That was strike 3, jackass.

"It happens to everybody, man. He's had 60 at-bats. A couple of years ago, I had 60 at-bats, and I was hitting .170, and everyone was ready to kill me, too. And what happened? Laser show. So, relax."
Ump has not screwed Pom twice on good strikes called ball. They were not marginal calls. Shithead.
Jesus. 1 more out. Pull it together Poms.
Some of these calls are fucking horrible. Horrible ump.
I beg to differ. He's pitched great so far. The knuckle curve is mostly working and the fast ball is spotted well most of the time. The umpire has now screwed him on two K's--not just strikes not called, but K's which should have happened.Originally Posted by TylerD
Poms looking good. Wish the offense would follow suit.
Agreed completely. None the less we got out of the inning and Poms Looks good today. Offense needs to step up.
That darn knuckle curve by McCullers is going 87 mph. No wonder it works so well.
First hit is by Holt. Go figure.
My gosh. The ump won't call strikes inside the zone for Pom, but is happy calling them outside the zone for McCullers.
I am not talking about pitches on the line. The strike was a couple inches outside and the two balls were both 2 inches inside.
My god Xander. This entire offense outside of the 10 runs against the Jays has been a dumpster fire the last couple weeks.
Xander seems to take the good pitches and flail at the ones he shouldn't. He was a good 2 strike hitter then it vanished once he can't lay off a breaking ball.
Finally, a call for Pom. Ump has no idea where the outside of the plate is. Actually, the inside too for that matter.
This ump is giving the outside corner.

Meh. That called fast ball strike was outside and that knuckle curve is like a slider on steroids--it goes 87 mph and breaks sharply down and away.
And frankly they will come inside and get it smoked.
