And out of 8 of those balls, 3 were strikes.Excellent patience by [i refuse to type his name] after two consecutive walks.
Not going to get in his grill over this one. I'm sure he knew that Fister was going to try and float one over home. He put good wood on it, it was a very good defensive play and a bit of a slow runner.Excellent patience by [i refuse to type his name] after two consecutive walks.

You expect them to change for the post season, especially starting out with Young? We took a total of 7 walks in the 5 games against the A's.Ump has a tight strike zone so what do the Tigers do? Go up there and swing at anything close. ####### dumb team.
Come on...this isn't Little League. The pitcher's struggling a bit....that might be the best pitch he's see. Plus...did you really want to sit and watch another....take strike:strike 1, foul one off:stike 2, swing and miss:strike 3?There's a right way and a wrong way to play the game. The result is irrelevant.You take the first pitch after back-to-back walks.
Or not.I sense a Robbie BLAST coming up.
He is starting to get on my nerves.PERALTA!!!
I'm not one to complain about the balls and strikes...but the strike zones are quite a bit different.Pettitte getting strikes outside the zone. Fister gets ball calls on pitches down the middle. Just horrible behind the plate tonight.
What game are you watching?TBS spent 2 innings on a foul home run last night and you get one crap replay of Cano being safe. This is rich.
And Fister isn't being squeezed, his late movement is moving late, out of the zone.
And WOW what a turn on AJax...
Laird is doing no favors, lax framing. What are you basing this on, their silly little box?What game are you watching?TBS spent 2 innings on a foul home run last night and you get one crap replay of Cano being safe. This is rich.

agreed.Can't really ##### about the umps when they gift you that call at first, saving you at least one run
I readily admit that made up for that. So far anyways.Can't really ##### about the umps when they gift you that call at first, saving you at least one run
Thats what I was just saying, exactly. Whether he's jumpy or what have you, but once upon a time, he'd get the the air to right and thats not a bad thing here.Edit, saying here, not on the boardyou can clearly see whats wrong with arods swing. he has zero bat speed. so he tries to cheat to catch up to the fastball and pulls a ball he normally drives the other way into an easy ground ball double play.
Of course, maybe there aren't so many baserunners if the strike zone isn't so tiny.agreed.Can't really ##### about the umps when they gift you that call at first, saving you at least one run
All of the aboveOf course, maybe there aren't so many baserunners if the strike zone isn't so tiny.agreed.Can't really ##### about the umps when they gift you that call at first, saving you at least one run
Who knows..but Garcia is just not ready for playoff action. Totally overmatched at the plate.How on earth did the home plate ump call that a swing?
