A former American League Cy Young award winner was ejected from an Atlantic League game for arguing about the robot umpire’s strike zone last week.
The High Point Rockers were taking on the York Revolution on Friday and with the Rockers already down two runs in the first inning, pitching coach Frank Viola came to talk to his pitcher Dominic DeMasi.
According to The Washington Post, Viola yelled at home plate umpire Tim Detweiler about the strike zone from the dugout. Detweiler pointed to his ear to make Viola know that it was the software the league was using that calls balls and strikes.
“Do your f-----g job,” the former Minnesota Twins great yelled back.
