'''The Umpire''' is the official for [[Homestar Runner]]'s baseball team. He has pale yellow skin, a squat triangle for a head, and beady black eyes. He is always seen wearing a pale blue shirt, gray pants, and brown shoes. His first appearance was in [[Where My Hat Is At?]], where he tells "the" Homestar Runner that, without his hat, he is not allowed to play in the Big Game. After Homestar finds his hat, the Umpire yells, "SAFE!" as Homestar runs across home plate. This was his only appearance for many years, until the release of [[Kick-A-Ball]]. In this cartoon, he is animated and given a voice for the first time. He acts as the umpire for the kickball game, and sounds like [[Dick Vitale]]. However, in the DVD version of Where My Hat Is At?, he sounds more like a deep-voiced Strong Bad.
