College baseball umpire Reggie Drummer made a controversial call earlier this month on a strike three pitch. The moment went viral since the pitch was clearly outside the strike zone and ended the game.
In a matchup between Mississippi Valley State and New Orleans, Drummer rang up MVSU hitter Davon Mims on a pitch well outside of the zone. On the pitch just before, Mims argued with Drummer about strike two.

“We’ll see,” he replies. He is frequently smiling. He is never joking.
He broke the American League single-season home run record last year. He came within five points of batting average of the Triple Crown. He won the MVP award. He almost singlehandedly muscled the Yankees through a monthlong summer swoon.
Daniel Ricciardo won’t be on the grid for this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix. Instead, Ricciardo will spend his time at what is typically his home race as Red Bull’s reserve driver.
