Umpire Mike Winters likes to talk a bit of a blue steak. He’s the umpire who 2 years ago angered Milton Bradley by telling him to “shut the fuck up and play the game,” Bradley complained that Winters was “treating him like a piece of shit,” and Winters told Bradley that he was “fucking piece of shit.” Bradley went after him and tore his own ACL in the process. Oops. Also, in 1998 apparently Winters told Charlie Hayes to “go fuck himself” when arguing balls and strikes which made HAYES go crazy. Clearly Winters is a people person.
So, it’s fair to say that Winters likes telling players to go fuck themselves. This video, captured from Saturday’s Dodgers/Phillies game features Matt Kemp getting a called third strike and then complaining to Winters about the call. Winters, thanks to the Fox microphones can clearly be heard telling Kemp that no, in fact he isn’t “fucking kidding.” Fun!
