Can't say I hear to many umpire quotes, but this guy was apparently very aggravated...
"They're the two clubs that don't try to pick up the pace," said West, the chief of the umpiring crew working the three-game series, according to the report. "They're two of the best teams in baseball. Why are they playing the slowest?
"It's pathetic and embarrassing. They take too long to play," he said, according to the report.
I have to agree with him. Sox vs. Yankees games are way too long. It is really shocking when they can keep in under 4 hours. It is kind of ridiculous, and I hope this message gets through to these teams. There is no reason to take this long to play a game unless there just happens to be a shit load of runs scored.
