The umpires are paid
to make all the calls,
to tell us when their strikes
or foul balls.
They are who brings
the outcome in a game,
even when their decisions
seem to be lame.
I have seen so many
make the wrong call,
like when calling a strike
when it was a ball.
It's because of those calls
that a team can win or lose,
you just hope that the right call
is the one they choose.
Don't try to argue
because they have the last word,
and they act like you trying
to them is absurd.
They never like to hear the argument
and what the point is about,
so instead of listening
they just throw you out.
We are all human
and we all make mistakes,
so why do they decide
who gets a break.
