Im watching the damn game...and the curve to Swisher was a strike. If you have some extenstential view of it that gives you a better view than I then Id love to see it, but the pitch to Swisher was STRIKE 3...

 

It's even with the plate when it's in the glove, it's at least 6 inches outside while crossing it, I just went frame by frame.

Sorry, I saw nothing wrong with any calls...in fact the 1-0 pitch that WAS called a ball was VERY CLOSE....it could have been called a strike. Swisher has to swing the damn bat in that situation.

 

I'm sorry, but you must be blind.

Again, with two strikes you have to protect the plate.

Strike one and strike two don't get you called out.

 

I agree there -- bad move by Swish to watch a close pitch. Still...

and only actually throws the ball 13% of the time.

Blame that part of it on the pitchers being horses*** at holding runners on.

 

My question is this: why doesn't our coaching staff stress this more?

Can I play?

 

Our 2nd baseman makes a silly error.

Japanese 2B hits the game winning homerun.

 

Ummm...Ramirez is one of the main reasons we're here.

 

Our offense is the reason we lost this game, period.

 

Buerhle was probably going to give up a run that inning, anway. We had Kazmir on the ropes in the first three innings and we let him escape.

LMAO. Yea, sure. The pitch was in the center of the plate when it hit the glove...Mr. Howell doesn't have that kinda break, but keep on believing it's a fixed game. This teams hitters screwed the poooch...blame blue all night long, but it doesn't change the fact we got taken again.
