Final Strike to end the game (pitch #8), courtesy of CB Bucknor
September 6, 2023
Also, thank you lol, but that is just so bad. I know Joe got a call against him too last inning, so I guess it evened out, but Bucknor needs to retire.

Definitely an “I want to go back to the hotel” call from the ump
No wonder Contreras was pissed. I missed the pitch but saw him having a fit in the dugout.
Yeah, that call was awful. Not even close.
It was way too hot for extra innings.
It was pretty courteous of him. To us at least.
A pitch has to be over the white to be a strike, right? That final pitch was over the white, what is there to complain about? The batter’s box has a white line right there.
Hahahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I just got a notification from bleacher report talking about the weak strike 3 call 😂😂. I mean if I was a brewers fan I’d be angry but I’ll take it as a pirates fan. Just goes to show that the mlb does need robo umps or something to help with balls and strikes.
It was a bad call, but iunno what else to say.
Umps fuck up; if you think this is an argument in favor of robots, you might be right on this one.
When the highlight reel of worst calls of the season comes out at the end of the year, this one will be a real contender for the #1 spot.
About damn time one went our way for once.
Tampa just had him last series. It was so painful
Umps have been fucking horrendous all year and deserve to be shamed for the rest of their lives
Thankfully, in this instance, CB Bucknor is atrocious.
They all generally even out in the end. Milwaukee has benefitted from bad calls, I’m sure, just like Pittsburgh has. I definitely don’t feel bad.
At least for the most part (meaning, not Brewers fans) everyone is pretty much, “LOL….what a joke”. Pirates fans know it. Baseball fans know it. The guy operating the scoreboard knew it. Even Brewers fans can take heart- It’s CB just doing CB things. I mean, does it actually surprise anyone? Angel Hernandez gives it two thumbs up.
