Alright . I’ve bitched about posters bitching about the announcers.

but Brian just said he hopes we don’t go to robot umps because he wants catcher’s to still be able to fool umps with framing?!?!

automated balls& strikes takes away framing?

That's a gotdam shame.   Just call the fucking pitch.

I think the Astros staff will somehow come through it ok...what with the absence of the bullshit pity calls by HPUs bestowing mercy upon opposing batters.

Nothing better than a good framing performance by a catcher.

A lot of the sabrmetric types love that shit too.  As teams have become aware of it and started to track and teach framing, the gap between the best and worst in the league has narrowed a lot.

Good job Lance.  Some shitty luck, especially in the 1st and he'd be leaving with the lead if not for that passed ball.  Bats and bullpen need to bring this one home.

How was his ERA 4?

He walks people. If we didn't swing at a pitch in that inning the bases would have been loaded.

Rizzo digs in on the stripe of the batters box and gets accolades for getting HPB;  and Loaisiga pitches with run a foot inside the plate.

At a certain point you park on the plate, no?

Yes. Every Astros that came to the plate would have been hit by a pitch in that inning.

He’s throwing 100. The part of the order you’d consider doing that with just went down. I’m not getting anybody hit in the hand up 3-0.

That little fucker is starting to piss me off.

Also, since when is the 2nd row a no doubter?

When he hit it, there was zero doubt it was gone.

 

No doubter.

Whatever,

Evidence says it was fucking gone.

Ok then. Stupidly focused on the wrong thing (the game). Will have to shift said focus based on pertinent info.
