MLB 2018 Umpire Injuries

[travishopkins]

I love how cervelli just gives the ump a bear hug when he gets hit

[balbarith]

cervelli is one of the mlb players i respect the most. he knows how bad it is to be hit by these pitches on a daily basis. he not only helps umpire's but also fellow players.

Cervelli gave out a lot of hugs in this video. LOL

[zimmerman]

I wish Cervelli would hold me like he holds those umpires.

It just warms my heart to see the players instantly get to the umpire 😍❤🤗

1:01 There's a slight delay here while we wait for Greg Gibson, the home plate umpire.

[Crismodin]

I like how the MLB takes concussions extremely serious and all physical contact verrrry serious but in the NFL they don't care at all about any physical issues.

[banhammer]

The pitches never look fast enough to really hurt anyone, then you see how the face plate reacts to being hit and that is when you know that it must really hurt.

WE SEE GREG GIBSON SUIT UP TO BECOME:

GREG GIBSON, THE HOME PLATE UMPIRE

[larsonmarkov]

Best part. Greg Gibson becoming the home plate umpire

I was a catcher back in high school on the girl’s fast pitch team. I remember taking a foul tip right square in the mask and it totally knocked me silly. Hurt like hell. I can’t imagine taking a hit to the mask from a pitch going 95 plus mph.

Majority of this video is just the Redsoxs and Angels. The home plate umpires must be cursed or something

[marvides]

The first pitch in the video. Cervelli, no wonder he holds the Ump, he knows how it feels. Glad for his brain that he is moving to a different position.

My dad played softball and I’d always go to the games. A few years back, a player fouled off the pitch and it hit the umpire square in the mask. It knocked the umpire out cold. The umpire was taken via ambulance to the hospital and the game was cancelled because they didn’t have another umpire.

Hi, I'm William holmes and I love this video of umpires getting hurt, it's my all time favorite.

[patrickpyro]

0:52 you can hear a guy yell walk it off

[westvirginia]

I wonder if mlb will ever start having 5 umpires, have one in reserve for the night, and they can rotate the reserve every game!

[nickmanville]

At 1:50 when the floor is cut out by the info screen it looks like theres just a tiny baseball player and I laughed so hard haha

[timothybarham]

I see the my Angel's team is hard on umpires, they're featured in at least 4 parts of that video.

The mask prevents direct injury obviously but that shockwave of energy hitting the umps head can give a concussion.
