Ford Frick and Will Harridge urged strong penalties to curb umpire baiting by managers and players. The piece lauds umpires as well trained and honest, cites Billy Southworth and Eddie Dyer as least troublesome, and argues insults harm the game more than rivalries, noting legends like Walter Johnson and Ted Williams show restraint.
