I don't want to single any umpires out by name, but Masake Nonaka is the worst umpire that I have seen behind the plate in the FSL in a while. For those of you who doubt my assessment take a look at Thursday night's box score and look at the number of walks against Dan Brauer and the number of walks tonight against Pat Overholt.

Both pitchers had great numbers going into their games and after facing Nonaka they looked like they were 16 year old rookies.

In fairness both team's had to face the same umpire, but the Threshers were not able to capitalize on all of the walks they got.
