He cries at every borderline pitch; nothing new, but in this instance he was kicking the dirt around, taking his time to get in the box. Then, you can clearly see him ask for time twice and get denied. That's why he flipped. I wouldn't give that bitch time either, complained at every AB and takes forever to set in box.


Lol really??

He usually never even steps out of the box..lmao

I never said he stepped out of the box. He couldn't have anyway as he took his last pitch looking. He just simply kicked the dirt around pouting like a little kid to the ump about the last call forever and then flipped when he wouldnt grant him time.

I'm fine with votto freaking out. Ump didn't let him call a time out, then he made a horrible call on a pitch at least 7 or 8 inches off the plate

It wasn't the first pitch that he called that was a ball. Votto did the same thing in like the 4th inning; kicking dirt and strolling around.. and then did again and that's when he got tossed. Both were balls.


The umps this year have been terrible with balls/strikes. The zone is extended like 3-4 inches on the outer half every game for most umps.

Daniel Hudson tweeted earlier that if Joey complains about your strike zone, he's likely the one who is right.
