9 Reactions To Dodgers-Cardinals Home Plate Umpire Dale Scott
By Chris Kral
If you haven't heard by now, Los Angeles Dodgers fans aren't too happy with home plate umpire Dale Scott's calls at last night's NLDS Game Three versus the St. Louis Cardinals.
Aside from a seemingly generous strike zone, Scott also appeared to clap when Yasiel Puig was struck out during the third inning.
Here's 10 reactions to Dodgers-Cardinals home plate umpire Dale Scott:
1. Jokes.
Dale Scott called the ceremonial first pitch a strike.

2. "You get a strike!"
Rosenthal should throw one into the dugout to see if Dale Scott will call it strike three.

3. More jokes.
@jaymohr37 If Dale Scott was an air traffic controller, we'd have planes landing in Simi Valley instead of LAX. #jaymohrsports

5. Matt Kemp is not amused.
6. Then people really weren't impressed...
MLB probably gonna fine Matt Kemp for being critical of umpires, but Dale Scott is the one that should be punished.

7. Things just got real.
8. Cemented with stats.
Dale Scott, the ump for STL-LA, had a correct call % of 83.7 on the 256 pitches thrown. Missing on 42 pitches in the playoffs seems bad @MLB

9. Something all Dodgers fans want.
At least Dale Scott isn't behind the plate today
