Let's hope it's not an issue the rest of the series.

Umps in many sports seem to have bias and it’s a shame bc they ruin the game. Can’t we have a sport where the officials respect the game?

No, not until the officials are computers.

It's high time balls and strikes WERE called by computer.

The technology has existed for several years now, and is routinely shown in MLB, just to compare with the Human Umpire's call. Last nights softball game was about as blatant a case of Home Team bias that I have seen all season out of an Umpire.

The officials by and large do respect the games.

However, the influence of the home crowd on officials is a real thing. So if you want anything completely “unbiased” - you have to go with non-human officiating.

Well a non-human Chimp could have been as consistent as that ump was last night.
