Put that baseball in a blender with some ice and make Manfred drink it. This is the only fair solution for everyone.

The results of this poll are terrifying. That’s almost 25,000 responses from a relatively hardcore baseball account. Who cares about the Catcher’s glove?!

The catcher is the answer, though the umpire is acceptable. The catcher "shouldn't" be influencing calls in the first place.
Obviously this is not how it works in reality because of human brains, but yeah

The umpire should be lying on their back with their head between the catcher’s legs so they can watch the ball pass through the plane and land in the glove

The catcher is the answer?! The ball crossed well in the zone. The job of the umpire is to watch the ball, not the glove.
I'm usually the reffing mistakes just happen guy. You cannot possibly blame anyone but the person who made the wrong decision for it, though. If the catcher

I agree. I already said "the catcher shouldn't be influencing calls in the first place". But operating under real world scenarios, if the catcher's glove doesn't whoosh 6" outside, it's a strike. I guess I should have said the answer is the umpire in hindsight, then said but the catcher didn't help lol
Anyway, robots

That Wander Franco stuff has so many different variations in social media.
Girl was 14. She was 18/19.
He 'thought' she was 18/19. I mean there were def some people showing instagram pics of her that were certainly not something an underage girl should be posting (in my old guy yells at cloud opinion lol)
Also something about the girl's mother either helping to lie about her daughter's age or otherwise just being accepting of it because Wander Franco apparently bought the girl's mother a new car.
Also apparently a bunch of other minor league and major league players are' removing likes' from instagram photos posted by the girl. Which may somewhat support the not widespread awareness of her being underage since you would think a bunch of players wouldn't be liking 'provocative' photos of underage girls (at least publicly) lol.

Yeah that's nuts. Oklahoma HS baseball at that, which is good but not quite the big 4. I heard there was some speculation he could get called up to the bigs this year and that was before his AA debut. I don't think they will, but at this point he could probably handle it which is crazy to think.
Baltimore is the new LA when it comes to hitters. Most didn't even think Holliday was the best HS hitter in that draft. Druw Jones is hitting below the Mendoza line in the low minors when he hasn't been hurt.
