Jerry Crawford




Glad to see that what happened between Hinch and Crawford really got some attention across the baseball world...

"This is Crawford's second major incident of the month, after Friday's egregious blown call and subsequent outburst against Arizona manager A.J. Hinch. While Crawford has yet to sink that low during this game -- the night is still young as I type this -- the crew's decision to toss Porcello after he hit one batter with a three-run lead and no warning in effect was incompetence at best and cowing to a hostile Fenway crowd at worst. Crawford's involvement in two on-field blowups, both featuring bad umpiring decisions, calls into question his fitness to umpire major league games, especially ones with playoff implications like Tuesday's."

I know, I know. It took the Red Sox getting in a fracas to make it national news. But at least everyone knows we got robbed. Hopefully no one ever has to deal with this guy again. He seems unfit to ump. Corny but if there is a strike three,  I think he should be outta here.
