I have no problem with people yelling at the umps (especially the home plate guy tonight). He gets paid to do his job well, and he was downright awful all night. And I'm saying that after a VT win, not sour grapes after a loss. Which VT players were being heckled? Yes, we made a few errors and Sophie was not perfect, but our entire team fought their tails off. And won. There should absolutely not have been any bad stuff directed at them tonight (there never should be).

I’m pretty certain Mr Chip would approach someone doing that and nicely -- DonHo-kieHi Mar 28, 2025 at 11:20 PM ET

Yep, never heard the first negative word about our players... -- VTChip Mar 28, 2025 at 11:29 PM ET

Sometimes riding the umpire has a tendency to affect hitters also -- HokieAllMyLife Mar 28, 2025 at 10:55 PM ET

HokieAllMyLife • 03/28/25 10:55 PM ET

I'll also add it affects pitchers also. Maybe even more than hitters.** -- HokieAllMyLife Mar 28, 2025 at 11:00 PM ET

That’s incredibly disappointing to hear if accurate… -- VT825 Mar 28, 2025 at 10:38 PM ET
