MLB umpire Joe West got the attention of people all over sports talk radio when he said the Yankees and Red Sox take too long to play. He also said, "It's pathetic and embarrassing."
Joe West was way out of line with his comments. He gets paid to umpire these games and he should keep his mouth shut. He is a veteran umpire and he should know how to act like a professional.
Players and executives were also taken back by these comments. According to ESPN''s Buster Olney, they said he should maybe call more strikes to move the game along.
Action hasn't been taken against West by the MLB. I don't think he will get suspended and I believe the MLB will handle this issue behind closed doors.
