The Umpire is the official for Homestar's baseball team. 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.
According to the DVD commentary of "Where My Hat Is At?", he was supposed to appear in an Easter egg in a Strong Bad Email made shortly before the commentary, but it fell through.
