First female umpire in MLB history makes a total fool of herself with egregious call

Industrial feminism has been a disaster for the human race, and I’ll show you why:

Now, not that I’d do any better myself (as a woman), but I’m also not pretending that my sports aptitude is on the same playing field as male professionals. The important thing though is that this umpire has broken the glass ceiling, or whatever—the game of baseball be damned—and she can go down in history…that no one will ever care about. With this ump’s debut, the mainstream media have been running pieces about how great she did, citing her scorecard, claiming her strike accuracy rate was 88%, which happens to be the average; but I have to ask, is that average being brought down by other DEI hires? I can only assume so.

While women rightfully demand men to be kept out of their areas, they then turn around and demand inclusion in male spaces; the offense magnifies when you consider the utter detriment that women have when they foist themselves in places they shouldn’t be, like…

• When Nancy Mace forced herself into the Citadel, which has only damaged the institution’s credibility and its ability to maintain elite standards.
• When women demanded combat roles in the military because “they could do the job just like men” (they couldn’t), burdening taxpayers with a bill for separate facilities for women at every U.S. military base across the world, resulting in a 100% increase in affairs for deployed spouses (when the military was only men that number was near zero), and destroying national defense via bureaucracy with endless men-are-bad-and-women-are-always-victims sexual assault briefs because women sleep around and then change their minds about the encounter once they realized they were nothing more than a good time. (Think about Patton’s forces, or General Lee’s armies...

I have seen worse calls.

[teeman8r]

i am not sure how egregious that call was, but she sure keeps a clean home plate.

[RckyRaCoCo]

A lot worse.

[Tell It Right]

I’m thinking she’ll make the prices of the scout seats (behind home plate) go up.

If there are no lady players then there shouldn’t be lady umps.

[dfwgator]

A lot worse.

I know one call in particular that I’m sure we’ll agree on.

[PGR88]

Looks like that pitch caught the corner. Its a strike.

[FreeReign]

I have seen worse calls.

That's not saying much.

I've seen half a million pitches. Sure there are "worse calls".

The sample size for her was one. And it was a very bad call.

[cherry]

So not one male umpire makes bad calls.?..laughable

[dfwgator]

But still, why do we need female umpires?

[maro]

Any way, we are rapidly approaching the era of robo-umps. Humans won’t be calling balls and strikes in the pro leagues.

[Starboard]

The hitter knows it wasn’t a strike. Look at his reaction.

[TexasGator]

“The sample size for her was one. And it was a very bad call.”

I could take sample sizes of one and show you worse ...

[dfwgator]

Even Enrico Pallazzo wasn’t that bad.

Well then, it's a good thing that sports means nothing.

[FatherofFive]

Eliminate humans making these calls. Like Tennis

Not a watcher of baseball and even I can see that wasn’t close to a strike.
