I’m sure everyone remembers that dirty play by a coward named Chase Utley. In case you didn’t, here it is again:

Sure enough, there would be people who defended Utley even with Ruben Tejada suffering a broken leg. The best response came from Justin Upton: 

If that was a superstar shortstop we would have a Tulo Rule being enforced tomorrow

Did we hear outrage over the play?  Yes. However, there was no outrage over the umpiring. This crew botched the play entirely. They missed Tejada missing second base. They missed Utley interfering with Tejada, which would’ve resulted in an inning ending double play. They also missed Tejada trying to throw the ball, which would’ve made it a non-reviewable neighborhood play. 

Did anyone call to look into the umpiring?  No, of course not. However, when this happens . . . 

. . . people call for an investigation into the umpires. 

MLB needs to look into ejection of Troy Tulowitzki and respond appropriately, with precedent in mind. https://t.co/rEYcVZX50V Notes/links.

Justin Upton was right. All it took was for something to happen to Tulo instead of Tejada for someone to take notice the umpires have been terrible.
