Mlb Umpire School
January 21st, 2011
Do MLB catchers talk alot with the home plate umpires during the game?
I play high school baseball, but I’ve never been a catcher. It seems like whenever I go up to bat, the catcher and home plate umpire are talking alot…”I hurt my thumb on that one…oh, that pitch was meant to be up high [laughs]…ooh that was close!”
It’s SOOO annoying, and it just seems like the catcher is trying to butter up the ump. Anyone else feel this way? Do they do this at higher levels of play?
Thanks.
Not too much. They’ll get the occasional, “Sorry, I just farted” or “You get any closer, your gonna have to buy me dinner.”
