She just wanted to prove that she was pretty much the same as the rest of them.

Male umpires are far from perfect. That said, why would there need to be female umpires? MLB is not the woman’s league. There are no female players or or coaches, nor should there be. I don’t agree with demanding “a woman” for the job. It is the same as Biden stating the main qualification for SCOTUS was being a black female.

The first time she ejects a player from the game:

PLAYER: "Why are you throwing me out of the game?"

UMPIRE: "You know what you did!"

PLAYER: "No, I don't!"

UMPIRE: "Well if you don't know, I'm not going to tell you!"

The gender bender bullcrap is so destructive. Why do men have to have every masculine space invaded by women? It’s exactly like Bill Burr said, they don’t want their own things. They want to ruin ours.

Honestly, of the major sports, seems like MLB would be the most amenable to female umpires because they don't have to move quickly, and it isn't a contact sport.

But that was a bad call.

Next up female players....

Why can’t they let the guys have their own spaces?

I am not going to bash a brand new rookie ref with the jitters on their first day. Let. me know how she does after her first full year.

I can’t think of any reason a woman can’t be a baseball umpire. Women shouldn’t be army soldiers or fire fighters, but I don’t see any problem with umpire.

Now, should they be NFL umpires? Probably not. You need to run fast enough to keep up with the play and many women can’t. But baseball umpire standing behind home plate calling balls and strikes? You don’t even have to be tall to see over the catcher.

How long will we even have human umpires calling balls and strikes? AI will be doing it before long and every venue will have the exact same strike zone.

Yes, the reason for all this is

* A bad spirit

* It’s systemic now. They’re out of place, away from “Adam”, and their homes.

* The truly prayed up, and in the Word, can sense this bad spirit.

* MAGA, Isaiah 59:19, raised up in parallel, came against such spirits.

No too much to really worry about, the balls and strikes will be called by the ABS system very soon. Maybe even as soon as next season.
