Grab a beer, it’s time to have a Sunday w/ The BIGPLAY Podcast
In the MLB, the shift has become a huge part of the game. Fielders perform the strategic play on a consistent basis, and sometimes politely ask the umpire to move out of their field of vision. No big deal.
Yet when Daniel Murphy asked this particular ump to move, it wasn’t the outcome he was looking for.
So 2b Umpire Alan Porter just told Daniel Murphy "F– you" when asked to shift in #nats game. @FightinHydrant and I are aghast. pic.twitter.com/jrd2QKPN6G

Apparently the two had been jawing back forth throughout the entire game, and the shift request was the final straw.
Nats beat the Braves 10-5. Fuck you ump!
