TIM TSCHIDA | Chirping Zebras Podcast | Ep #74

15 Aug 2025

Description

The boys sit down with legendary MLB umpire Tim Tschida for an absolute beauty of a chat. We’re talkin’ war stories from behind the plate, dealing with Boston sports fans who could chirp the paint off the Green Monster, and what it’s like calling games for legends — including Nolan Ryan’s no-hitter. Tim gets into how the game’s changed with replay, how hockey and baseball officiating stack up, and the wild ride to making The Show as an ump.From old-school bench-clearing brawls to the new tech creeping into every call, Tim’s seen it all. He even shares thoughts on women breaking into the umpiring ranks and why showing up ready to go every single game is the only way to survive. Pull up a stool, crack a cold one, and enjoy a couple hours with one of the best to ever do it.📲 FOLLOW THE ZEBRAS:Instagram → [@ChirpingZebrasPod]TikTok → [@ChirpingZebras]Twitter/X → [@ChirpZebras]Facebook → [Chirping Zebras Podcast]Website → [https://chirpingzebras.com]📬 BOOKING / SPONSORS / FAN CHIRPS:[email protected](We’ll read the good ones.
