps irritate the hell out of me but the idea that a human is expected to always call a pitch exactly right w/in LESS than an inch is nonsense. Also, if we're being honest, the major league strike zone is very small...honestly too small.... so I only have sympathy when the pitch is more than 2 balls outside of the zone. Inside of that, the pitch is still very hitable for pretty much every hitter. And for anyone who complains about that, you need to appreciate hitters like Vlad Guerrero Sr and Javy Baez (to name a very few) that just free swing and put good wood on a lot of "Bad Balls".
Castellanos misses a chance to lightly toss his belt here. Shame. Side note: Bell and the Umps discussion could be placed in a television show as a couple's breakup, and I'd totally buy it.
The trick seems to be in the phrasing. Maybe players should try it this way, “Nothing personal, but as one professional to another, you’re really fucking bad at your job.”
I just wanna know who dislikes these videos. I sauce Jomboy a like as soon as I click the video bc I know how he works hard on them and it’s gonna be a banger every time
Your channel has single handedly made me love the game of baseball. The breakdowns of the games showed me how damn fun baseball is. The interactions with the umps are all time.... and now I'm reading the MLB is testing robo umps. This is the kinda stuff that's making me love the game, not the potential speed and fairness of the sport.
And you probably think you walked to school uphill in the snow both ways, too. And that the snowstorms were bigger when you were a kid. Nope. People are people. Prideful. Craving respect. Telling someone who made a call on a pitch that could have gone either way that "You suck..." is asking to be tossed. You WANT to go if you say that. And everyone knows it. MLB will not even give a second thought to that ejection. The umpire supervisor probably wanted some explanation as to the second one, though.
@@adamwatkins1150 the difference is when you are a professional you do not let your emotions influence your actions. These umps are not behaving like professionals.
This is not being soft. It's stated in the rulebook (which so many fans like you never read) that arguing balls and strikes is ejectable. Especially when you use magic words like "you ____." Any personal insult, umpires are forced to eject a player. Don't blame them, umpires just enforce the rules they're told to follow. Castellanos needs to swing at borderline pitches and keep his mouth shut.
Are we really getting this bad where something this close is dissected under a microscope? The pitch was close, it could have gone either way, but we're trying to become perfectionists in everything now. We got instant replay back, now I'm sure they will make many unreviewable things reviewable in the future.
Idea here: a team of a player that gets ejected for disputing a call gets one challenge a game and if the player is right the ump gets ejected and they go to technology for the rest of the game to determine balls/strikes
Who gets their feelings hurt more, the opposing team when they get showed up for putting a position player on the mound in a blow out or the umps when someone tells them they suck at their job. Seriously umps, get it together. The robots are coming for your job. The future is now.
@@russellbrooker2122 Interesting. I feel like he would be safer behind the catcher, I would think in the open he is more vulnerable to foul balls and wild pitches But I don't watch baseball that much. Thanks for clarifying.
I need coaches to up their game. If the umps can make it all about them then coaches should be able to do the same. Need more good Sweet Lou type rants and arguments.
I like the yellow card idea. The ump could pull out the card - write the name on it then dramatically pull the card out the second time and scroll down Santa’s list to see if Timmy gets tossed. I only want this so there will be endless opportunities for your commentary , ) You Rock my friend!
Jomboy, we have to have a talk. You are single handedly fucking up my news feed. Google thinks I like baseball because of your breakdowns and content. I don't like baseball, I just like Jomboy content. Keep doing what you're doing. I'll get Google sorted.

It’s not that some umpires aren’t witty, it’s that if they said stuff like that they’d still be witty, but not still an umpire.
"I suck? You just struck out on the same pitch, same location expecting a different result."
I appreciate the KC hat in the crowd! 👍
The official warning is in the rule book: you can’t argue balls and strikes 🤷🏻♂️
Exactly!!! And you definitely don't get in the ump's face and talk shit.
Technically he didn't argue about balls and strikes. Is there something in there about calmly telling him he's bad at his job?

The umping this season is at an all time low!
that is simply not true
@@zachellinthorpe1277 Ever heard of hyperbole?
@@deventazz8018 there are way too many people out there who actually believe this, and it's simply false, excuse me for not reading his mind
So, you think the quality of umpiring is good?
@@marcmeyer9969 Actually, yes. If you look at the data, the umpiring keeps on getting better year to year.
Those were great pitches. Consistent location. Consistent calls. Batter needed to protect. Simple. Love ya Jomboy. Keep them videos coming
Not even a remotely accurate assessment. You obviously know shit about baseball cause I'm legally blind and I could tell those were NOT strikes. That lame ass protect the plate bullshit kills me. Why swing at a pitch you KNOW is a ball? Stop blaming the players and kissing the Umps asses. 😂😂
@@tonyabbett1639 take your meds bro. It's showing 🤣
I'm always impressed by hitters who know the difference between a strike and a ball that's an inch or 2 out of the zone. However, I played ball pretty competitively for about 12 years and my coaches always taught me to adjust to the umpires zone. Didn't matter if the pitch was "technically" a ball and what REALLY didn't matter was if you saw 2 pitches in a row and just looked at the second one like you thought the ump was gonna change his mind. A lot of umps irritate the hell out of me but the idea that a human is expected to always call a pitch exactly right w/in LESS than an inch is nonsense.
Also, if we're being honest, the major league strike zone is very small...honestly too small.... so I only have sympathy when the pitch is more than 2 balls outside of the zone. Inside of that, the pitch is still very hitable for pretty much every hitter. And for anyone who complains about that, you need to appreciate hitters like Vlad Guerrero Sr and Javy Baez (to name a very few) that just free swing and put good wood on a lot of "Bad Balls".
