Bad Call
I know the umpire made a judgment decision.
However, he needs something to help his vision.
The ball hit to the outfield was ruled a catch and an out.
However, what everyone else saw left room for doubt.
The replay shows the ball hit the ground first.
Ruling a catch and an out had to be the worst.
I went out to that umpire with plenty to say.
He would not listen, and told me to go away.
For arguing, I got myself thrown out of the game.
It was truly a trap of the ball and a shame.
I shall take my case to the league for an appeal.
How could he make such a call? Come on, get real!
