Perry Costello...

Went back and watched the replay of the Ole Miss/TT championship game. I was semi-distracted with work while it was live so didn't get the home plate ump's name. He had a weird strike zone. Do we have a history with getting screwed by him... the name is very familiar for some reason but don't recall it as a regular in SEC series games. Maybe he was an SEC ump back in the day but no longer?

He’s awful and pretty well known around the league as a bad umpire.

You do not want Costello behind the plate in a game you care about. I can't remember exactly but we had an important game a few years ago with him behind the plate. We were screwed royally by him. He drew lots of ire after that. There was a parody twitter account I followed that trolled him severely.

Can't believe he's still calling games. He's worse than TV Teddy or that other bald basketball referee that screwed us this year.

It's a damn shame when officials are memorable because they are bad.
