Maybe but as a baseball player…. You know what’s going to happen.
I agree...dumb of Gilbert, very dumb; but, nowhere near as dumb as a rule that balls and strikes can't be argued. Biggest part of the game, and the participants can't say anything about it.
 
Our starters are not getting it done and we just give away a ton of at bats. Rather just argue and look. Notre Dame competed much better at the plate unfortunately.
 
How is a player arguing balls and strikes….. accountabilty…. That has to come from the head office…. People complained series and I didn’t think it was a bad called series…. The pitches are traveling 85-95 mph and can move more than 10 inches…. It is also where the imo thinks the ball crosses any part of the plate and not where it is caught.

Just use common sense and self awareness. Tell the player, “son, I disagree, let’s play ball.”

While at a really low level, I’ve officiated basketball. Parents and coaches yell. I’ve been intimidated. But use common sense. As long as no one threatens me, I’m ok. I don’t understand why officials/umpires can’t help diffuse as opposed to being the problem. It’s not that difficult.
