MLB Gameday Thread: April 10th - April 16th

[A.E]

No it didn't lol check the replay if crosses right at the very corner of the zone

"According to ESPN Stats & Information, Kulpa had 31 missed calls Friday night, tied for the seventh most in a game this season, and the called third strike on Ortiz was 5½ inches below the strike zone."

Show me a replay with a side angle to prove otherwise.

 

[A.E]

3-1 call to Ortiz:

And then Kulpa's 3rd strike call on Hanley:

 

[Big Papi]

It's just a cool thing to agree with that umpire. Most Yankee fans even agree he was ridiculous for that. Ump show 101

 

[Mudge]

Mea Kulpa.

 

[Mudge]

3-1 call to Ortiz:

And then Kulpa's 3rd strike call on Hanley:

FYI. I believe the graphic above was the 3-2 pitch on Ortiz, not the 3-1. Also, for clarification, the called third strike on Ramirez was in the 8th inning, not when the bases were loaded in the 9th.

Good analysis by ESPN's Schoenfield here:

Phillies ended their 3 game skid last night against the Marlins. Up to 17-14 on the season. The NL East is going to be stupid competitive this season.

I don't see their success lasting.

 

[A.E]

Reds bullpen has now surrendered a league-leading 19 homers this season. From Chapman to this garbage. FML

 

[brett05]

Twins hitters had Sale on the ropes in the 1st and let him off. 3-2 Sox in the 7th.

No one would call that on the ropes.

 

[PWNdroia]

Red Sox need to cut Buchholz. His poor performance is way overdue. I cannot believe the organization trusts this guy so much to succeed.

 

[RunSoHard]

I hate off-days, especially when the Phillies are playing decent baseball.

 

[PWNdroia]

Everyone sees me as the community negative Nancy for the Red Sox, but I never once doubted Jackie Bradley Jr. I had faith in this guy from the start. He's an amazing player and showing his stride this year.

 

[A.E]

Sawx kicking the shit out of the A's

 

[PWNdroia]

I appreciate the 11 runs... but why is Ortiz sitting again?

 

[PWNdroia]

And we're starting a career minor league pitcher... great.

 

[RunSoHard]

The last 7 victories by the Phillies have been 1 run games. Talk about playing with my emotions.
