  1. Probably would have called it a fair ball if he didn’t lose his footing.

  2. Who’s gonna miss balls and stri…I mean call balls and strikes?

  3. When CB Bucknor was a tee-ball umpire, half the kids used to draw walks…

  4. Bucknor may be a shitty umpire, but some of you being glad that he got hurt like this is just terirble

  5. Like when you used to smack the TV to make the picture come in clearer. Imagine he comes back with a normal K zone.

  6. Bet he didn’t see that coming…

    But seriously. Hope he’s okay. I can’t stand the guy calling games, but I don’t wish him harm.

  7. *watches catcher and trainer come to the aide of a senior citizen*

    how can you not be romantic about baseball?!

  8. What part of this hurts? I imagine it hurts your neck bad and it scares the shit out of you, but am I missing anything?

  9. This might be the worst start to a season for any single individual in baseball history.

    Or, this might be the start of a great thread full of brutal baseball facts.

  10. I keep imagining these umpires at home trying to lay down rules for their kids, and the kids keep tapping the tops of their heads. Mom comes in and overrules.

  11. I was at that game just now and you could hear that hit his face mask pretty hard from the second level. Ouch.

  12. After the week he has had, he probably needs an injury break… Like a season long one…
