Mics picked up Giants manager Bob Melvin's entire NSFW tirade towards the umpire
Who needs Jomboy Media's lip-reading skills when you have the microphones on the Tigers' FanDuel Sports Network broadcast? The mics understood the assignment — that's for sure.
With Logan Webb on the mount in the fifth inning for the Giants on Tuesday night, home plate umpire Tony Randazzo accurately called a low sinker for a ball. Yet, he turned to the Giants dugout to tell manager Bob Melvin to stop barking about balls and strikes.
Randazzo then said, "That's it!" And he ejected Melvin. That was when the chaos broke loose, and the microphones picked up almost every word. (Warning: The video contains strong language)

Melvin got right in Randazzo's face and demanded that the umpire call a consistent zone. "You're killing us," Melvin said. He went on to tell Randazzo that he was "(expletive) better than that."
Again, the call that set Melvin off there was correct. But the Giants manager was still fuming over a missed strikeout call on Patrick Bailey.

And despite those fireworks from Melvin, Randazzo had a solid performance behind the plate. According to Ump Scorecards, he accurately called 143 of 149 taken pitches (96 percent accuracy). And he was perfect on called ball accuracy.

Melvin might have been a bit harsh there.
