VIDEO: Umpire goes over the top with strikeout calls
Chris Humphreys / USA TODAY Sports
Leslie Nielsen, look what you have done.
In an almost impossible to believe video, a local baseball umpire took the unique strikeout call gimmick to a new and certainly uncalled-for new level.
If anyone ever told you that you'd never hear an umpire yell "2 Chainz!" after a strikeout, you now have grounds to call them horribly wrong.
On one hand, it's sort of funny. On the other, it's hard to imagine a way in which striking out could be made more embarrassing than it already is, but here we are.
