Hunter got embarrassed and then lied to cover for it. It was embarrassing for baseball

The manager runs the dugout, not the fans in the stands above the dugout.

What’s crazy is the umpire literally does not care because he knows nothing will happen to him.

My money says that MLB does nothing about it, except maybe a mildly worded semi-appology.

Time to replace umpires with technology.

This umpire needs to be suspended

These stupid idiot umpires have way to much power. I'm so sick of this shit.

What's to stop a fan from the opposing team to heckle the ump and get Boone Ejected?

What is wrong with these umpires, thinking they're bigger than the game. That's some 16-ply effing horse dung response with an ego to go along with it. Effing embarrassing.

Here’s a crazy concept… do your f’n job right and you don’t have to worry about managers and coaches yelling at you so much

Why didn’t get a cam review 😂

Mike Francesa needs to do his take on this 🤣

Boone is responsible for the players/team but obviously not the fans

Nothing will happen. The umpires union will protect the ump. Also, MLB will probably fine Boone for saying the ump screwed up.

The worst part is the ump didn’t care…. This was bad. The reason by the ump was equally bad. Plus the other ump should have said something but did. This whole situation makes the umpires bad again

The ump needs to be reprimanded

We need younger umps that understands the game and knows the rules of the games. Now everybody is going to target Boone to get ejected everytime.

That was ridiculous. Are umps really *that* fragile and insecure? Wow.

Man, I'd love to see how Billy Martin would have reacted. That ump would have had an ass full of cleats.

Umpires nowadays absolutely suck, in all aspects of the game. Something has to be done. Same with refs in hocky and basketball. It's a big problem in my eyes. They have be accountable and suspended with all these wrong calls. Very aggravating.

The umpire was wrong for throwing Aaron Boone out! Plain & simple this shouldn’t be about Boone’s previous ejections & how umpires are tired of him…the umpire mishandled what “ he felt “ happened all wrong & should be punished by mlb for it, case closed!

Baseball has an umpiring problem yet again

Oh well, we all LOVE THE HUMAN ELEMENT, don’t we?!

"i do research. no i don't know u did anything" lol

Monday afternoon game, Ump crew probably got into New York late from their Sunday assignment and Hunter was pretty grumpy to start the game. It’s not right but that’s why he had such a short wick.

Fantasy booking: Tomorrow, when the teams present the line up cards, Aaron Judge tells the umps that the Jackass has 10 minutes to publicly apologize or there will be no game today. Scenario 2: Hal demands an apology. If it doesn't happen, security removes the ump from the stadium. Scenario 3. The ump refuses to apologize. Over the PA system, we hear glass breaking and guitars blaring. Out of the Yankee dugout comes Stone Cold Steve Austin, who kicks the ump in the gut and gives him a stunner. I realize the game has gotten all corporate and wimpy these days. But, I'd like to see #1 happen.

He looks like bob the builder 😂😂

Great to live in 2024 when Peter can work from his parents house in Maryland During a show

The Umpire described HS sports lmao.

I’m surprised no one tried to fight him or like clearing the benches

He did Boone a favor! He didn’t have to watch that piss poor performance by the offense.

Boone is now the Yankees all time leader in managerial ejections

This is why robot umps might take over.

if they know that, they should know that they always call low balls as strikes on judge- yet they dont adjust

IN the dugout... That's the key words here.

Technically under rule 6.04, the umpire can actually clear the bench

I want to make a comment. I think the problem that Boone made was that he changed the lineup. Because when, Torres was batting first, I know that he wasn't doing nothing, but with Volpe in the 5th or 6th batting position. He was batting hits and homeruns and boost the other players. When Boone changed putting Volpe 1st, he is doing nothing, same for Torres in that 5th or 6th spot. I think that he needs to put the lineup back the way it was with Torres batting 1st or sit him down, because he needs to go. Also, put Volpe back in the 5th or 6th position like it was when the season started. Thank you, this is my opinion

I hate the Yank but this Umpire need to be suspend or discipline by MLB

The ump cleat said “ he did not care”….

6.04 Unsportsmanlike Conduct (a)  No manager, player, substitute, coach, trainer or batboy shall (1)  Incite, or try to incite, by word or sign a demonstration by spectators; (2)  Use language which will in any manner refer to or reflect upon opposing players, an umpire, or any spectator; at any time, whether from the bench, the coach’s box or on the playing field, or elsewhere

MLB is becoming a joke with these UMPS. absolutely ridiculous

Is part of this that umpires now get over ruled by replay. Now they exert authority that much more to compensate.

Does this ump have a history/ongoing beef with Aaron Boone that this West Coast casual MLB fans doesn't know about? When Boone says he didn't say anything and it was a fan who said it, and Wendelstadt says "I don't care!," that's kind of a tell right there.

I wish boone had walked out calmly and said in a non argumentative way that it was a fan. Hinter still needs to admit he was wrong though too.

(e)  Each umpire has authority at his discretion to eject from the playing fiel, and (2) any spectator or other person not authorized to be on the playing field.

The whole culture of umpires regularly ejecting people from games has to go. Unless someone is interfering with how the game is played, suck it up and keep it moving.

Umps like Hunter & Angel are giving MLB all the ammunition it needs to implement robo-umps. And when that happens, the players, managers, media & fans will all be celebrating.

It’s called having a bad reputation! He’s done this to himself!

Umpires suck! It’s not just Angel Hernandez, most of them are terrible!

