Hey ump... we know it's the ninth inning of a getaway day game, but this pitch was nearly over Mitch Haniger's head...
were beaten by the New York Yankees on Thursday afternoon, 5-0, at Yankee Stadium. The loss dropped the M's to 27-24 on the season and earned them a split in the four-game series.With no outs in the frame Mitch Haniger was punched out on a ridiculous strike three call by the home plate umpire. It was so egregious that Rob Friedeman, aka @PitchingNinja posted it on social media with a robot emoji, essentially saying we need robot umpires.Yes, it was late in the game.
This wasn't the only call that the M's were frustrated with, either. Luis Castillo, who started for Seattle, was also questioning MacKay at various points of the afternoon. All in all, the M's still earned a split against the best team in the American League. They are now 3-4 through a grueling 10-game road trip that ends this weekend in Washington.Follow Inside the Mariners on social media
