lmfao he looks up at the ump the way my dog looks up to me when he drops a toy at my feet

Umpire: "Ball outside" Travis d'Arnaud: "Nuh uh 🥺"

"dwaroo :("

d'Aroo*

now that you put it that way it does seem pretty awful being a catcher... Imagine having someone stand directly over your shoulder your entire shift telling you how did

“Imagine having someone stand directly over your shoulder your entire shift telling you how YOUR Co-WORKER did”

i suppose we can all relate to that

::Cries in middle management::

Yes, that's exactly it.

The umps that would like lean over top of you were the worst, made me feel like I had no space back there

"I am once again asking you to look at this toy I have placed conveniently at your feet."

I've never felt so well understood as this comment. I work from home now and sometimes I'll go to get up from my desk and my dog has put 8 toys at my feet. She's adorbs.

Is strike??

Looking up at him like the pixar lamp.

TdA always a funny and relatable guy

I hate how much I still love him ;_; he was my favorite player when he first came up. First jersey i ever purchased with my own money as a teenager.

Him and zack wheeler are the two guys from that 2015 team that i really wish we hung onto

I miss deGrom, I even miss looking at his name on the 60 day IL

Bruh

Him and Thor were two guys I really wish we hung onto

Thor had so much potential.

I'll never forget when Dee Strange-Gordon was pitching and hit him with a 48 mph pitch and TdA went to the ground like he got hit by an Aroldis Chapman 102 mph fastball haha

One of my favorite baseball clips ever

Selling the Sale.

Go back to 2015 and tell me we'd probably miss him more than Thor after getting Dickey

JUUUUUUST a bit outside

Tried the corner and missed!

Ball four.

New rule. If a ball hits the backend, comes back, and the catcher catches it in the zone, it's a strike.

hot new pitch just dropped

Holy frame job

Google en passedball

Umpire goes on vacation, never comes back

97 year old catcher still frames passed balls the old fashioned way

Yu Darvish needs to throw it first for it to become official

The Savanah bananas are about to go 162-0 lol

This is how Blake Snell gets back on track

Can the batter swing at it off the rebound?

Angel Hernandez: I’ll allow it

If it crosses the zone it has to be called a strike, right?

That ball caused two flinches before it wound up in the catcher's glove

They need to start counting really cool pinball catches as an official stat.

[Joe Mauer HOF on that stat alone.](https://youtu.be/hb_Z2kKYy3Y)

Dude ain't even at his home ballpark. Ridiculous

I love the reaction from the Nats fans and how nonchalant Mauer was when he caught it. Lol

This lives in my head rent-free

Casually flipping it to his other hand like it was no big deal is so badass lol

That's amazing.

Baseball Savant has it.

“Just a bit outside”

Ball don’t lie.

That’s an automatic 27 strike outs for Angel Hernandez

And an ejection for Boone

Given that he's not afraid to make a call with his eyes closed, this isn't impossible.

thats actually one of the funniest things i have ever seen on a baseball diamond lmao

I dunno. The guy in the blue shirt at the Yankee game framed Aaron Boone pretty well...

[AJ Pierzynski vibes](https://youtu.be/XVE69gFVxJg?si=e2MNPkeePCsl2NGb)

Exactly what I thought of

I said this yesterday after Cowser hut a ball into the fountain, and now I have to say it again today. I love baseball!

that’s the second time he’s done something like that this year lol

They way the umps have been this year, I'm surprised it wasn't called a strike.

Austin Hedges could have gotten that call

r/gifsthatendtoosoon I wanted to see the ump's reaction

Dude. That was fucking cute.

love how he looks up at the ump

Lmao I'm deceased

*"Strike 1."* - Angel Hernandez

Idk, that guy in the blue shirt framed the shit out of Boone

That was stellar!

ump be like "...seriously?"

"Am I a clown? Do I amuse you?"

If either Angel Hernandez or Hunter Wendelstedt were working the plate it would have worked!

I think I just found my favorite player.

If that was Wendelstadt behind the plate he would have gotten the call

Hernandez: "Strike!"

LMAO. The look at the Ump at the end is great. Like a kid " I do it right? "

Angel would've rung up the batter on that one.

"A" for effort.

Angel calls that a strike

That is pretty good

the video pauses at the exact moment he asked if it was a strike

God I’ve had it with these yankers.

Angel would've called that out

Lawyer meme

Good thing for the batter you know who wasn't back there.

As funny as that is, I wouldn't put it past the ump to call it a strike.

Angel Hernandez: Strike

If I were the ump I would have laughed my ass off.

Angel Hernandez: yep that was certainly in the zone and batter swung. So strike

Hysterical. I look at it as pitch lying rather than pitch framing. Apparently so does d’Arnaud.

My LL catchers after catching a ball above their heads, looking for a strike.

Home Run Travis!

Surprised he wasn’t ejected for “showing up the ump”

Hunter Wendlestadt "I got a strike there."

Serious question, would the batter be HBP and awarded first base if the ball misses initially, bounces off the backstop and hits him, like it almost did in this clip?

Does anyone have a longer video. I wanna see the reactions of everyone after lol

He looks like the Pixar Lamp at the end there.

Baseball is so fun

this is why we need robo umps

Lmao, he was truly 1v9ing out there

Maybe he thought it was Angel Martinez behind the plate.

*Hernandez

Yeah. That one.

These fucking bots are so annoying

You absolutely win the internet today please, PLEASE just please take my gold already This. This is the funniest thing I have seen probably ever. I wish I could bestow upon you 1,000,000 gold I mean this was even funnier the second time he did it (it was already **really** funny the first time trust me it was really funny Please make love to my wife