When the CBA with the Umpires union expires, I hope that MLB does not renew their contract. The game can be officiated without them. Players may need to adjust by playing every batted ball as if it's in play, even if it turns out to be a foul ball. But MLB should figure out how to officiate the game by officials looking at video without slowing the game down.

Time to get rid of umpires. I can’t believe I am saying this because I always said I would never be for robo umps. These past couple years have changed my mind.

The problem is umpires are way too sensitive because they're getting called out for their bullshit calls. They reaped this as well by backing bad umpires.

Smh....

Don't matter, where in the rule book does it say you throw the manager out when a player or coach in the dugout argues balls and strikes?

So Boone is responsible for everything that goes on in the park. MLB needs stop bad umpires.

I thought Angel henandez was soft.......

Don is right again, this umps are the most egotistical characters in all of sports. They should get a grip.

The players really let Boone down yesterday. He took a stray bullet and they did nothing offensively to back him up.

There was no excuse for Aaron Boone to be thrown out. There's video evidence proving that it was a fan, and there's proof Boone said nothing when he got thrown out. Hunter Wendelstedt needs to be suspended for a few games. But nothing will be done, Joe Torre is a joke when it comes to the umpires and accountability.

Disciplinary action?

Unpires creating their own rules. Get them TF out of our game..

How about a new rule that a player/coach can't be ejected for yelling from the dugout?

I would be pissed off with Hunter too. That's messed up.

Ask Hunter where I can find that in the rule book. Is that really his defense?

Lets set somethjng straight. The manager/head coach is responsible for all of the managers, coaches, and players. They have to control them. And yes, if the umpires opinion it was egregious enough, they can eject the player and/or head coach. Because ultimately in the rulebook the head coach/manager is in charge.

Typical Rosenberg blowing the Ump.

The commissioner needs to to discipline this umpire

It’s embarrassing for MLB that the umpire actually said, he didn’t care who said it, you’re still gone…….

Yankees are too good this year, the umps need to "adjust accordingly" so the opposing teams have a chance. I believe in equality

These MLB umps are horrible!

Not all, but some of these umps are like overzealous bouncers at clubs. They have this one part of their lives where they have a bit of power and they abuse the hell out of it.

Robot umps - enough of the charade.

At several sporting events, we've heard chants of "F Joe Biden". Maybe tomorrow there should be a long chant of "F you Hunter".

boone wouldnt have to complain so much if these umpires weren’t so awful

I can never understand how the voice of the Yankees can have a show with these Mets clowns?

never watch baseball because of this.

Wendlestat sounds like someone just grasping for straws because he knows he’s a hundred percent wrong.

Don is wrong.. He thinks this ump is gonna get in trouble? Get real the umpires and their union are the no accountability club

Umps think their egos matter more than the game...crushing under the pressure that technology demonstrates how poor they can be.

Maybe if the umpires would pay more attention to the play on the field instead of the dugouts, they'd do a better job. The umps are terrible.

Good I don’t wanna see Aaron‘s face either

Wow, just a blatant lie by the ump. I actually used to be a pretty big baseball fan but they've destroyed the sport in the last 10 years. Between all these nonsense rules like the pitch clock and starting a runner on second in extra innings, and then on top of it having umpires with glass feelings now. It's the weirdest thing. I remember in the '70s and '80s where a manager or a player could basically get in a screaming match with an umpire over a call and would be allowed to say their peace but wouldn't get ejected unless they made physical contact with the umpire. Now they are the most fragile human beings on the face of the earth and will eject people over literally nothing. Someone needs to stop the reign of these evil umpires. They have gotten way out of control. It's almost as if they think people are buying tickets to see them, and not the teams play.

Fnoe the rules.

Mlb has so many problems and they refuse to solve anything

Damn Rosenberg everywhere lol

Oh wow lmao this guy is straight lying. He doesn’t want to admit he was wrong in thinking the yelling fan was Boone, so he comes up with some bogus story about someone from the other end of the dugout. Someone needs to review the footage and find this so called player in the dugout and also review this umps past games and see if he’s ever ejected the manager because a player was barking. I’ve never heard of such a thing

love the show love mike and don. PETE U STINK !!

PETE U STINK STAY ON 97MILLION FM

wouldn't make a difference. He doesn't...okay. You're right. This is over reach. Every umpire doing their job correctly is never the story. And I'm a Boston fan.

Typical Yankees haters. Don whatever your name is. Put a lid on it. You’re ruining this show.

No big deal

Who cares Boone would have gotten thrown out sooner or later in that game. So the umpire just did it early.

boone lost benefit of doubt... shoulda been tossed

I paid to watch Hunter umpire😂😂

Yeah Hunter the Umpire should be embarrassed him for himself no he embarrassed himself he embarrasses his whole family because now I heard his wife told me I had to sleep on the couch with one eye open wow that's pathetic as a umpire Major League baseball power and a husband when the wife told you sleep on the couch basically when she just told you she put you in the dog house wow man that's pathetic.? @aduncaroo

In hockey teams can get a minor penalty for the actions of their games.

Yankees get a wide ass strike zone every fucking game.. boohoo

Lucky I’m not Aaron Boone. I wouldn’t have left the field, the game would be MASSIVELY delayed, probably by 5-10 minutes

hahahhahhaha

Why is Peter on the show ? Seriously he adds nothing ..Wrestling really!
