Seattle lost tonight.  Only 3.5 back boys!

wake me around memorial day and show me the standings.

we lost 3/5 starters and i love our rotation.  and (most of) our bullpen.

once we hit, we'll be dangerous.  last year we were built for the regular season.  this year, we are really built for the playoffs.

Also, just wanna say that the third pitch of McHugh's three-pitch K in the second inning was one of the filthiest pitches I've ever seen. It was outside... still outside... still outside... then jumps into the strike zone, dead center, at the last possible moment. Morales was cursing it, it was so good.

Insanely good pitching when he had command. Best I've ever seen him pitch.

Also, the first pitch in this video is it:

Just wicked. That's one helluva slider.

Thanks to this extraordinary gentleman, I got to be part of the pre-game ceremonies on the field as well. It was absolutely incredible.

Not enough rep for Big Shep.

Umps can get away with pretty much anything.  I doubt there will be any consequences.  Just look at some of the shitty ones who have been terrible at their job for decades.

Interesting article on the matter, https://blogs.fangraphs.com/can-umpires-really-do-anything-they-want/

 

It's amazing mlb would let umpires blatantly target a team/coach with such bitchass behavior.
