The Game Without Umpires | Past Ball Podcast

  • Summary

  • The Game Without UmpiresThis is the Past ball Podcast, a podcast that gives you a baseball minute and under the amount of time you can run around the bases. And I'm your host, Matt. A game without umpires? Spring Training Game in 2013 occurred between the Pirates and the Orioles. The Pirates, they secured a victory, seven of four, but they elected to play the bottom of the ninth. And guess what? The umpires left the game. So they decided, hey,We're going to continue to play this game and it really produced a funny visual where there was no umpires on the field, a game of baseball and some fans in the stands. And of course, this day and age with cell phones everywhere, it went viral. The Orioles, they just wanted to get some work on the mound for right-hander Gomez. After a quick discussion, they said, let's do this. An awkward and unique moment in baseball history.Beard Laws Beard Laws Podcast Tee - https://beardlaws.com/product/beard-laws-podcast-tee/Past Ball Podcast - https://beacons.ai/pastball
