"S**t brews and brews and brews til it boils over", "Bring out the robots" - Chicago Cubs catcher draws a line with bat after an argument with the umpire, MLB Twitter annoyed by bad calls

Earlier today, Chicago Cubs catcher Wilson Contreras got tossed from the game after arguing a ridiculous strike three call. If you have been watching the 2022 Major League Baseball season so far, then it should come as no surprise that the umpires have been shakey, at best, this season. With talks of replacing traditional umpires with &quot;robot umps&quot;, umpires in Major League Baseball are in the hot seat and are getting exposed on the highest stage.Jomboy Media@JomboyMediaWilson Contreras was ejected from the game after arguing strike three. He drew a line in the dirt to show the ump he's been all over the plate today.140184Wilson Contreras was ejected from the game after arguing strike three.

However, this strike three call against Cubs catcher Wilson Contreras is absolutely absurd. As seen in the tweet above, the ball was clearly inside, and Contreras was even brushed off the plate. It makes sense that Chicago Cubs fans and MLB fans, in general, are losing it on Twitter.Chicago Cubs fans are in dissaray on MLB TwitterRocketman@clarkxviBaseball anger is unlike any other anger.

It is ridiculous and really takes players out of the game and makes baseball less fun to watch when things like this happen, especially when it shouldn't have to.Black Bolt@DannyDimes_23The strike zone is the heart of the game, and the umps inability to call an accurate strike zone greatly effects the game.

The game directly gets affected in a negative way when the umpires cannot do their job properly. Perhaps, robot umpires are a viable option now?Jen@jenjencbdThis has to be one the funniest ejections.

Although drawing a line in baseball might be one of the easiest ways to get ejected, it is always amusing to see, and maybe Contreras was just giving some helpful advice!Carson Seeber (Oliver Drake fan account)@CarsonS_97Contreras complaining like Jon Lester didn’t get that pitched called 99% of the time with him behind the dish twitter.com/jomboymedia/st…Jomboy Media@JomboyMediaWilson Contreras was ejected from the game after arguing strike three.

Although some players get favorited by umpires, this ball should never have been called a strike in any situation.Nate Young@TheNateBot80He’s a catcher he knows the zone as well as the ump, smh. twitter.com/jomboymedia/st…Jomboy Media@JomboyMediaWilson Contreras was ejected from the game after arguing strike three.

He is on the money with this tweet, and that's probably why he was so distraught after this call.Matt Gregory@Arkansas241Once again @MLB does nothing!!!! Name a worse commissioner!!??

He, then, says Ray Charles, who is blind, can call a better game than this, and he probably is not wrong.Jon Nauman@nauman_jonI’ve done this once in my life in high school and was tossed before I even touched the ground lol twitter.com/jomboymedia/st…Jomboy Media@JomboyMediaWilson Contreras was ejected from the game after arguing strike three.

This is no doubt an effective method of getting tossed from a baseball game!Shea@5heaaaUmpires are the worst.

Perhaps, they are right, and it might be a better option.Wilson Contreras and the Chicago Cubs are just one instance of the current absurdities going on in the MLB with the umpires. Missing blatant calls really negatively changes the game in many different ways. If nothing happens soon, it is possible that the umpires might get run out of the MLB, and robot umpires will soon follow.
