You could add the Mariners beating the O's and Padres walking off the Yankees.

Jays only Al east team to win today.

Of course, Vic Carapazza gets nothing for basically handing Cleveland the game with his biased officiating.

I'm impressed with Edwin's restraint. If an umpire ever did that to me when I played, I can say there's a very good chance I'd have slugged him.

As a team, the Blue Jays lead baseball with 14 ejections. They have more than the other four AL East teams combined.

Not really his fault. Every time it's been to defend one of his players who are also getting ejected. Blue Jay's lead the league in hot heads

Perhaps, if the umps would call things fairly and not use every close call as an opportunity to stick it to the Jays, we wouldn't have this problem.

I have no problem whatsoever with them reacting the way they have. Management and ownership ought to be more vocal about this, because the calls made against the Jays this year have been beyond ridiculous.

The trouble is though, that if you show up the umps all the time eventually it bites you. We may not like it, but there's a very strong reputation now to get past
