Nelson announced that the Marlins were challenging an out call at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-unloads-on-fauci-after-fauci-claims-credit-for-developing-vaccine-in-record-time\/\" title=\"Trump Unloads On Fauci After Fauci Claims Credit For Developing Vaccine In Record Time\">home plate<\/a> in the 10th inning, but a few seconds later, he didn&#8217;t realize his stadium mic was still on and said, &#8220;They got their heads up their a**. Let&#8217;s go.&#8221; The profanity was audible to the entire stadium, with the Angels home crowd perhaps in agreement with his impatience to declare the Marlins baserunner out.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"> And it was a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mckenzie-milton-makes-miraculous-return-to-football-notre-dame-survives-upset-bid\/\" title=\"McKenzie Milton Makes Miraculous Return To Football, Notre Dame Survives Upset Bid\">successful challenge<\/a> for the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Marlins?\">@Marlins<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/CWjiCsIynZ\">pic.twitter.com\/CWjiCsIynZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Andrew Powell (@AndrewPowellDC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AndrewPowellDC\/status\/1662933450804936711?\">May 28, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Marlins ultimately won the challenge, with a review determining Angels catcher Matt Thaiss wasn&#8217;t touching home plate during a force-out play that prevented the run.

The introduction of a pitch clock in MLB this season has been a struggle for both umpires and players, with both parties struggling to enforce the rules of a system that implements time limits to a sport that has long eschewed clocks.<\/p>\n<h3>Controversial Conduct<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s unclear when or if Nelson became aware that he had just cursed out a team to an entire stadium, conduct that would be considered inappropriate for an umpire. Baseball umpires and players have been under scrutiny for their conduct on and off the field, with incidents like this only adding fuel to the fire.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Incredible umpire hot mic moment <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BpdIlhG8F0\">pic.twitter.com\/BpdIlhG8F0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jomboy Media (@JomboyMedia) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JomboyMedia\/status\/1662850282596757507?\">May 28, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>The Outcome<\/h3>\n<p>The Marlins ultimately beat the Angels in an 8-5 extra innings contest, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/larrybrownsports.com\/baseball\/umpire-jeff-nelson-hot-mic-marlins-challenge\/615693\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Larry Brown Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><em>WARNING: The following videos contain vulgar language that some viewers may find offensive.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>microphone was on and could be heard saying, &#8220;He&#8217;s out by two feet, he&#8217;s not even close,&#8221; which raises concerns about his fairness as an umpire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":666,"featured_media":1940560,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[548],"tags":[9829,7086,3801,9102,7354,8670,11833,4000],"class_list":["post-1940559","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-conservative-news-daily","tag-umpires","tag-bad","tag-comments","tag-heard","tag-hot","tag-mic","tag-stadium","tag-team"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1940559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/666"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1940559"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1940559\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1940560"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1940559"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1940559"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1940559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
