but this time I gotta recognize Central Park ump Bobby (left below)
Like any umpire Bobby is not flawless but he posses the following outstanding officiating characteristics:
- A solid knowledge of the game
- Is fair/impartial
- Is respected
- Reliable
- Excellent personality - totally non confrontational
It's always a pleasure to see him in the park.
A few days ago, he made a rare but correct call in a game when he called a batter out for not taking a full swing (AKA chop/bunt) during an at bat. It showed he has a clue and is aware of nuances and ebb and flow of the game. Good Job Blue - is now a sequel
I love Bobby.
ReplyDeleteHe is the best.
I agree. He is a class act. Cubans are good people.
ReplyDeleteI smoke Cubans
ReplyDeleteask the pitcher if it was an inside knuckle ball that moved even further in. i think the batter was jammed on the fists and fought off a great 2 strike pitch for a hit. i think i saw the pitcher say it was a good hit.
