Both of those pitches were near misses.  Neither crossed the plate in the hitting zone.  They were close and Maldo framed them well, but they were both balls.
You shut your mouth.

NO that's a very good ump that has called a great and consistent game

Not really. He's given two inches off the outside edge against RHB but not even given the whole plate against LHB like some sort of Bizarro 90s Ump.

Consistently wrong isn't acceptable anymore.

You have the camera angle looking down at the plate?

Can't wait for Passan's featured article "The Two Strikes That Weren't and How the Astros Got the Out Anyway"

Exactly what I said as he popped it up- “write an article on that bitch!”

Stanek was great. His misses were unhittable and could have been called strikes. Unfortunately the ump has been very good and consistent all night and didn't bite on Maldo's framing

He has called a good game, but has missed a few, including at least one of not both of those

What are you talking about?  The hitting zone? They crossed the plate in the strike zone.

You’re dead wrong. Stanek painted 2 strikes that weren’t called. Not shading the ump but you’re fucking wrong.

Spot on. Both those dots were filled in by the fox computer. They were strikes.

Negged for being belligerently wrong and repetitive and also nonresponsive to questions. I gave you two freebies.

I’ll give you the first missed strike. But the second missed strike was a strike and should have been a strikeout.

In the major leagues where the umps are corrected based on scorecards from the automated system to try to standardize the zone?  Enlighten us on what that's like.
