Go play on that level. It's Beer league hit the F'n Ball. The worst thing in the world is slow pitch is looking for walks with hit-able pitches. Go get training as an UMP ANYWHERE and they'll tell you to call that a strike in the Men's Beer League. It might have even hit the plate it was that close. I'd say... go play intramurals... but you are already BELOW that level.

brucemercer bud, we don’t play mat ball. If it hits the plate it’s a ball. Plus I don’t care what level I play at.

I work 4 sports at HS Varsity level and beyond and worked my way up from PeeWee and MightyMite to get there. The league and the level changes the interpretation of the rule, the points of emphasis and the Tower Principle stands regardless. Not knowing that makes the game about the Ref or Ump not the players. Your league would be twice as fun for you guys if you used a "swing the damn bat" interpretation (and quit bitching). If it is hit-able pitch and not dropping straight down like a meteor. Hit it. Who in their right mind wants to see multiple pitches for every batter? You guys are ruining your own fun sweating over what you don't know was a GREAT call.

I’m sure someone else mentioned: On the called strike 2, the batter “drew a line” with his bat while arguing. A big no-no in eyes of umps. Unwritten rule. This will often get you ejected. The bogus strike 3 call is punishment for the line drawing.

No one ever believes me when I say this but in little league I hit 2 grand slams in the same inning. We cycled the entire lineup and that was with me batting 4th. Both teams came to an agreement and decided to call it quits after that. I felt really bad for the pitcher. This is the same year I broke the fields record for most homeruns in a season at 16 homers. I believe I was 13 at the time, "30 now". 3 years ago my hometown record was finally broken and the kid absolutely destroyed my record and set his own at 23 homers.

Was it just me or did the second pitch look right down the middle and the batter just stood there. Just have fun and go up the to swing the bat. My hats off to the umpire for even taking this assignment.

Anybody who plays ball knows why this happened. The batter questioned the 2nd strike and showed the umpire where is was. Better swing at the next pitch if you do that because it’s gonna be a strike no matter where it is.

Alpha Centauri That’s actually not a rule, unwritten or otherwise. That’s just a person being a prick. The thing I love about baseball is that the rules are very precise and not open for interpretation. Unlike basketball where it’s up to the refs discretion whether a bump is a foul or just a bump. Any ref or ump can miss a call but at least in baseball the rules are clear.

Alpha Centauri If it’s a rule, even an unwritten rule, then it would be observed every time but it’s not. It only happens when you are dealing with a bad umpire.

I like that the pitcher has more gear on than the catcher.

A call like that will get you disqualified from everything that requires your vision.

When I play slow pitch, half my team is stepping forward a foot right into that saucy drop pitch and swinging for 400.

The whole team should’ve just walked out and called the game. It was clearly already called by the Umpire.

That happened to me before. It didn't ever hit the plate. It was 3 or 4 inches in front of the plate. The ump cared more about his ego, than getting the call correct. That guy should not be an umpire.

Jimmy Piersall who played for the Boston Red Sox (CF,#37) once got a call 3rd strike like this. He reached into his back pocket and pulled out a water pistol and promptly squirted a circle around the plate. He got ejected.

Bewchaca you the type of guy at work to get mad someone because they brushed against you.

My biggest fluke was in little league, 15 and 16 years of age mostly on these two teams. You know the ole ball/strike clicker. I failed to reset after last batter. Next batter comes up and on his third pitch, 1st being a strike and second being a ball, the third pitch came in as a beautiful strike. Batter took it, I did a quick check and yelled STRIKE THREE! Batter looked back at me as if I was insane, the coach was running out and my 1st base ump yelled, "David - Strike 2!" He got to me before the coach did. After a five second chat with my ump, I had to gracefully yell out, "Ump went to sleep. Count is 1&2. Play Ball!" That was the last time I failed to reset my clicker. Probably shouldn't have relied on it but it did save me a few times as well.

@iblnxyi4818

We had a tied game, bases load, a power hitter up to bat. He jumps out to an 0-2 count and works his way back to 3-2 the ball hits the plate, bounced up and the catcher dropped the ball. He calls it a strike but since the catcher dropped it everyone starts running. The ump the proceeds to say the catcher caught the ball and sent everyone back to their original base. That was our number three and the other team scored a run off of an error and won the game. Umps are bullshit sometimes.

He ain’t no umpire he’s a janitor😂✌🏽

This is a great strategy, you gotta wear out the pitchers arm in slow pitch. It's like body shots in boxing.

Wait all week to play a game. You're finally at bat, but dont wanna swing? " Tuesday night softball star walks 5 times to win the championship. Named MVP!"

Ump: It was an obvious strike.....home plate was just in the wrong place...

I was on a slow pitch team that was in the championship game, we were batting in the bottom of the last inning and we were down by 10 points. For some reason the opposing pitcher lost the ability to throw strikes and began walking us one after another. The few times he got 2 strikes on a batter we got hits off him. We ended up coming back and winning the championship mainly due to walks. I still have no idea why they left him in there to blow that game. He must have been the manager and refused to accept he had the yips and needed to let someone else try to pitch.

“Let’s go we got a ball game here!” Lmaooooooo “we ain’t talking balls and strikes in slow pitch!” Lol.

Me personally, the first pitch in my wheel house, i took it. At the time “freak” bats were the way to go and had the greatest pop. I was a low ball hitter. If a pitcher wanted me to put the ball in the parking lot, he would have that ball dropping by my knees. I was weak on high pitches and would only pop out or hard line drive. But if you tossed it low on me, you quit doing it after that in that game. Low and inside i use to crush 9.999999 times out of 10. My eyes would get huge if one came in low. I was like that in high school and college baseball too tho. If you didn’t mind it going into the next county, throw it low and inside on me lol. Anywhere else i was inconsistent on what I’d do with the ball. This was all 15 years ago and further back to the late 90’s.

You can easily see the umpire made up his mind about the 3rd strike while the pitch was in the air. The umpire never did see the ball hit the ground. The ump had no idea where the ball went, he just knew it was going to be a 3rd strike. When umpires make these obvious mistakes, they should expect to be verbally abused by the players.

The exact same thing happened to me when I played little league. Bases were loaded, last inning, full count. Ball hits the plate and strike three was called.

This UMP knows what he’s doing, first of all the dude didn’t swing at a single pitch.

@briancalvelage1579

each pitch was a ball..............

I would say that he clearly made this call because the batter showed him up on the previous pitch by trying to point to where the ball landed, saying the 3-1 pitch should have been ball 4. As someone else stated, this is a big no-no, and it really is no surprise that he was called out on the next pitch to make a point. I have seen this several times before.
