Home Plate Umpire Chris Guccione is a Small, Small Man
By Kyle Scott
Published:
A.J. Burnett (followed shortly by Ryne Sandberg) was ejected for arguing balls and strikes in the second inning by home plate umpire Chris Guccione, who is a small, sensitive man. That’s pretty much the whole story. But I love Jayson Werth’s non-reaction to everything. He’s a cool cat and I kind of miss him, but also hate myself for using the term “cool cat” non-ironically.
The Phillies lost, 11-0.
