Mics picked up Giants manager Bob Melvin's entire NSFW tirade towards the umpire
With Logan Webb on the mount in the fifth inning for the Giants on Tuesday night, home plate umpire Tony Randazzo accurately called a low sinker for a ball. Yet, he turned to the Giants dugout to tell manager Bob Melvin to stop barking about balls and strikes.
Randazzo then said, "That's it!" And he ejected Melvin. That was when the chaos broke loose, and the microphones picked up almost every word. (Warning: The video contains strong language)

Melvin got right in Randazzo's face and demanded that the umpire call a consistent zone. "You're killing us," Melvin said. He went on to tell Randazzo that he was "(expletive) better than that."
Again, the call that set Melvin off there was correct. But the Giants manager was still fuming over a missed strikeout call on Patrick Bailey.

And despite those fireworks from Melvin, Randazzo had a solid performance behind the plate. According to Ump Scorecards, he accurately called 143 of 149 taken pitches (96 percent accuracy). And he was perfect on called ball accuracy.

Melvin might have been a bit harsh there.

Tigers P Jack Flaherty Called Out By Detroit Legend Amid Rough Start Wednesday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Detroit Tigers recently fell behind the Los Angeles Dodgers in the race for MLB's best record heading into the All-Star Break, a situation that many felt was inevitable considering the rash of injuries that has hit manager AJ Hinch's team. Advertisement The Tigers took Game 1 of their doubleheader against the Washington Nationals on Wednesday behind two home runs from Riley Greene including a three-run shot that set the tone for the rest of the afternoon. On Wednesday night, Tigers starter Jack Flaherty's start to Game 2 of the double header elicited a reaction from a well known Detroit area radio broadcaster. Jack Flaherty of the Detroit Tigers. © Lon Horwedel-Imagn Images "Flaherty a little sketchy these days," Mark Champion, the longtime Detroit Lions and Pistons radio voice, said on his X account Wednesday as Flaherty gave up two runs to the Nationals in the first inning. Champion, the voice of the world famous Disney World commercial played after Super Bowls are completed, pointed out a sentiment that has been on the minds of hundreds of thousands of Tigers fans in recent weeks. Advertisement Flaherty's earned-run average was 4.80 coming into the game and could balloon even higher if he doesn't get things turned around in a hurry. Flaherty pitched for both the Tigers and Dodgers last season, proving himself as a big game pitcher with the ability to lead his team to a World Series Championship. The question now is whether Flaherty has enough gas left in the tank to recover his prior form as the Tigers continue to scratch and claw their way toward what they hope will be an American League Central Division pennant.

"That is the most we've had in a season since 2015, when Miguel Cabrera, Jose Iglesias, J.D. Martinez and David Price represented us in Cincinnati." Advertisement The Tigers' four All-Star selections did not fully satisfy fans who shared their objections in the comments. "Tork (Spencer Torkelson) and Mize should have made it too. Maybe even (Zack) McKinstry," a fan said. "When was the last time we had six? That should have been the minimum, 6. Ridiculous," another said. "Casey Mize should be on it," another said. "Mize, (Will) Vest, McKinstry and Torkelson all have cases to be in," another added. "Tork robbed WOW," another said. "MLB hates Detroit," another fan said as Tigers fans digested the surprising news that only four players had been named to this year's team.
