On this clip from the SMQBs Podcast, the hosts react to an power-hungry moment involving veteran MLB umpire Doug Eddings and St. Louis Cardinals rookie pitcher Hancel Rincón. During the 6th inning of Rincón's MLB debut at Coors Field, Eddings halted play in the middle of an at-bat to demand through the catcher that Rincón straighten his slightly tilted hat. The incident sparked immediate outrage, leading to the ejection of Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol—who blasted Eddings' "power-hungry move"—and prompted both Cardinals and Rockies players to tilt their hats in protest the following night. The hosts break down Eddings' overreach, the racial undertones surrounding the situation, and MLB reprimanding the umpire.