Which is why umps should be out of a job and it should be automated, with sensors.
Was at this game. Crowd went nuts when they both got ejected. The castellanos one might've been the quickest toss I've ever seen though
Castellanos misses a chance to lightly toss his belt here. Shame.
Side note: Bell and the Umps discussion could be placed in a television show as a couple's breakup, and I'd totally buy it.
The trick seems to be in the phrasing. Maybe players should try it this way, “Nothing personal, but as one professional to another, you’re really fucking bad at your job.”
Jomboy binge watch club!
I just wanna know who dislikes these videos. I sauce Jomboy a like as soon as I click the video bc I know how he works hard on them and it’s gonna be a banger every time
people who dislike these videos are known as “umpires”
Likely the know-it-alls who follow Close Call Sports. They just love complaining about JomBoy.
I was at that game! I actually used y’all’s seat geek code for this
Can’t cover Castellanos enough. These comments are hilarious
in the umps defence if the Canad Canad camera is looking straight down or angled from center of plate the ball catches the front corner
You know the Yankees won just by the tone Jomboy do these breakdowns lol usually when they lose he sounds less energized.
Was at this game the argument lasted a longgggggg time before they threw out the manager
Can’t wait to watch the breakdown of the terrible calls/ejections in the Cards v. Brewers series. I think it was the same umpiring crew.
Been watching for a while but the lip reading on this one earned my sub
Why is everyone that plays or officiates baseball so precious??? Everyone always worried about their feelings getting hurt 😂
Your channel has single handedly made me love the game of baseball. The breakdowns of the games showed me how damn fun baseball is. The interactions with the umps are all time.... and now I'm reading the MLB is testing robo umps. This is the kinda stuff that's making me love the game, not the potential speed and fairness of the sport.
lol this is the second time Bell has been told he was ejected because "they HAD to eject him"
Best lip reader in sports. Jomboy!!
Umps have definitely gotten softer over the years.
Fr. They don’t understand that the game of baseball is not about them!
And you probably think you walked to school uphill in the snow both ways, too. And that the snowstorms were bigger when you were a kid. Nope. People are people. Prideful. Craving respect. Telling someone who made a call on a pitch that could have gone either way that "You suck..." is asking to be tossed. You WANT to go if you say that. And everyone knows it. MLB will not even give a second thought to that ejection. The umpire supervisor probably wanted some explanation as to the second one, though.
@@adamwatkins1150 the difference is when you are a professional you do not let your emotions influence your actions.
These umps are not behaving like professionals.
@@otm646 Much like the players shouldn't be having tantrum's in the first place
This is not being soft. It's stated in the rulebook (which so many fans like you never read) that arguing balls and strikes is ejectable. Especially when you use magic words like "you ____." Any personal insult, umpires are forced to eject a player. Don't blame them, umpires just enforce the rules they're told to follow. Castellanos needs to swing at borderline pitches and keep his mouth shut.
jomboy lip reading and reenactments are so. damn. good.
Are we really getting this bad where something this close is dissected under a microscope? The pitch was close, it could have gone either way, but we're trying to become perfectionists in everything now. We got instant replay back, now I'm sure they will make many unreviewable things reviewable in the future.
Your lip reading is impeccable 😂
As a Reds fan, anytime David Bell gets thrown out of a game, I honestly feel like we have a better shot at winning.
I don't think he's the one that said "whattya guys think about trying to do this season with no bullpen?"
Idea here: a team of a player that gets ejected for disputing a call gets one challenge a game and if the player is right the ump gets ejected and they go to technology for the rest of the game to determine balls/strikes
Umpires: the softest officials in all of sports.
Daddy jomboy always makes my day
Who gets their feelings hurt more, the opposing team when they get showed up for putting a position player on the mound in a blow out or the umps when someone tells them they suck at their job.
Seriously umps, get it together. The robots are coming for your job. The future is now.
Why is the ump positioned so far inside? Shouldn't he be squared with the plate for a better view of the strike zone?
No, works the slot position for safety
@@russellbrooker2122 Interesting. I feel like he would be safer behind the catcher, I would think in the open he is more vulnerable to foul balls and wild pitches But I don't watch baseball that much. Thanks for clarifying.
I'm starting to wonder if the mlb is just a drama show, none of the actual games matter. It's all the work of cgi
All I’m saying is Baseball has increased in popularity immensely since Jomboy
Some of these umpires are way too sensitive. Lol
You know I'm not necessarily a baseball fan, but you keep me interested that's for sure!
I need coaches to up their game. If the umps can make it all about them then coaches should be able to do the same. Need more good Sweet Lou type rants and arguments.
Yeah they need to start swingin' can't get ejected twice woooh
The actually with the ump on the strike calls those were pretty much strikes, they were great pitches and the ump was consistent to idk
I like the yellow card idea. The ump could pull out the card - write the name on it then dramatically pull the card out the second time and scroll down Santa’s list to see if Timmy gets tossed. I only want this so there will be endless opportunities for your commentary , )
You Rock my friend!
the boom ejected part was actually funny lol
Jomboy is truly a legend
Jomboy, we have to have a talk. You are single handedly fucking up my news feed. Google thinks I like baseball because of your breakdowns and content. I don't like baseball, I just like Jomboy content.
Keep doing what you're doing. I'll get Google sorted.
Thank you. I was waiting for this.
I love it how all these breakdowns are about the umps
Idk man the only time I watch baseball is through your breakdowns but I kinda like how the umps can just eject you at anytime for any reason 😂 keeps ya on your toes
I love your videos and what u do with voice over...
I don't even watch baseball, i just like the commentary
Jomboy you the man
