Blue heard Baty say "that's a bad call" under his breath and challenged for him, lmao

Today I was literally thinking to myself, "wow, since the introduction of ABS, I haven't once been filled with a desire to violently choke out an umpire over a missed call. It's so cool how they don't have to chimp out and dig in their heels any more over obvious mistakes. What a great improvement to the game!"

Thank you, Junior Valentine, for reminding us that MLB umpires remain petty and insufferable babies.

Let's review.

• Baty was wrong. It was a strike.

• He mouthed off & argued balls/strikes.

He either gets tossed, or it's a Challenge.

Pick one.

No other option.

(FUCK THE METS.)

(FUCK THE ENTIRE CITY OF NEW YORK.)

But the important thing is:

Baty was a wrong bitch.

Period.

Baty is a notorious whiner. But if casually whining about balls and strikes actually got players thrown out, every game would be a forfeit by the middle of the 3rd.

And if Valentine threw him out for arguing balls and strikes, that would at least be his prerogative. He didn't do that. Instead he just arbitrarily took one of the team's ABS challenges.

The rule on what constitutes a challenge is clear, and Baty did not signal a challenge. An umpire ignored the rules either because he was being a petty bitch, or because he was retarded and didn't know the rule. And then he dug his heels in like a toddler when his failure was pointed out. Fuck him.

I don't give a shit about the Mets, and NYC should fall into the ocean. Defending the ump here is retarded.

Nahhhhh.

See, the catch is that Baty BAITED the ump with a FEIGNT toward tapping his helmet, after calling it a bad call, Baty ABSOLUTELY should've been thrown out, he's a whiny sneaky piece of shit, just as you said, and the Mets should be grateful that the ump "misunderstood" Baty, and grateful that there's no sub-challenges to challenge challenges.
