Just saw the ending to the Pirates game and how Meals completely blew the game. Earlier on he ejected McLouth for questioning a call. I believe the Union should seriously look into firing this guy as he’s an arogant umpire who wants everyone to THINK he runs the game when he RUINS it by making calls such as tonight’s

This is the ump who blew the call at the end of last night’s 19-inning Braves-Pirates game.

Jerry—-

You need to go to “remedial” umpire school AFTER you have your eyes examined.
How do you have the confidence or respect of players [other than the Braves] or your fellow umps to go out and work another game??
Today your the country’s most unbelieveable person.
We wonder if you’re really Pete Rose!!
