## Resource

Hancel Rincon’s big league debut turned chaotic when umpire Doug Eddings clashed with Cardinals manager Oli Marmol over Rincon’s hat—and then compounded the mess by missing a key call and calling an unfair pitch clock violation on Justin Bruihl. The fallout? Marmol was ejected, players across the league rallied behind Rincon, and former Cardinal Kyle Gibson called Eddings’ behavior a “power trip,” demanding MLB intervene. Now, the league faces pressure to hold the umpire accountable—or risk setting a dangerous precedent. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
