LSU pitcher has a 95 mph fastball and yet throws breaking balls at least 75 percent of the time. Interesting.

Breaking ball is his best pitch. 95 MPH and not being able to locate a FB is useless.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Not all, but the movement on some of those 95-100 mph pitches looked like he was throwing a wiffle ball. Ball headed straight at the plate then veered up or down or left or right.

I know ESPN TV explained this, but in case you couldn't hear them, a #MCWS ejection thread:
Coastal head coach Kevin Schnall was arguing balls and strikes and umpire gave him a warning, including about his profanity. He came out of the dugout to further argue, cursed again...

Schnall was ejected and was supposed to leave. Didn't. Was given a 2-game suspension for prolonged arguing...

Coastal assistant Matt Schilling also ejected for comments. Anyone other than head coach is tossed, it's a one-game suspension on top of the ejection. Then he got an additional 2 games for prolonged arguing.
So, total suspensions: Schnall 2 games, Schilling 3 games...

This used to be fun to follow but now it's gotten so big that they let people that aren't there send $.

POS umpire decides that he's the show. F the SEC and all of the damn bias anymore.
Umpire needs to realize where he is, the magnitude of the game for coaches and players, and realize he is not the reason people paid money or tuned in to watch the game.
Blame the MLB for how Coaches/Managers and Umpires react accordingly...

The Majors love the show of a Manager arguing and getting tossed in games, its almost a daily basis during the season, its gotten so bad in the last few years that it has filtered down into the college ranks, hell even the highschool level.

I guess I just don't understand how hard it is for the umpire to go over to the coach and simply say, "Coach are you arguing balls and strikes because you know what I'm going to do if you are and I really don't want to."
Instead it's this whole show of ego.

It was a clash of egos and coaches have no bullets in their guns.

Coach had a short fuse and ump had a quick trigger. Ump could've just ignored the initial complaint entirely, not a time for rabbit ears. Also, the coach should've known better. There's a time to get thrown out for balls and strikes, but the first inning of a CWS game isn't one. I lean towards the coach's side because of the setting and importance of the game, but a dumb incident all around in an otherwise good game.
